Your privacy on Centivity.com - This web site is administered by Centivity.
The primary purpose of Centivity.com is to be a dynamic resource and
business tool to help you create your future. 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 Centivity.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 Centivity.com).
- One example of information we collect indirectly is through
our Internet access logs. When you access Centivity.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 Centivity.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 Centivity.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? Data we collect may
be transferred internally through Centivity's
organization. We will not sell individual information
and will share it only with our advisors. There will be other
times when
we need to share
information, for example, in the case of an event where
we need to provide our caterer with meal preference information.
But
again,
before you submit
any information, we will notify you as to why we are
asking for
specific information and it is completely up to you whether
or not you want to
provide it.
- 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. We
may also collect some sensitive personal data incidentally.
By providing us with unsolicited sensitive personal data, you
consent
to our using
the data subject to applicable law as described in this Privacy
Statement. The references to "sensitive personal data" are
to the various categories of personal data identified by data
privacy laws as requiring special treatment, including in some
circumstances the
need to obtain explicit consent. These categories comprise
personal identity numbers, personal data about personality
and private life,
racial or ethnic
origin, nationality, political opinions, membership of political
parties or movements, religious, philosophical or other similar
beliefs, membership
of a trade union or profession or trade association, physical
or mental health, genetic code, addictions, sexual life, property
matters or criminal
record (including information about suspected criminal activities).
- What about data security? We take appropriate steps to maintain
the security of your data on Centivity.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.
That's it in a nutshell. The short of it is—we are interested
in maintaining your privacy and creating a valuable resource
for you to use.
