How does Privacy Compliance Group collect and use my information?

Information you provide
Privacy Compliance Group collects personal information when you:

  • Request products or services
  • Register for a member account in order to receive privacy resources. Name, company, phone, e-mail are collected and will only be used to provide you with the information and services you've requested.
  • Contact Privacy Compliance Group with a question or suggestion in which we collect your name, e-mail address and any comments you have. We only use this information to respond to and/or resolve your question or concern.
  • Apply for employment with Privacy Compliance Group. We ask you to submit your contact information and resume. This information will only be used to evaluate your qualifications for the desired position and possibly to contact you for further information.

Optional information
Required fields are marked with a red asterisk (*). Optional information is requested to help us better understand our clients, customers and Web visitors. If you have requested that we send you additional information regarding Privacy Compliance Group products, service and events, we may also use the optional information to fulfill this request.

Technical information
When you visit our Web site, Privacy Compliance Group may collect technical information that does not by itself identify a specific individual. This information (sometimes referred to as "non-personally identifiable information") may include the address (or "URL") of the Web site that you came from before visiting our site, which pages you visit on our site, which browser you used to view our site and any search terms you have entered on our site. This technical data is aggregated and used to measure and improve the effectiveness of the Privacy Compliance Group Web site. We do not attempt to combine this technical data with the personal information we collect on our site.

Do we use cookies, Web beacons, or third party advertisers?

Cookies
A 'cookie' is a small data file that a Web site may send to your browser and that your browser may then store on your system. Privacy Compliance Group does NOT use cookies. Furthermore, we do NOT allow other companies (third parties) to set cookies via Privacy Compliance Group Web sites.

Web Beacons
The Privacy Compliance Group Web site does NOT use electronic images known as Web beacons, or clear GIFs to monitor the activity of our Web site. Used in combination with cookies, a Web beacon is an often-transparent graphic image, usually no larger than 1 pixel x 1 pixel, which is placed on a Web site or in an e-mail that is used to monitor the behavior of the user visiting the Web site or opening the e-mail. (To learn more about Web beacons, visit Webopedia).

Third Party Advertisers
Privacy Compliance Group does NOT use third party advertising companies to provide advertisements or allow third party advertisers to track your browsing activities on Privacy Compliance Group Web sites.

Does Privacy Compliance Group provide my information to third parties?

From time to time, we may be required to provide personal information in response to a valid court order, subpoena, government investigation, or as otherwise required by law. Unless prevented by law, we will notify you prior to the release of such information. We also reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities that we, in good faith, believe to be unlawful. We may release certain personal information when we believe that such release is reasonably necessary to protect the rights, property, and safety of others and ourselves.

Do I have choices regarding how my information is used?

You remain in control of your information. Privacy Compliance Group will NOT use or share the personal information we collect in ways unrelated to the purpose for which you provided the information without first obtaining your consent (opt-in). At the time you provide your information, you can choose whether you want to receive further communications about special offers, product information or other marketing messages. If you do opt-in to marketing communications from Privacy Compliance Group, you can opt-out at any time. To do so, e-mail the cpo@privacycg.com. All e-mail communications from us, such as newsletters, tell you how to stop receiving them.

Can I access, update or delete my information?

Privacy Compliance Group wants your information and preferences to be accurate and complete. If you would like to access or update the personal information we maintain about you in our systems, please call 1.214.365.1665 or e-mail us at cpo@privacycg.com.

You may use the same contact information above to send us a request that we delete personally identifiable information stored in the databases we actively use for research and daily business activities and other readily searchable media. Unless restricted by law, we will take all reasonable steps to functionally delete such information from our database(s).

We will respond to your request to access, update or delete your information within five business days. Before we are able to provide you with any information, correct any inaccuracies or delete any information, however, we may ask you to verify your identity and to provide other details (in a secure manner) to help us to respond to your request.

Please be careful whenever sending personal information to Privacy Compliance Group via e-mail. E-mail is commonly not a secure means of transferring information.

Whom can I contact if I have questions or concerns?

Please contact our Chief Privacy Officer to report any known or suspected privacy or security breaches or to submit privacy-related questions or complaints. After receiving your inquiry, we will respond within five business days. You may contact us in the following ways:

Will this Privacy Policy Change?

If there are changes or additions to this Privacy Policy, we will post those changes here so that you will always know what information we collect online or offline, how we use it and what choices you have. Regardless of any changes we make to our Privacy Policy, we will only use your personal information in accordance with the version of the Privacy Policy in place at the time you provided your information, unless you later give your express consent for us to do otherwise.

Last revision date: February 26, 2007

The way your personal information is used by Privacy Compliance Group, as well as your rights concerning your personal information, has remained unchanged.
