Limits on Our Abilities
Although your privacy is very important to us, due to the existing legal regulatory and security environment, we cannot fully ensure that your private communications and other personally identifiable information will not be disclosed to third parties. The government or third parties under certain circumstances may intercept or access transmissions or private communications. Additionally, in the unlikely event we need to investigate or resolve possible problems or inquiries, we can (and you authorize us to do so) disclose any information about you to private entities, law enforcement or other government officials as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate.
The privacy of TSE members and their information is extremely important to us and we take this matter very seriously. All users are covered by the following Privacy Policy. TSE reserves the right to update this policy at any time without warning. If required to do so, or it is in our best interest, TSE may release user information in compliance with law enforcement agencies. In order to secure your personal information, all communications between you and TSE website are secured and your personal information cannot be accessed by other users. The Successful Entrepreneur TSE is an online small business assistance center that allows business professionals to connect and interact with one another. Users are represented on the site with personal profiles. You choose the information in your profile and therefore control what can be seen by other users. Information Types There are several primary types of information that are collected including Contact, Profile, and Internet information. Credit card information is also accepted for membership fees and other services. Your Profile After registration, you will be prompted to complete a profile. Members can also make changes to their own user profile. A user profile may contain your name, a personal statement, your work experience, goals, and other items. You should use good judgment about the information that you post in your profile since this can be viewed by others. User Accounts You may make changes to your account and any associated preferences at any time. To make changes, you must log onto the The Successful Entrepreneur and make any edits through the Profile section. You may also request to terminate your account. To request a removal of your account, please contact info@thesuccessfulentrepreneur.net. System Generated Emails As part of the normal functioning of TSE, users may receive email requests from us or for contact from other users. However, TSE will NOT reveal your email address to any other user until you chose to do so. Additionally, TSE will send you system generated emails and promotional materials. Affiliate and Partner Services We will not release your personal information to any party unless required to do so by law or if it is requested by you or part of the normal functioning of TSE. We do intend to use a third party to verify and process credit card information for any fees or purchases made on the TSE. All third parties are required to use your information in a secure manner and only for the purpose given to them and cannot store or release this information. Some non-sensitive profile information may be released to our affiliates and partners for the purpose of marketing and improving our services to you. We hope this policy clarifies our procedures regarding your personal information. |
