RS is committed to safeguarding your privacy online. Please read the following
policy to understand how your personal information will be treated when you use
or register on the RS Online site.

What this policy covers:

 * What personally identifiable information is collected from you
 * What does RS do to protect your personal data online?

 * How your information is used
 * Who is collecting your information
 * With whom your information may be shared
 * What choices are available to you regarding collection, use, and distribution
   of your information

WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION DOES RS ONLINE COLLECT FROM ME?

RS Online collects information in several ways:

Some personal information is gathered when you register. During registration, RS

telephone number, fax number, email address, company name, address, company's
area of business, job technology, job function, purchasing influence, number of
employees in your company, your primary product interest and how you heard about
the site.

We may also record some details of how you use the site, such as adverts you
click on, products you search for, products you purchase, and information you
download. If you accessed this site following a search on the internet, we may
record the search you undertook and how it relates to your use of this site.

We may keep copies of information you submit when you send email feedback to the
site, ask a technical question, or report a problem. If you contact RS Online in
writing we may keep a record of that correspondence. RS Online also occasionally
asks users to complete surveys that we use for research purposes.


WHAT DOES RS DO TO PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL DATA ONLINE?

RS always aim to deliver the highest level of service and security to our
customers and RS Online has been specifically designed with security in mind.

In order to ensure the security and protection of your personal details whenever
you submit any sensitive information such as credit card number and account
details, we use the following security methods:

128 bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption - the latest technology to encode
and protect your data - which is your guarantee for a safe and secure
transaction.

The RS VeriSign Security Guarantee pops up whenever you submit sensitive
information as an indication that the current information will be encrypted.
This means that your information is protected and safe to submit.

Sensitive credit card information stored on our in-house systems is also held in
encrypted format.

Your RS Online Account Information and RS Online Personal Profile are
password-protected so that you and only you have access to this personal
information. You may edit your RS Online Account Information and RS Online
Personal Profile by using your RS Online user name and password and by clicking
on the Update My Details button on your home page navigation bar. We recommend
that you do not divulge your password to anyone. RS Online will never ask you
for your password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited email.
