Your privacy on freeborders.com
This website is administered by Freeborders.
We want you to feel secure when visiting our
site and are committed to maintaining your
privacy when doing so.
The following provides an overview of how
we protect your privacy during your visit.
What information do we gather?
Information on freeborders.com is gathered
in two ways: (1) indirectly (for example,
through our site's technology); and (2) directly
(for example, when you provide information
on various pages of freeborders.com).
One example of information we collect indirectly
is through our Internet access logs. When
you access freeborders.com, your Internet
address is automatically collected and is
placed in our Internet access logs.
We collect information directly from you
in a number of ways, some of which we describe
in this Privacy Statement. One way is through
the use of cookies. Cookies are small files
of information which save and retrieve information
about your visit to freeborders.com—for example,
how you entered our site, how you navigated
through the site, and what information was
of interest to you. The cookies we use identify
you merely as a number. (If you are uncomfortable
regarding cookies use, please keep in mind
you can disable cookies on your computer by
changing the settings in preferences or options
menu in your browser.)
We also collect information
when you voluntarily submit it to us. Throughout
our site, we provide the opportunity to register
for an event or conference, order a white
paper, or participate in an online survey.
When we collect this type of information,
we will notify you as to why we are asking
for information and how this information will
be used. It is completely up to you whether
or not you want to provide it.
How do we use this information?
We analyze it to determine what is most effective
about our site, to help us identify ways to
improve it, and eventually, to determine how
we can tailor freeborders.com to make it more
effective. We may also use data for other
purposes, which we would describe to you at
the point we collect the information.
Will we share this with
outside parties?
As a global organization, data we collect
may be transferred internationally throughout
Freeborders' worldwide organization. We will
not sell individual information and will share
it only with our advisors.
What about sensitive personal data?
We do not generally seek to collect sensitive
personal data through this site. If we do
seek to collect such data, we will ask you
to consent to our proposed uses of the data.
Do we give you access
to your information?
You are entitled to know whether we hold information
about you and, if we do, to have access to
that information and require it to be corrected
if it is inaccurate.
What about data security?
We take appropriate steps to maintain the
security of your data on freeborders.com.
You should understand that the open nature
of the Internet is such that data may flow
over networks without security measures and
may be accessed and used by people other than
those for whom the data is intended. |
