Privacy Statement
EntreLaunch protects the privacy and the confidentiality of personal information—over the Internet, on the telephone, or through our offices. Our Privacy Policy and related procedures guide the handling of the personal information collected. This policy deals only with personal information handled by the EntreLaunch. Our Privacy Policy is available online at www.entrelaunch.org.
Purposes for Collection, Use and Disclosure of Personal Information
The purpose for which we collect personal information will be identified at or before the time the information is collected. Personal information may be collected for such purposes as:
- Purchase of products or services
- Membership Program (your information will never be sold to a third-party)
- Inquiries regarding products or services
- Our newsletter (with your expressed consent to receive same)
- Site analytics (tracking number of visitors to the site and website use)
We will not use personal information for any other purpose than identified at or before the time of collection.
EntreLaunch seeks consent for all personal information it collects, uses and discloses through information provided to individuals prior to collection, or at the time of collection. For information which is considered to be more sensitive, for example credit card numbers, EntreLaunch will ask for a signature or a completed credit card consent form as a sign of consent.
If information is voluntarily provided, this is interpreted as consent to the collection. EntreLaunch will not use personal information for any purpose other than that for which consent has been provided. Should EntreLaunch require use of personal information for a new purpose, consent will be sought for that new use.
Limits for Collecting, Using, Disclosing and Keeping Personal Information
EntreLaunch does not collect, use or disclose personal information of individuals except when individuals give consent and provide the information on a voluntary basis. EntreLaunch collects only information that is voluntarily provided by the individual and undertakes that such information will be kept strictly confidential.
EntreLaunch may disclose personal information collected by it without the knowledge or consent of the individual, for example to its lawyers; for purposes relating to an investigation under, the enforcement of or the administration of a law or where required by law to disclose the information. EntreLaunch will not use or disclose personal information without the knowledge or consent of the individual except as authorized by applicable law.
EntreLaunch retains personal information only as long as is necessary to provide the individual with the requested product, service or information. For example, if personal information is given for future orders, the personal information will only be used for future orders (as indicated by you) and will then be deleted or destroyed. In some cases, however, legal reporting or retention requirements necessitate that EntreLaunch retains information for a specific amount of time. In general, EntreLaunch retains personal information for a period not longer than seven years, in secure storage.
EntreLaunch does not sell or trade any personal information with third parties. Any personal information that EntreLaunch retains is kept in such a manner as to ensure its security and confidentiality at all times.
Safeguarding Personal Information
EntreLaunch respects the privacy of its members, partners, potential Web site visitors and internet users and will protect that privacy as vigorously as possible. Personal information is stored in electronic and physical files that are secure. Security measures include secure locks on filing cabinets, and using industry standard techniques such as firewalls, encryption, intrusion detection and restricted access to computers. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while EntreLaunch strives to protect personal information, it cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information transmitted to it or received from it electronically.
Accuracy of and Access to Personal Information Collected
EntreLaunch makes every effort to keep personal information as accurate, complete, current and relevant as necessary for the identified purposes.
At the written request of an individual, he or she may view or edit their personal information as collected by EntreLaunch. EntreLaunch will inform them of what personal information it has about the individual, what it is being used for and, in cases where it has been disclosed, to whom it has been disclosed. Please include your name and contact information. If an inquiry concerns a specific transaction, please indicate the date of the transaction, and provide a receipt number if applicable.
EntreLaunch will reply to requests in no later than thirty days after receipt of the request, or if it is not able to respond within this time period, a notice of extension will be sent.
