1. Collection of Information

Certain applications on the Global Marketing and Communications Website may require users to register or to provide personal information in order to make a commerce transaction, or to subscribe to a newsletter. Such personal information is not shared or sold to third parties. To better understand the needs of our Website users, we may also request demographic information.

If we request demographic information, we will not share information about you as an individual with any other entity. If we do share demographic information with third parties, we will give them aggregate information only.

2. Mailing Lists

If you provide your e-mail address, Global Marketing and Communications may periodically contact you regarding upcoming events, updated information, and new services. Any e-mails sent to you by Global Marketing and Communications offer you the option to be removed from the e-mail mailing list.

Selected applications on our web site allow visitors to subscribe to our newsletter by providing their names and addresses to the Global Marketing and Communications. If you provide Global Marketing and Communications with your mailing address or telephone number, Global Marketing and Communications, in addition to providing you with the Global Marketing and Communications newsletter, may also use this information to alert you to updated information and new services.

3. Information to third parties

Global Marketing and Communications does not release any personal information to third parties.

4. Financial information

Global Marketing and Communications utilizes an event management service called EventBrite (http://www.eventbrite.com) for taking registrations to events organized by Global Marketing and Communications.  In the occasion in which a Global Marketing and Communications event registration requires a monetary payment in addition to a registration, EventBrite will require personal financial information to complete the transaction.  EventBrite will use your credit card number only to process your payment and will not use it for marketing purposes. For reasons of security, credit card information is not stored on the Global Marketing and Communications or the EventBrite web server. We will retain order information for our records, but this information is never shared with third parties.

Once you leave our servers (you can check where you are by checking the URL in the location bar on your browser), use of any information you provide is governed by the privacy policy of the operator of the site you are visiting. That policy may differ from ours. If you can’t find the privacy policy of any of these sites via a link from the site’s homepage, you should contact the manager of that site for more information. Global Marketing and Communications is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of Websites other than gmc-ideas.com.
