Privacy
Policy
We
are deeply committed to protecting your privacy and take all reasonable
steps to protect all data and information supplied to Global-Profiles.com.
We protect your privacy in a variety of ways including using industry
accepted security measures to protect against the loss, misuse and
alteration of data used by our system.
The Global-Profiles Privacy Policy is designed to ensure the safety and
accuracy of Internet users' personal information, whether gathered on
this site or by our clients. We are in the permission-based e-mail
business, and understand the importance of personal information
security. We are absolutely committed to personal privacy on the
Internet.
We enable our clients to reach their customers with highly personalized
communications narrowly tailored to their interests. Our technical and
marketing efforts bring us into contact with millions and millions of
consumers. Therefore, privacy is absolutely critical to the way we do
business. To that end, we strive to only work with companies guarding
any personal information they collect from their existing or potential
customers. Global-Profiles is a permission-based marketing company and
seeks to uphold the privacy, security and comfort level of everyone with
whom we come in contact.
Global-Profiles collects data from Internet users including
non-personally identifiable information from its site's visitors, IP
address of their server and what pages they visited. We use this
information to continuously improve our site's functionality.
Global-Profiles also collects personally identifiable information,
including e-mail addresses, from those visitors who opt-in to receive
some information from us, make inquiries or comments. We use this
information to directly respond to visitors' communications. If a
customer joins an online marketing program with any of our clients, they
typically submit some personally identifiable information to participate
in this program. However, the type and amount of information collected
varies, and each of our clients specifies what information is collected.
Global-Profiles utilizes the industry's leading data security solutions
and has implemented policies and procedures to ensure the physical and
electronic security of data stored by Global-Profiles. Global-Profiles
employs permission-based marketing principles: it requires its clients
to communicate only to users who affirmatively express an interest in
receiving e-mails relevant to their interests in a particular company or
product. Permission to receive e-mails may be granted and taken away; in
other words customers may "opt-in" and "opt-out". If
a customer chooses to opt-out, the Global-Profiles client is required to
stop sending messages to that customer. Global-Profiles puts a high
value on a customers' ability to discontinue receiving unwanted e-mail.
Global-Profiles utilizes Cookie technology for purposes of web site
traffic analysis such as the time/date of the visit, the time/date of
last visit, the page viewed, the referrer, transaction information for
eCommerce pages, and other data. Global-Profiles tracks click behavior
in the e-mails it sends out. This data is used to update specific
user-profile information, ascertain the areas of most interest to opt-in
e-mail recipients, and to personalize e-mail messages to them.
Global-Profiles is a general audience site and is not directed to
children under the age of 13. Whether for itself or for its clients,
Global-Profiles will not knowingly collect or maintain personally
identifiable information from or about anyone under 13. Global-Profiles
will make the best effort to assist its clients in complying with
privacy laws and adhering to the highest industry standards on privacy.
If you have received unwanted, unsolicited email sent via our system or
purporting to be sent via this system, please forward a copy of that
email with your comments to abuse@Global-Profiles.com for review. We
reserve the right to modify this policy at any time.
