- User IDs and Passwords - Provide you with access to your profile areas and to protected content.
- Account Information - Tells us more about who you are, how to contact you, and your address information. Also contains any preferences you have provided, such as interests.

Protection of your Information
We protect the personal information you share with us. We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input. Also, access to your personal information is limited to people who need it to do their job.
Authorized third-party agents may also need access to some of your personal information. For example, if we need to ship something to you, we must share your name and address with a shipping company. We only provide third-party agents with the minimum amount of information needed to complete the requested service or transaction. We do not otherwise share your personal information with third-parties, unless you have granted us permission to do so.
Children's Privacy
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If we learn that we have personal information on a child under the age of 13, we will delete that information from our systems.
Retention of your Information
Mindspeed will not retain your personal information longer than is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.
Reviewing and Updating your Information
We need your help in making sure your personal information is correct in our systems. Please notify us of changes to your name, address, title, phone number or e-mail address. Our site allows you to update your information yourself via the update profile pages.
