Transparency


Collection and Use of Your Information

We will ask you when we need information that personally identifies you (personal information). We may use such personal information to contact you or to provide a service or carry out a transaction that you have requested.

The personal information we collect may include:

  • First and Last Name;
  • Physical Address;
  • Email Address;
  • Phone Number;
  • Fax Number; and
  • Any other personal information you submit during the course of normal correspondence with PreferenceCentral.

Non-Personal Information
We may collect certain non-personal information about your visit. This information is used to help administer and improve the PreferenceCentral website and services.

  • other click stream analytics data.

Cookies
We may place a text file called a 'cookie' in the browser files of your computer. The cookie itself does not contain personal information, although it may relate to personal information you have specifically and knowingly provided. A cookie cannot read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other websites. PreferenceCentral may use cookies to provide services to you as described on the PreferenceCentral website. You can refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser. If you have set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, you will receive the warning message with each cookie. Some PreferenceCentral features and services may not function properly if your cookies are disabled.

How We Share Your Information

Except for the following circumstances, PreferenceCentral does not otherwise share personal information about you with third parties unless doing so is appropriate to carry out a user's request:

Vendors and Service Providers
PreferenceCentral occasionally hires other companies, consultants and contractors to provide limited services on our behalf, such as website hosting, mailing, website analytics, and providing customer service. We will only provide those companies the personal information they need to deliver such service. They are required to maintain the confidentiality of the information and are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose.

As Required By Law
PreferenceCentral may disclose personal information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on PreferenceCentral; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of PreferenceCentral or (c) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of PreferenceCentral employees or agents, users of PreferenceCentral products or services, or members of the public.

Corporate Transaction
PreferenceCentral may, in the future, decide to sell, merge or otherwise reorganize its business. PreferenceCentral reserves the right to transfer and disclose personal information in this circumstance, but data collected by PreferenceCentral will be governed by the same privacy policy that existed prior to any change in business conditions unless you consent to the new privacy policy.
