Personal and Non-Personal Information

When using the Website, you may be asked to provide, or you may choose to upload, certain personally identifiable information about yourself (“Personal Information”). Personal Information can include your name, email address and other information that specifically identifies you.

In addition, we may also collect non-personally identifiable information, such as your computer’s IP host address, pages viewed, browsing habits on the Website and other data which does not specifically identify you (“Non-Personal Information”).

Information Usage

Unless disclosed otherwise at the time of collection or in this privacy policy, we do not share any Personal Information you submit through the Website with any third party, unless it is necessary to respond to your questions, provide the specific service you have requested, you have specifically opted-in to such sharing or to comply with applicable law. We may provide your Personal Information to our contractors who are performing services on our behalf, but solely in connection with their performance of services for Brodeur Partners. We will never sell your Personal Information to any third party not affiliated with Brodeur Partners without your consent except in connection with the sale or merger, in whole or in part, of Brodeur Partners, its assets or the division responsible for such services.

We may use your Personal Information from time to time to send you newsletters and other information about the Website and Brodeur Partners, but we will not give your Personal Information to third parties to promote their products or services directly to you.

We may use Non-Personal Information to improve and enhance your experience on the Website and for our research activities. For example, we may share Non-Personal Information with unaffiliated third parties, such as business partners, in an aggregate, anonymous form, which means that the shared information will not contain nor be linked to any Personal Information.

You should be aware that Personal Information which you voluntarily include and transmit online in a posting on the Website, such as a blog, may be viewed and used by others. As a result, we are unable to control uses of your Personal Information by other parties, and by using the Website you assume the risk that the Personal Information provided by you may be viewed and used by third parties.

Please note that we reserve the right to access and/or disclose Personal Information and non-Personal Information we gather as required by courts or administrative agencies and to the extent required to permit us to investigate suspected fraud, harassment or other violations of any law, rule or regulation, the Website’s Terms and Conditions, or the rights of third parties or to investigate any suspected conduct which we deem improper.]

Security Practices

The security of your Personal Information is very important to us. We have put in place reasonable physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard the information we collect. However, due to the inherent open nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee that communications between you and us or information stored on the Website or our servers, will be completely free from unauthorized access by third parties such as hackers and your use of the Website demonstrates your assumption of this risk.

Any communication or material you transmit to us by email or otherwise, including any data, questions, comments, suggestions, or the like is, and will be treated as, non-confidential and nonproprietary. Except to the extent expressly covered by this policy, anything you transmit or post may be used by us for any purpose, including but not limited to, reproduction, disclosure, transmission, publication, broadcast and posting. Furthermore, you expressly agree that we are free to use any ideas, concepts, know-how, or techniques contained in any communication you send to us without compensation and for any purpose whatsoever, including but not limited to, developing, manufacturing and marketing products and services using such information.

No Children under age 13

We have no intention of collecting Personal Information from children under the age of 13. When we become aware that Personal Information from a child under 13 has been collected without such child’s parent or guardian’s consent, we will use all reasonable efforts to delete such information from our database.

We reserve the right, at our discretion, to change, modify, add, or remove portions from this policy at any time. However, if at any time in the future we plan to use Personal Information in a way that differs from this policy, we will post such changes here and provide you the opportunity to opt-out of such differing uses. Your continued use of the Website following the posting of any changes to this policy means you accept such changes.
