This web site is administered by Croton Stokes Wilson. We want you to feel secure when visiting our site and we are committed to maintaining your privacy when doing so. The following provides an overview of how we protect your privacy.
Information is gathered in two ways: (1) indirectly, for example, through our site's technology, and (2) directly, for example, when you provide information on various pages of the site. We collect information indirectly about you when you access crotonstokeswilson.com since your Internet address is automatically collected and is placed in our Internet access logs. We collect information directly from you principally through the use of "cookies" or information you voluntarily submit it to us.
Cookies are small files of information which save and retrieve information about your visit to this site - for example, how you entered our site, how you navigated through the site, and what information was of interest to you. The cookies we use identify you merely as a number. If you are uncomfortable regarding cookies use, please keep in mind you can disable cookies on your computer by changing the settings in preferences or options menu in your browser. You submit information voluntarily to us when you register for an event or conference, order a white paper, or participate in an online survey. When we collect this type of information, we will notify you as to why and how this information will be used. It is completely up to you whether or not you want to provide it.
We analyse it to determine what is most effective about our site to help us improve it. If we use data for other purposes we will explain this to you at the point we collect the information.
We will not sell individual information and will share it only with our advisors. There will be other times when we may need to share information. But again, before you submit any information, we will notify you as to why we are asking for specific information and it is completely up to you whether or not you want to provide it.
We do not seek to collect sensitive personal data through this site. We may collect some sensitive personal data incidentally. By providing us with unsolicited sensitive personal data, you consent to our using the data subject to applicable law as described in this notice. The references to "sensitive personal data" are to the various categories of personal data identified by European and other data privacy laws as requiring special treatment, including in some circumstances the need to obtain explicit consent. These categories comprise personal identity numbers, personal data about personality and private life, racial or ethnic origin, colour, nationality, political opinions or convictions, membership of political parties or movements, religious, philosophical or other similar beliefs, trade union membership, physical or mental health or handicap, genetic code, addictions, gender, sexual life (including sexual orientation), pregnancy, property matters or penal or criminal conviction or record (including where a pardon has been granted).
While we take steps to maintain the security of this site, you should understand that the open nature of the Internet is such that data may flow over networks without security measures and may be accessed and used by people other than those for whom the data is intended.
In short, we are committed to maintaining your privacy and creating a valuable resource for you to use. If you have any questions now or during your visit please contact us.
