Privacy
Exxon
Mobil Corporation and its affiliated companies,
("ExxonMobil") appreciate your interest in this Web site
and other related or linked ExxonMobil sites (Site).
Your privacy is important and we want you to understand
our practices with respect to gathering information from
visitors to the Site and with respect to the uses we
make of that information. Please check each portion or
page of the Site that you visit. Certain portions or
pages of the Site may contain changes to the Privacy
Statement applicable to your use of that portion or
page, for example, certain applications may request
additional information from you.
Information and
Uses
When someone visits the Site, our web
servers automatically gather information that allows the
site to communicate with the visitor's computer during
the visit. We also track such information as the number
of visits to the site, which parts of the site visitors
select, IP address (the Internet address assigned to
your computer from your Internet Service Provider),
domain type, browser type (e.g., Netscape or Internet
Explorer), date and time of day. We use those types of
information for statistical purposes that help us design
and administer the Site. Those types of information do
not disclose Personal Information that would permit us
to identify or locate individual
visitors.
Privacy concerns focus on Personal
Information, that is, information that could identify a
specific individual such as names, addresses, e-mail
addresses, and telephone numbers. If during your visit
you personalize the Site, complete an order form, enter
a contest, or submit other information to us, you may
provide us with Personal Information. We may collect and
use that Personal Information to provide you with
products or services, to bill you for products and
services you request, to market products and services
which we think may be of interest to you, or to
communicate with you for other purposes.
As
explained below in the section on Dissemination of
Information to Third Parties, we do not distribute or
sell Personal Information to third parties for the
purpose of allowing them to market their products and
services to you; moreover, as explained in the Opt
Out/Modify Information section, we will undertake to
remove your Personal Information from our database
within a reasonable time in such a way that you will not
receive future communications from us. If you notify us
that Personal Information previously submitted to our
site is no longer accurate, we will make appropriate
corrections.
Information Placed on Your
Computer
We may store some information
(commonly known as a "cookie") on your computer when you
look at or use the Site. This information facilitates
customizing your use of the Site and ensures that you do
not need to re-enter your details every time you visit
it. You can erase or block this information from your
computer if you want to. (Your 'help' screen or user
manual should tell you how to do this.)

Children
The Site contains information
that may be of special interest to children, but
ExxonMobil does not seek through the Site to gather
Personal Information from or about persons under the age

practices of any site from which you linked to our Web
site. We recommend that you check the privacy policy of

Dissemination of Information to Third
Parties
Communicating via the Internet and
sending information, products, and services to you by
other means necessarily involves your Personal
Information passing through or being handled by
third-parties, but ExxonMobil does not sell or
distribute your Personal Information to third parties
for purposes of allowing them to market their products
and services to you.
We employ other companies
and individuals to perform functions on our behalf.

postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information
from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing
assistance, processing credit card payments and
providing customer service. They have access to Personal
Information needed to perform their functions, but may
not use it for other purposes.

collected by ExxonMobil may be transferred among its
various divisions and affiliated companies, around the
world which may involve transfer from countries within
the European Economic Area to countries outside the
E.E.A. By submitting data on the Site, the visitor is
providing explicit consent to these transfers, including
transborder transmission of data covered by this Privacy
Statement.

with recruiting or hiring. Sensitive information
includes a number of types of data relating to: race or
ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or other
