PRIVACY POLICY -
COMMITMENT TO YOUR PRIVACY
This site is owned
and operated by Opus International Capital Markets Consultants,
LLC. Your privacy on the Internet is of the utmost importance to
us. At Opus International, we want to make your experience
online satisfying and safe.
Because we gather
certain types of information about our users, we feel you should
fully understand our policy and the terms and conditions
surrounding the capture and use of that information. This
privacy statement discloses what information we gather and how
we use it.
INFORMATION OPUS
INTERNATIONAL GATHERS AND TRACKS
Opus International
gathers two types of information about users:
-
Information
that users provide through optional, voluntary submissions.
These are voluntary submissions to receive our electronic
newsletters, to participate in our message boards or forums,
to email a friend, and from participation in polls and
surveys. As an example, visitor's name, phone number and
email address is collected when online Contact form is
submitted.
-
Information
gathered through aggregated tracking of visitors derived
mainly by tallying page views throughout our sites. This
information allows us to better understand the demographics
of our audience and tailor our content to readers' needs.
Because Opus International derives its revenue mainly from
sponsorships and advertising, providing such aggregated
demographic data is essential to keeping our service free to
users. Under no circumstances does Opus International
divulge any information about an individual user to a third
party.
USAGE TRACKING
Opus International
tracks user traffic patterns throughout all of our sites.
However, we do not correlate this information with data about
individual users. Opus International does break down overall
usage statistics according to a user's domain name, browser
type, and MIME type by reading this information from the browser
string (information contained in every user's browser).
Opus International
sometimes tracks and catalogs the search terms that users enter
in our Search function, but this tracking is never associated
with individual users. We use tracking information to determine
which areas of our sites users like and don't like based on
traffic to those areas. We do not track what individual users
read, but rather how well each page performs overall. This helps
us continue to build a better service for you.
COOKIES
We may place a text
file called a "cookie" in the browser files of your computer.
The cookie itself does not contain Personal Information although
it will enable us to relate your use of this site to information
that you have specifically and knowingly provided. But the only
personal information a cookie can contain is information you
supply yourself. A cookie can't read data off your hard disk or
read cookie files created by other sites. Opus International may
use cookies to track user traffic patterns (as described above).
You can refuse
cookies by turning them off in your browser. If you've set your
browser to warn you before accepting cookies, you will receive
the warning message with each cookie. You do not need to have
cookies turned on to use this site.
USE OF INFORMATION
Opus International
uses any information voluntarily given by our users to enhance
their experience in our network of sites, whether to provide
interactive or personalized elements on the sites or to better
prepare future content based on the interests of our users.
Opus International
never shares this information and any mailing lists with any
third parties, including advertisers, sponsors or partners.
When we use
tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users
like and don't like based on traffic to those areas, we do not
track what individual users read, but rather how well each page
performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better
service for you. We track search terms entered in Search
function as one of many measures of what interests our users.
But we don't track which terms a particular user enters.
Opus International
creates aggregate reports on user demographics and traffic
pattern. We will not disclose any information about any
individual user except to comply with applicable law or valid
legal process or to protect the personal safety of our users or
the public.
SHARING OF THE
INFORMATION
Opus International
uses the above-described information to tailor our content to
suit your needs and help our advertisers better understand our
audience's demographics. This is essential to keeping our
service free. We will not share information about individual
users with any third party, except to comply with applicable law
or valid legal process or to protect the personal safety of our
users or the public.
SECURITY
Opus International
operates secure data networks protected by industry standard
firewall and password protection systems. Our security and
privacy policies are periodically reviewed and enhanced as
necessary and only authorized individuals have access to the
information provided by our website visitors.
YOUR CONSENT
By using this site,
you consent to the collection and use of this information by
Opus International. If we decide to change our privacy policy,
we will post those changes on this page so that you are always
aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under
what circumstances we disclose it.
