Integra
International® is committed to protecting the privacy of our
members’ and customers’ personal information. This Policy
explains how we gather and use the information that we collect from
the INTEGRA-INTERNATIONAL.NET Web site, located at http://www.integra-international.net.
This policy may change over time. Amendments to this statement will
be posted at this URL and will be effective when posted. Your continued
use of this site following the posting of any amendment, modification,
or change shall constitute your acceptance thereof.
Collection & Use of Information
When users register on the Integra-International.net site, the site
collects several types of information. First, the site collects
contact information such as name, e-mail address, mailing address,
telephone, and fax numbers. Second, the site collects information
about the type of work you do (i.e. audit, accounting, consulting,
tax etc.).
How this information is used is summarized below:
* Site navigation:
In order to guide site users to relevant content on the site, the
personal information from site registration is used to build a Personal
Home Page. For example, a market researcher’s Personal Home
Page includes links to market research Best Practice papers, articles,
and other such resources on the site.
* User Convenience:
The Integra-International.net Web site includes links to selected
affiliate partners. In some circumstances, we will pass over information
to pre-register users on the affiliate’s site. This is done
to reduce the number of clicks for users, or to qualify users for
various promotional benefits.
* Access Privileges:
Information collected during registration is used to verify that
users have the rights to access INTEGRA-INTERNATIONAL.NET member
only content, and that users qualify for various INTEGRA-INTERNATIONAL.NET
member discounts and promotions.
* Communications:
INTEGRA-INTERNATIONAL.NET runs educational programs and events that
may be of use to individual marketers to develop new skills or advance
their careers. Information from registration is used to determine
whom to contact, typically via e-mail, with an invitation to participate.
Users can opt-out of such communications at any time at http://www.Integra-International.net
* Site Monitoring & Maintenance:
Information from user registration is used to measure the user traffic
of various sections of the site. This information is used on an
aggregate level only, and the site does not record the specific
content viewed by an individual user.
We may also employ other companies and individuals to perform functions
on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders, delivering packages,
sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information
from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance
(including direct and targeted marketing), processing credit card
payments, and providing customer service. They have access to personal
information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it
for other purposes.
In certain circumstances, we may share your customer information
with trusted service providers that need access to your information
to provide operational or other support services. We also may provide
information to regulatory authorities and law enforcement officials
in accordance with applicable law or when we otherwise believe in
good faith that the law requires it.
Your personal information collected during site registration or
when you sign up for an INTEGRA-INTERNATIONAL.NET membership will
not be sold to third parties for e-mail marketing or telemarketing
campaigns.
Use of IP Address
We may use your IP Address to help diagnose problems with our server,
and to administer our Web site.
* Affiliate Sites:
Affiliate sites (designated by the “powered by” logo)
are responsible for their own policies and procedures during e-commerce
transactions. Review the vendor's policy regarding e-commerce transactions
on affiliate sites. The INTEGRA-INTERNATIONAL.NET is not responsible
for products and services transactions that are consummated at third
party Web sites.
* Advertisers:
Advertisers which could include traditional banner-style ads, listings
in directories or advertisements in the newsletter, are responsible
for their own policies and procedures during e-commerce transactions.
We recommend that you review the vendor's policy regarding e-commerce
transactions on advertiser sites. The INTEGRA-INTERNATIONAL.NET
is not responsible for products and services transactions that are
consummated at advertiser Web sites.
Use of Cookies
When you view our Web site we might store some information on your
computer. This information will be in the form of a "cookie"
or similar file. Cookies are small pieces of information stored
on your hard drive, not on our site. Cookies do not spy on you or
otherwise invade your privacy, and they cannot invade your hard
drive and steal information. Rather, they help you navigate a Web
site as easily as possible.
We use cookies to display registered user names on their Personal
Home Page, to confirm users access rights to certain “access
restricted” areas of the site, and their content preferences.
We also use cookies to track visitor traffic by visitor type (aggregated,
not individual) for the purpose of understanding what content users
find most valuable.
Because of our use of cookies, we can deliver faster service, consistent,
updated results and a more personalized site experience. You have
the option of setting your browser to reject cookies. However, doing
this will hinder performance and negatively impact your experience
on our site.
Member Listing / Resumes
INTEGRA-INTERNATIONAL.NET operates an intrAnet that enables you
to store your member listing in our database. When you create a
member listing, you have the option of making the member listing
searchable or non-searchable. Not allowing your resume to be searchable
means that your listing will be on line but readers will not have
access to search it through our database product. If you choose
to make your listing searchable, then all readers who have access
to our database product will have access to your listing.
We use our best efforts to grant access to the database only to
business professionals, but cannot guarantee that other parties
will not, without our consent, gain access to this database. You
may remove your listing from our searchable database at any time.
However, business who have paid for access to the database, and
other parties who have otherwise gained access to the database,
may have retained a copy of your listing in their own files or databases.
We are not responsible for the retention, use, or privacy of listings
in these instances, or for the use or privacy of listings by any
of such parties while listings are in the database.
Public Forum
This Web site may make public chat rooms, forums, message boards,
and/or news groups available to you from time to time. Please remember
that any information that is disclosed in these areas becomes public
information and you should exercise caution when deciding to disclose
any personal information.
Children
We do not specifically collect online contact information from children
nor do we target or sell products for purchase by children.
Security
This Web site has industry standard security measures in place to
protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under
our control. While there is no such thing as "perfect security"
on the Internet, we will take reasonable steps to insure the safety
of your personal information.
