Privacy Policy
This website is administered by Tioga Venture Europe.
The primary purpose of www.tiogaventure.com is to be
a dynamic resource and business tool to help you create
your future. We want you to feel secure when visiting
our site and are committed to maintaining your privacy
when doing so.
The following provides an overview of how we protect
your privacy during your visit.
Information Gathered
Information on www.tiogaventure.com 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 www.tiogaventure.com).
One example of information we collect indirectly is
through our Internet access logs. When you access www.tiogaventure.com,
your Internet address is automatically collected and
is placed in our Internet access logs.
We collect information directly from you in a number
of ways, some of which we describe in this Privacy Statement.
One way is through the use of cookies. Cookies are small
files of information which save and retrieve information
about your visit to www.tiogaventure.com, 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.)
We also collect information when you voluntarily submit
it to us. Throughout our site, we might provide the
opportunity to 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 we are asking for information and how
this information will be used. It is completely up to
you whether or not you want to provide it.
Use of Information Gathered
We analyze it to determine what is most effective about
our site, to help us identify ways to improve it, and
eventually, to determine how we can tailor www.tiogaventure.com
to make it more effective. We may also use data for
other purposes, which we would describe to you at the
point we collect the information.
Information Sharing with Outside Parties
Data we collect may be transferred internationally
throughout Tioga Venture's organization. We will not
sell individual information and will share it only with
our advisors. There will be other times when we need
to share information, for example, in the case of an
event where we need to provide our caterer with meal
preference 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.
Sensitive Personal Data
We do not generally seek to collect sensitive personal
data through this site. If we do seek to collect such
data, we will ask you to consent to our proposed uses
of the data. We may also 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
Privacy Statement. 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,
nationality, political opinions, membership of political
parties or movements, religious, philosophical or other
similar beliefs, membership of a trade union or profession
or trade association, physical or mental health, genetic
code, addictions, sexual life, property matters or criminal
record (including information about suspected criminal
activities).
Access to Your Information
You are entitled to know whether we hold information
about you and, if we do, to have access to that information
and require it to be corrected if it is inaccurate.
You can do this by sending us an e-mail.
Data Security
We take appropriate steps to maintain the security
of your data on www.tiogaventure.com. 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.
That's it in a nutshell. The short of it is we are
interested in 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.
