McMahon Engineering is committed to protecting your privacy
That is why we have adopted this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy is intended to describe how your
personal information is processed and used, and we will make every effort to ensure that
our activities keep within the spirit of this Privacy Policy. Please note that by visiting
and using McMahon Engineering you are accepting the practices described in
this Privacy Policy.
What Information is McMahon Engineering gathering about its visitors and how is it being used?
Every computer connected to the Internet is provided with a domain name (e.g. microsoft.com) and an
IP Address (e.g. 212.145.85.45). When a visitor requests a page from within the McMahon Engineering website, our Web Servers automatically identify and log the HTTP request that is made
to our Web Server. This information reveals nothing personal about you. In fact, the only information
that we automatically gather and log is as follows:
• The IP Address of the Site that may have Referred you.
• Your IP Address
• The Web Page that you may have linked to us from, if any.
• The Product Identifier for Version and Make of Browser (e.g. Internet Explorer)
• The Operating System platform that you may be running (e.g. Macintosh or Windows)
• Search Words or Terms that are passed from a Search Engine (e.g. Google, Altavista, or Lycos)
There is absolutely nothing special about the information just described, and the practice of collecting
this data has been generally standardized by virtually every Web Server on the Internet today.
The purpose for this information is actually two-fold. One, McMahon Engineering has
found it advantageous to examine visitor traffic in its aggregate, so that we can ensure maximum
compatibility for the various Browsers and Operating Systems that visit our site. Additionally,
as any business should attest, it is our desire to generate greater amounts of visitor traffic.
By analyzing visitation patterns, referring URLs and Search Engine terms, we can strategically
enhance our exposure on the Internet.
What about Cookies?
Cookies are small pieces of data that are transferred to your computer's hard drive through your
Web browser from our Web Server. A cookie cannot read data from your hard disk or read cookie
files that may have been created from other sites. The McMahon Engineering website
utilises cookies as a means of providing personalisation features to our visitors. For example,
we utilise cookies to remember settings (background sound selections, preferences, etc.) that you
may have made at our website.
You can choose whether to accept cookies by changing the settings of your browser. Typically,
by accessing the browser's help feature you can obtain information on how to prevent your
browser from accepting all cookies or to notify you when a cookie is being sent. If you choose
not to accept these cookies, your experience at our website and other websites may be diminished
and some features may not work as intended.
What other information does McMahon Engineering request?
We may also request your e-mail address or mailing address for the purposes of conducting a survey,
adding you to our mailing list which will be developed soon, or by your request to have someone
contact you for additional information. Whenever we request the identity of a visitor, we will
clearly indicate the purpose of the inquiry before the information is requested. We maintain a strict
"No Spam" policy that means we do not intend to sell, rent, or otherwise give your e-mail address to
a third-party, without your consent.
In addition, McMahon Engineering will not send you e-mail that you have not agreed to receive.
If you are a member of our Mailing List, you will be contacted with announcements, news, portfolio
additions, and new products or services. You have the option of "Unsubscribing" from our
Mailing List at any time, thereby disabling any further such e-mail communication from being sent to you.
If you wish to have specific communications with a member of the McMahon Engineering staff,
you will be required to provide specific information that will be routed to the appropriate contact within
McMahon Engineering.
Will McMahon Engineering disclose the information collected to Third Parties?
McMahon Engineering will disclose your personal information or any of its log file information
when required by law or in the good-faith belief that such actions are necessary to:
1. Conform to the edicts of the law or comply with a legal process served on McMahon Engineering.
2. Protect and defend the rights or property of McMahon Engineering, or visitors of McMahon Engineering.
3. Identify persons who may be violating the law, the legal notice, or the rights of third parties.
4. Cooperate with the investigations of purported unlawful activities.
McMahon Engineering uses reasonable precautions to keep the information disclosed to us secure.
McMahon Engineering reserves the right to transfer information in connection with the sale of
all or part of McMahon Engineering capital stock or assets to any third party. Furthermore, we
are not responsible for any breach of security or for any actions of any third parties that receive the
information. McMahon Engineering also provides "links" to a wide variety of other web sites
on the Internet. We are not responsible for their Privacy Policies or how those web sites manage information
about their users. We strongly urge you to check with those web sites to determine their privacy policy.
Any changes to this Privacy Policy will be posted on this page so that you are always aware of the information
that we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it.
