PRIVACY POLICY

Introduction

Core is dedicated to providing you with exceptional products and services. In order to achieve this goal, it is essential that we gather and maintain certain company, or organization and personal information. Given that we understand and value your concerns about sharing this information, Core respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it and has prepared this policy to inform you about our ongoing commitment to ensure that your information remains accurate and confidential.

We may from time to time review and revise our privacy practices and this Privacy Policy. Policy changes will apply to the information collected from the date of the revised Privacy Policy as well as to existing information held by us at the time of the amendment.

What is Personal Information?

We obtain personal information in a variety of ways, including when you request information about Core products and services. We consider “personal information” to mean any information that is voluntarily provided by the customer including your name, title, company or organization name, email, phone, work address and information about your company or organization. Ultimately, the information you provide to Core is at your discretion and under your control. Any personal information that you provide, we may collect.

Why Do We Collect Personal Information?

We use your information to provide you with the services listed above, to communicate with you, occasionally to update you on new projects and services, and to help us better understand your needs and interests.

We also collect information about your visit to our website, including where your visit was referred from, the pages you access, the links you click and other actions taken in order to track and analyze the regular use of our site and improve its contents.

Consent

By providing personal information to us, you agree and consent that we may collect, use and disclose your personal information in accordance with this policy. In addition, where appropriate, specific authorizations or consents may be obtained from time to time.

In most cases and subject to legal and contractual restrictions, you are free to refuse or withdraw your consent at any time.

When We May Disclose Your Personal Information

We will not sell, rent or lease your information to third parties for their independent use under any circumstances. However, disclosure may take place in some situations, including sharing information with third parties that are contractually bound to us with the understanding not to disclose shared information for their personal use.

We may provide access to our database in order to cooperate with official investigations or legal proceedings, including, for example, in response to subpoenas, search warrants, court orders, or other legal process.

While your personally identifying information is protected as outlined above, we reserve the right to use, transfer, sell, and share aggregated, anonymous data about our users as a group for any business purpose, such as analyzing usage trends and seeking compatible advertisers and partners.

In addition, as our business changes, we may buy or sell various assets. In the event all or a portion of the assets owned or controlled by us, or any subsidiary or affiliated entity of us are sold, assigned, transferred or acquired by another company, the information from and/or about our clients may be among the transferred assets.

We may disclose your personal information to an individual or organization in the following circumstances:

• to third parties who are our advisors or service providers;
• banking partners and/or financial institutions to facilitate the transaction;
• to third parties who are, or may be involved in maintaining, reviewing and developing our business systems, procedures and infrastructure, including testing or updating our systems and/or website;
• where we believe, upon reasonable grounds, that it is necessary to protect the rights, privacy, safety or property of an identifiable person or group;
• where it is necessary to establish or collect monies owing to Core;
• where it is necessary to pursue available remedies or limit any damages that we may sustain; and
• to third parties when required by applicable law.

Where we disclose personal information to third parties that perform services on our behalf, we will require those third parties to use such information solely for the purposes of providing services to us and to have appropriate safeguards for the protection of that personal information.

The Accuracy and Retention of Personal Information

We endeavour to ensure that any personal information provided and in our possession is as accurate, current and complete as necessary for the purposes for which we use that information. We keep your personal information only as long as it is required for the reasons it was collected. The length of time we retain information varies, depending on its use and the nature of the information. This period may extend beyond the end of your relationship with us but it will be only for so long as is necessary.

Protection of Personal Information

We endeavour to maintain appropriate physical, procedural and technical security with respect to the storage of personal information so as to prevent any loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, or modification. We have established all suitable procedures including the use of SSL (encryption) on our websites to protect the security of transmitted data from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. At any time and for any reason, should you require access to view or make changes to your personal information, we should be contacted by email or in writing immediately.
