Appendix D:
Privacy Statement for
Magnia SG20
Toshiba America Information Systems has created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment
to privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for the Magnia SG20 product.
The Magnia SG20 Administration Web site contains links to www.toshibapc.com, www.csd.toshiba.com, and other
Internet Web sites. These links will sometimes pass the product name, such as “Magnia SG20”, and the product serial
number to enhance navigation and/or simplify data input. For example, the “Register Now!” link in the Administration
Web site passes both of these values so that the user is taken directly to the Magnia SG20 Internet product registration
page and so the serial number can be pre-filled in the serial number field to help avoid registration errors.
Our www.csd.toshiba.com site’s product registration form requires you to give us your name, company (if for business
use), model number, serial number and purchase date. Your contact information is used to contact you about your
product. Users may opt-out of receiving mail regarding product information and updates by clicking a box on the
product registration form. We may use product registration data to benefit your overall experience on our Internet site,
www.csd.toshiba.com.
See our privacy statement for www.csd.toshiba.com for further information about our Internet privacy practices.
The Magnia SG20 offers various services that may require the user to provide information via a sign-up or registration
form. When this is the case, only the information provided on the form is sent. No other user data is retrieved from the
Magnia SG20.
The Magnia SG20 contains a Health Monitoring Service. The sign-up form for this service requires you to give your
name, company (if for business use), model number, serial number, and contact information. Your contact information
is used to contact you in regards to this service. For users that purchase the Health Monitoring Service, various
statistics about your Magnia SG20 can be sent to www.toshibapc.com on a daily basis. These statistics include all of
the information found under the Magnia SG20 Administration Web site’s health report plus information regarding your
last successful backup and backup type. No backup data or any other user data is sent.
The Magnia SG20 contains a feature that automatically checks for software upgrades. This feature is enabled by
default for the benefit of our customers. To make this feature work, the product name will occasionally be sent to
www.toshibapc.com so that a list of possibly needed software upgrades can be downloaded. This auto-checking
feature can be disabled via the Magnia SG20 Administration Web site under the Services tab’s Upgrades page.
The Magnia SG20 contains Web links to other Internet sites. Toshiba is not responsible for the privacy practices or the
content of such Web sites.
Your information may be shared with third party contractors for the purposes of performing services for Toshiba
America Information Systems.
