Privacy Policy

Corporate Compliance Seminars (CCS) values the privacy of its customers, affiliates, and visitors to its websites and is strongly committed to each visitor's right to privacy. This privacy policy has been developed as a codification of CCS's commitment in this area.

​

The privacy policy explains CCS's information gathering and handling practices. If you have any questions regarding CCS's privacy policy or do not feel that your concerns have been otherwise addressed, please contact the chief privacy officer by sending an email to johnb@cseminars.com.

​

Consent

By using CCS's websites, you signify your acceptance of our privacy policy. If you, as a visitor, register for courses or events, purchase services, or otherwise submit personally identifiable information, you are consenting to CCS's use of such data in accordance with its privacy policy.

​

Scope

It is the intent of CCS to be in compliance with the principles of the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act of Canada, the European Union Safe Harbour Act, the Data Protection Act of the United Kingdom, and selected legislation worldwide regarding privacy of data. If any provision of this policy is in conflict with such legislation, the provisions of this policy shall apply, except when otherwise required by law.

​

This policy guides how CCS stores and uses personal information that is collected by CCS or provided to CCS, whether through our websites or by other methods such as an application, enrollment, registration or order form, or other means. This policy covers all of CCS's websites. However, this policy does not cover affiliate websites whether or not linked to CCS's sites.

​

Collection and Use of Information

Even if you do nothing during your visit other than navigate a CCS website, read pages, or download information, we will automatically gather and store certain information about your visit. In order to ensure our websites are as useful and effective an information source as they can be, we analyze information that identifies visitors by categories such as the location of visitors (by domain, not by personal email address) and browser types. We also measure, in the aggregate, indicators such as number of visits, average time spent on the sites, and pages viewed. CCS uses these statistics to improve site content and usability; this information does not identify visitors personally.

​

However, when a visitor enters an email address obtained by the means described above on an CCS website for the purpose of requesting services, information production or registration for an event CCS will retain that email address in the CCS customer information system.

​

CCS may use personally identifiable information you have voluntarily provided on our websites or by other means to notify you via e-mail or printed material of CCS events or other relevant products and services offered by CCS. If you do not want to receive notice of such events, you may choose to opt out by the means detailed in the "Opting Out" section of this policy.

​

Disclosure of Information to Third Parties

If you voluntarily provide CCS with personally identifiable information, CCS may share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of CCS when we have your consent to do so. CCS requires opt-in consent for the sharing of any sensitive personal information. CCS may release information on a selective basis to outside organizations whose products and services are of perceived benefit. These organizations include, but are not limited to:

​

CCS may provide mailing information to other organizations whose products and services are of perceived benefit. If you do not want CCS to provide your personally identifiable information to third parties or as noted above, please see "Opting Out" section of this policy.

​

Disclosure of Information for Legal Reasons

CCS will share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of CCS if CCS has a good-faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to:

​

Meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request.
Enforce applicable Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations.
Detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues.

​

Protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of CCS, our members or the public as required or permitted by law.

​

There are other instances in which CCS may divulge your personal information. CCS may provide your personal information if necessary, in CCS's good faith judgment, to comply with laws or regulations of a governmental or regulatory body or in response to a valid subpoena, warrant or order, or to protect the rights of CCS or others.

​

Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information to Third Parties

CCS requires opt-in consent for the sharing of any sensitive personal information.  Sensitive personal information is a particular category of personal information relating to confidential medical facts, racial or ethnic origins, political or religious beliefs or sexuality.

​

Right of Access

CCS is dedicated to providing reasonable access to its customers and others who want to review their personal information maintained by CCS and correct any inaccuracies therein.  Customers and others may verify and/or change their data by emailing johnb@cseminars.com. CCS, however, is not responsible for verifying the continued accuracy of either customer or others information.

​

Security

Although CCS does not monitor the websites, CCS has reasonable policies in place to protect from misuse the personally identifiable information provided by its users.

​

Links

CCS's websites contain "links" to other sites. CCS does not control, and is not responsible for, the accuracy, timeliness, security, or even the continued availability or existence of this outside information. Opinions expressed on other sites linked from CCS's websites are not necessarily those of CCS, nor does CCS endorse, warrant, or guarantee products or services described or offered on those other sites. Neither is CCS responsible for the contents of any websites that choose to link to CCS's websites with or without CCS's consent.

​

Other organizations linked to CCS's websites may collect information about you when you view or click on these sites. CCS cannot control this collection of information. You should contact these organizations directly if you have any questions about their use of the information they collect.

 

Changes to Privacy Policy

CCS's Privacy Policy may change from time to time. CCS will not reduce your rights under this Privacy Policy without your explicit consent. CCS will post any privacy policy changes on this page and, if the changes are significant, CCS will provide a more prominent notice (including, for certain services, email notification of privacy policy changes). The users of CCS's websites should reference this policy periodically to ensure that they have knowledge of the current provisions of CCS's privacy policy.
