Introduction
We at Group Business Software. (GBS) are committed
to respecting your online privacy and recognize your need for
appropriate protection and management of any personally identifiable
information ("Personal Information") you share with us.
GBS has established this Online Privacy Policy so that
you can understand the care with which we intend to treat your
Personal Information.
Personal Information means any information that may be used
to identify an individual, including, but not limited to, a first
and last name, a home or other physical address and an email
address or other contact information, whether at work or at home.
In general, you can visit GBS's Web pages without telling
us who you are or revealing any Personal Information about yourself.
If you choose to provide us with your Personal Information on
the Web, we may transfer that Information within GBS
or to GBS's third-party service providers, across borders,
and from your country or jurisdiction to other countries or jurisdictions
around the world.
GBS strives to comply with all applicable laws around
the globe that are designed to protect your privacy. Although
legal requirements may vary from country to country, GBS
intends to adhere to the principles set forth in this Online
Privacy Policy even if, in connection with the above, we transfer
your Personal Information from your country to countries that
may not require an "adequate" level of protection for your Personal
Information. In other words, our goal is to provide protection
for your Personal Information no matter where that Personal Information
is collected, transferred, or retained.
Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies
Some of our Web pages utilize "cookies" and other tracking technologies.
A "cookie" is a small text file that may be used, for example,
to collect information about Web site activity. Some cookies
and other technologies may serve to recall Personal Information
previously indicated by a Web user. Most browsers allow you to
control cookies, including whether or not to accept them and
how to remove them.
You may set most browsers to notify you if you receive a cookie,
or you may choose to block cookies with your browser, but please
note that if you choose to erase or block your cookies, you will
need to re-enter your original user ID and password to gain access
to certain parts of the Web site.
Tracking technologies may record information such as Internet
domain and host names; Internet protocol (IP) addresses; browser
software and operating system types; clickstream patterns; and
dates and times that our site is accessed. Our use of cookies
and other tracking technologies allows us to improve our Web
site and your Web experience. We may also analyze information
that does not contain Personal Information for trends and statistics.
To protect your privacy, we have adopted the following principles:
- Notice
- Choice
- Security
- Access/Accuracy
Notice
Where GBS collects Personal Information on the web,
we intend to post a purpose statement that explains why Personal
Information will be collected and whether we plan to share such
Personal Information outside of GBS or those working
on GBS's behalf. GBS does not intend to transfer
Personal Information without your consent to third parties who
are not bound to act on GBS's behalf unless such transfer
is legally required.
Choice
You may choose whether or not to provide Personal Information
to GBS. The notice we intend to provide where GBS
collects Personal Information on the Web should help you to make
this choice. If you choose not to provide the Personal Information
we request, you can still visit most of GBS's Web sites,
but you may be unable to access certain options, offers, and
services that involve our interaction with you.
If you chose to have a relationship with GBS, such as
a contractual or other business relationship or partnership,
we will naturally continue to contact you in connection with
that business relationship.
Security
Wherever your Personal Information may be held within GBS
or on its behalf, we intend to take reasonable and appropriate
steps to protect the Personal Information that you share with
us from unauthorized access or disclosure.
Access/Accuracy
To the extent that you do provide us with Personal Information,
GBS wishes to maintain accurate Personal Information.
Where we collect Personal Information from you on the Web, our
goal is to provide a means of contacting GBS should you
need to update or correct that Information. If for any reason
those means are unavailable or inaccessible, you may send updates
and corrections about your Personal Information to privacy@gbs.com and
we will make reasonable efforts to incorporate the changes in
your Personal Information that we hold as soon as practicable.
Third Party Services
Third parties provide certain services available on GBS.com
on GBS's behalf. GBS may provide information,
including Personal Information, which GBS collects on
the Web to third-party service providers to help us deliver programs,
products, information, and services. Service providers are also
an important means by which GBS maintains its Web site
and mailing lists. GBS will take reasonable steps to
ensure that these third-party service providers are obligated
to protect Personal Information on GBS's behalf.
GBS does not intend to transfer Personal Information
without your consent to third parties who are not bound to act
on GBS's behalf unless such transfer is legally required.
Similarly, it is against GBS's policy to sell Personal
Information collected online without consent.
Children's Privacy
GBS.com is not structured to attract children. Accordingly,
we do not intend to collect Personal Information from anyone
we know to be under 13 years of age.
Commitment
We are committed to privacy and, through our membership in the
Online Privacy Alliance, are actively involved in and support
current industry initiatives to preserve individual privacy rights
on the Internet. Protecting your privacy online is an evolving
area, and GBS's Web sites are constantly evolving to
meet these demands.
If you have any comments or questions regarding our Online Privacy
Policy, please contact us at privacy@gbs.com . While
we cannot guarantee privacy perfection, we will address any issue
to the best of our abilities as soon as possible.

Privacy Policy and to GBS's processing of Personal Information

the Online Privacy Policy change, we intend to take every reasonable

by posting all changes prominently on our web site for a reasonable
period of time. |
