Privacy Statement for OCP International Partnership
The purpose of this OCP International Partnership Association, Inc.
(“OCP-IP”) privacy statement is to inform you, among other things, as to
what information may be collected from you while you visit our site, how
such information may be used by OCP-IP, with whom such information may be
shared, your choices regarding the collection of such information, your
ability to edit, update, correct or delete such information and the security
procedures that we have implemented to protect your privacy. At OCP-IP we
are firmly committed to protecting your privacy. This privacy statement
applies solely to information collected by www.ocpip.org and not by any
other Web sites.
Registration
All visitors to the OCP-IP Web site (the “OCP-IP Site”) will be required to
complete a brief registration form during their initial visit to the OCP-IP
Site. The registration form will require a user’s name, e-mail address,
phone number and name of employer, if applicable. The OCP-IP Site is
separated into two sections: one section that is open to all users and a
second section that is limited to Members only. In order to access the
Members only section, a user must join OCP-IP by completing the Membership
Application, executing all membership agreements referenced therein, and
paying a membership fee (see Membership Application section below). Personal
information collected on Membership Applications will be used in the manner
discussed below.
IP Address
Your IP address will be used to help diagnose problems with our server, to
generally administer the OCP-IP Site and to gather broad demographic
information of visitors to the OCP-IP Site.
Membership Application
OCP-IP’s Membership Application requires users to provide certain contact
information and demographic information including name, company name, e-mail
address, phone number and zip code. By completing the Membership
Application, providing the information requested and executing the
Membership Agreement and all related documents, a user agrees to be bound by
the terms of certain organizational documents of OCP-IP as well as the
Membership Agreement itself. Additionally, Members may be required to sign a
Non-Disclosure Agreement.
Use of Contact Information
Once an Application is accepted and membership dues have been paid, contact
information originally provided on the Membership Application will be used
to send Members information about and updates on OCP-IP and the Open Core
Protocol Specification (the “OCP-IP Specification”). Names and e-mail
addresses of Members will be made available to other Members in a contact
list format in a designated password-protected area of the OCP-IP Site in
order to facilitate communication between industry players. Members may,
however, opt-out of having their information placed on the contact list and
may decline the receipt of future mailings from OCP-IP by following the
procedures set forth in the Choice/Opt-Out section below. Other than the
names and e-mail addresses provided in the designated password-protected
area of the OCP-IP Site, contact and other personal information of Members
and users will not be made available to third parties other than as
specifically set forth below and will be accessed only by OCP-IP and its
web-administration partner, for OCP-IP related purposes.
Membership List
At OCP-IP we value the privacy of our Members and our users. We assure you

will be provided in a password protected area of the OCP-IP Site that can be
accessed only by other Members, if you do not feel comfortable with your
information being made available, you may choose to have it removed from
display (see Choice/Opt-Out section below).
