We believe that protecting the privacy and security of anyone's personal
information is essential and fundamental to our values. Our website privacy
policy is part of this commitment. It extends to all registered users as
well who agree to follow its guidelines as outlined below.
Website Privacy
Our website does not collect information that personally identifies
individuals except when that information is provided on a voluntary basis.
If we need to collect any information from our partners, we share why we are
asking for that information and we make sure that information provided to
PELSA will not be, in any form, sold or made available to a third party for
commercial or advertising purposes. Although, we may work with website
content management services and data storage providers, these third parties
are not authorized to make use of any information you provide through our
website.
Cookies
PELSA's website may employ "cookies" in some occasions. These are small
files stored in your computer that identify users entering a website. If
used, these cookies allow us to remember your preferences and to direct you
to your preferred subsection and enable statistical analyses of how our
website is used. This allows us to measure interest in various sections of
our website in order to improve design and content to serve partners better.
You have the option to disable your browser's cookie storing options in its
settings.
Email
Website visitors should be aware that e-mail is not a secure or private
method of transmitting information. Please do not send confidential
information to us via the mass e-mail tools provided.
Third Parties Connections
Our website contains links to third-party websites. The practices of these
sites are outside the control of PELSA. We provide links to those third
parties' websites as information sources in our effort to serve our
customers better and provide them with more information. Users should verify
the privacy policies of these sites before submitting information to them.
Collecting Information
When you visit PELSA's website, we may also collect information that does
not personally identify you, such as your internet protocol (IP) address or
local host and other related information which may be stored in our server
or web hosts for technical purposes. In the event that you e-mail us,
download or upload any materials to us or contact us in any way, we receive
and may store your personal information. Other circumstances which may bring
your information to us are through advertisers, business partners or third
party affiliates. All these depend on the page you are on or the activity
you are visiting or participating in.
Using Your Information
We use all information with accordance with legal and statutory
requirements. Aggregate information is used for statistics and determining
which page is most widely visited. This information helps us in finding out
how to make our website better. Aggregate information is not shared with
anyone else and it is not used to contact you directly.
Accuracy of the Information
The accuracy of the information we have depends on the information that we
receive and is offered by you at the time you visited our web site, signed
up for our services or contacted us in any other way. Accuracy is maintained
by providing you our contact information so as you can update us for any
changes or corrections in your personal information for us to serve you
better. We aim to maintain accuracy of your personal information to the
extent that you provide us with such information.
Sharing Information
We may use tools that serve as communication bridge between several
communities. Visitors who wish to use these tools should be aware that
disclosing personally identifiable information online makes the information
public information. Such disclosure may increase a user's chance of
receiving "spam" or unsolicited email from unscrupulous users. We strongly
recommend that users take extra care to use discretion when disclosing
information online in chat rooms or forums. In the future, PELSA will be
adding new components to the site in order to further safeguard visitors'
information.
How to Contact Us
We use e-mail links and our server side programs, generally located on the
Contacts page, in order to allow you to contact us directly with any
questions or comments. We read every message sent in and try to reply
promptly to everyone. We then file your comments to improve on our site,
features, and programs.
Policies Concerning Software Downloads
PELSA may make certain software applications or other type of data available
for download. This software may be created by PELSA members or by third
party licensors. The software may be programmed to access our servers and/or
third party servers in order for the software to operate and in order to
check for program upgrades or enhancements. From time to time, new files may
be added to your computer in order to upgrade the software (if you have
downloaded it) or add new functionality to it. These changes may occur
without notice to you. If at any time you wish to uninstall the software
program, you may do so by following the instructions that accompany the
