Privacy Policy
At Global Investment Services, Inc., we strive to develop innovative services to
better serve our users. We recognize that privacy is an important issue, so we
design and operate our services with the protection of your privacy in mind.
This Privacy Policy outlines the types of personal information we gather when
you use the services from Global Investment Services, Inc., as well as some of
the steps we take to safeguard it.
The following principles apply to the personally identifying information we ask
for and that you provide. "Personally identifying information" is information
that individually identifies you, such as your name, physical address or email
address.
Data collection
In general, you can visit our website without telling us who you are and without
revealing any information about yourself. There are times; however, some of our
services require you to register for an account. Glinser asks you for some
personal information in order to create an account (typically your name, email
address and a password for your account) and we will use that information to
provide the service. For certain services, such as our subscription programs,
we may request credit card or other payment information which we maintain in
encrypted form on secure servers.
When we require personally identifying information, we will inform you about the
types of information we collect and how we use it. We hope this will help you
make an informed decision about sharing your personal information with us.
Cookies
Upon your first visit to Glinser.com, a cookie is sent to your computer that
uniquely identifies your browser. A "cookie" is a small file containing a
string of characters that is sent to your computer when you visit a website. We
use cookies to improve the quality of our service. These cookies allow us to
recognize you if you visit multiple pages in our site during the same session,
so that you don't need to re-enter your password multiple times. Once you log
out or close your browser, these session cookies expire and no longer have any
effect. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can reset
your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent.
However, some Glinser features or services may not function properly without
cookies.
Information sharing
We do not sell, rent, or lease your personally identifying information to other
companies or individuals, unless we have your consent. We may share such
information in any of the following limited circumstances:
- We have your consent.
- We provide such information to trusted businesses or persons for the sole purpose of processing personally identifying information on our behalf. When this is done, it is subject to agreements that oblige those parties to process such information only on our instructions and in compliance with this Privacy Policy and appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
- We conclude that we are required by law or have a good faith belief that access, preservation or disclosure of such information is reasonably necessary to protect the rights, property or safety of Glinser, its users or the public.
We may store and process personal information collected on our site in the
United States or any other country in which Global Investment Services, Inc. or
its agents maintain facilities. By using our services, you consent to the
transfer of your information among these facilities, including those located
outside your country.
In the event of a transfer of ownership of Global Investment Services, Inc.,
such as acquisition by or merger with another company, we will provide notice
before any personally identifying information is transferred and becomes
subject to a different privacy policy.
Accessing and Updating Your
Information
We provide mechanisms for updating and correcting your personally identifying
information for many of our services. You can review the personal information
you provided us and make any desired changes to such information for your
Glinser account, at any time by logging in to your account on the Glinser Web
site and changing your preferences in the Account page.
You can also notify us by email to close your account. If you close your Glinser
account, we will mark your account in our database as "Closed," but will keep
your account information in our database. This is necessary in order to deter
fraud, by ensuring that persons who try to commit fraud will not be able to
avoid detection simply by closing their account and opening a new account.
However, if you close your account, your personally identifiable information
will not be used by us for any further purposes, nor sold or shared with third
parties, except as necessary to prevent fraud and assist law enforcement, or as
required by law.
Links
The sites displayed as search results or linked to by Glinser's services are
developed by people over whom Glinser exercises no control. These other sites
may place their own cookies on your computer, collect data or solicit personal
information.
Information Security
Policy
We have implemented one of the highest levels of security for sending personal
information via the Internet. We employ the latest technology by utilizing the
Secured Sockets Layer protocol (SSL 3.0) and Microsoft's Private Communication
Technology protocol (PCT 1.0) with full support for 128-bit encryption methods.
These secured encryption methods are among the highest in the industry for
online commerce and transactions on the Internet. Also, the Internet Web Server
is protected by a firewall which restricts the access to the machine from the
Internet.
Our SSL Technology is certified by VeriSign - the Web's leading "Seal of
Approval" for online authentication services. This provides an internet
security system that conforms to the highest standards available. These
Protocols are used in several areas during the Internet Subscription process:
- At the subscription web page when the subscriber is entering in all of their personal information.
- For all internal validation/verification.
- During ALL communications between our Internet server and our host processing system.
We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to
or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of data. We restrict
access to your personally identifying information to employees who need to know
that information in order to operate, develop or improve our services. We have
made what we believe to be a reasonable effort to guard the security of this
Web site's server. However, the Internet is generally accessible by the public,
and information which is available on the Internet (including the information
supplied by you on this Web site or sent to an email address provided by you)
is potentially accessible by unintended third parties. Your use of this Web
site and your disclosure of personal information at this Web site, on or
through any server, are strictly at your own risk. We do not guarantee the
security of any user provided data.
Changes to this Policy
Please note this Privacy Policy will change from time to time. We expect most
such changes to be minor, but there may be changes that are more significant.
Regardless, we will post those changes on this page and, if the changes are
significant, we will also provide a more prominent notice. Each version will be
noted at the top of the page.
If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact
us any time.
