We at Executive Technologies ("we") have created this privacy policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to protecting your personal information. This privacy policy only applies to transactions and activities in which you engage and data gathered on the etfortwayne.com Website, but does not apply to any other Website or offline point of contact between etfortwayne.com or any other company, and consumers. Please review this privacy policy periodically as we may modify it from time to time. This privacy policy was last revised on October 22, 2009. Each time you visit the Site or provide us with information, by doing so you are accepting the practices described in this privacy policy at that time.

Information We Collect From You

In order to operate the Site and to provide you with information about products or services that may be of interest to you, we may collect "personal information," (information that could be used to contact you directly, such as full name, postal address, phone number or email address) or "demographic information" (information that you submit or we collect, that is neither personal information nor financial information; this may include, but is not limited to, zip code, company name and postal code), subject to the rest of this paragraph. Please note that nowhere on the Site do we knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 18, as we require that all users represent to us that they are at least 18 years old.

Information Other Websites Collect From You

On the Site, we may place links to other Websites operated by other parties. When you click on these links and visit these other Websites, you need to be aware that we do not control these other Websites or these other Websites’ business practices, and that this privacy policy does not apply to these other Websites. Consequently, the operators of these other Websites may collect different kinds of information about you, and may use and disclose that information in different ways than we do. We encourage you to review their privacy policies and remind you that we cannot be responsible for their actions.

How We Use Personal Information

We use your email address and your other personal information to help us efficiently operate the Site, to contact you in connection with your activities on the Site (including, but not limited to, confirmation emails or important news that could affect your relationship with Executive Technologies). These types of communications are known as "Operational Communications."

We also use personal information to send you newsletters, offers and other promotional materials for Executive Technologies’ goods or services. We attempt to send you offers that are of value to you, such as discounts, exclusive offers or special event information. The Site provides you with options to decline to receive communications from us (other than those contained in Operational Communications). Some of these options may only be for a certain category of communications; others may be more general.

To operate the Site, we may share your personal information with our agents, representatives, contractors and service providers so they can provide us with support services. We require these entities not to use your information for any other purpose.

Service Providers

 When you choose to purchase training with a credit card, we will share your credit card number, Full Name and Address as necessary to process your transaction. These third parties are prohibited from using your personally identifiable information for any other purpose.

By purchasing, or registering or making reservations for, products or services offered or sponsored by third parties on the Site, or electing to receive communications (such as emails or newsletter subscriptions) or electing to participate in contests, sweepstakes or other programs (such as discount or rewards programs), offered or sponsored by third parties on the Site, you consent to our providing your personal information to those third parties. Those third parties may use your personal information in accordance with their own privacy policies. You will need to contact those third parties to instruct them directly regarding your preferences for the use of your personal information by them. Additionally, you agree that we may use and disclose all such information so submitted to such third parties in the same manner in which we are entitled to use and disclose any other information you submit to us.

Special Cases in which we Share Personal and Financial Information

Your personal information or financial information may be passed on to a third party in the event of a transfer of ownership or assets, or a bankruptcy. Although we are currently an independently owned and operated franchise, should we become affiliated with other businesses in the future, we may disclose your personal information or financial information to such affiliated legal entities, businesses or companies with whom we come to be under common corporate control. We may also disclose personal information or financial information when we determine that such disclosure is necessary to comply with applicable law, to cooperate with law enforcement or to protect the interests or safety of etfortwayne.com or visitors to the Site. Whenever personal information or financial information is disclosed under this paragraph, we may also disclose your demographic information along with it, on a non-anonymous basis. Any parent, subsidiary or affiliated legal entities and businesses that receive your personal information, financial information, or non-anonymous demographic information from us will comply with the terms of this privacy policy with respect to their use and disclosure of such information.

How We Use Public Information and Other Demographic Information

We may review all demographic information. We may use demographic information to tailor the Site and communications to your interests. Please be aware that we may disclose your demographic information on a non-anonymous basis as described above in the paragraph titled "Special Cases in which we Share Personal and Financial Information."

Our Security Precautions

The Site has security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. We DO NOT store credit card numbers on ANY of our servers in any form. Your information may be transferred to and maintained on computer networks which may be located outside of the state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction in which you reside, and the country or jurisdiction in which these computer networks are located may not have privacy laws as protective as the laws in your country or jurisdiction.

Changing our Privacy Policy for Previously Gathered Information

If at any point we decide to use particular personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users by way of an email or by providing 30 days notice on the Site. Please note that we will continue to have the right to change our privacy policy and practices, and how we use your personally identifiable information, without notice, as described in the first paragraph of this Privacy Policy, provided that such changes shall only apply to information gathered on or after the date of the change.

How You Can Access and Update Your Email Preferences, Personal Information and Public Information

We give you the opportunity to opt-out of certain communications and modify personal information or demographic information you have provided to us, and to hide demographic information from, or make demographic information visible to, the public users of the Site, at anytime. Please be aware that it may take several hours for the changes you make to take effect. We thank you for your patience.

Please note that changing or deleting your information or otherwise opting-out of receipt of email communications from etfortwayne.com, will only change or delete the data in our database for purposes of future activities on the Site and for managing future communications from etfortwayne.com. These changes and deletions will not change or delete emails or information that we may have already forwarded to other users or credit card companies or any other third parties, all as provided above in this privacy policy.
