About Us

 

PRIVACY POLICY

Thinking Outside the Boxe (TOTB) respects your privacy.  This Privacy Policy sets forth how we handle information we obtain from you and learn about you when you visit our website at www.thinkingoutsidetheboxe.com.

 

INFORMATION WE COLLECT & HOW WE USE IT

 

TOTB collects two types of information about you when you visit our website:  personally-identifiable information (including, for example, your name, address, telephone number and e-mail address) and non-personally-identifiable, aggregate information (such as information regarding the pages on our website that you have visited and your IP address).

 

Personally Identifiable Information
 

The only personally identifying information that we collect and store about you is the information you choose to provide to us upon registration for the website, registration for conferences or events and upon ordering merchandise from the TOTB website. 

 

Our registration, application forms and order forms require that you provide personal information (such as your name and physical address) and certain financial information (such as credit or debit card numbers).  This information is used to contact you, to process your registration form and to process your order.  We may also use this information to contact you about the services we offer, as well as to send you various updates.

 

We also will gather your personally identifiable information when you send us and e-mail.  We will use this information to respond to your e-mail.  We may also use the information to send you notifications about our services.

 

Non-Personally Identifiable Information

We collect and use non-personally identifiable information about you in the following ways:

 

TOTB collects information through "referrers," IP addresses and various other external variables.  A "referrer" is information the web browser passes along to the TOTB host web server that references the URL from which you came.  The "IP Address" is a number used by computers on the network to identify your computer so that data can be transmitted to you.  "External variables" include, among other things, the domain from which you access the Internet, the time you accessed our website, the type of web browser and operating system or platform used, the Internet address of the website you left to access the TOTB website, the names of the pages you visit while at our website and the Internet address of the website you then visit.  We collect all of this information to allow us to analyze broad demographic trends, to provide information tailored to your interests and to enhance your experience on the TOTB website.

 

To help us improve our website and to ensure that we make every effort to provide you with information or offers that are of interest to you, we may merge your personally identifiable information with click-stream data and other data we have, including offline data.  We may also develop a non-identifiable profile of you based on the pages within our site that you visit.

 

In addition, we may allow third party ads to appear on portions of our website.  If we do so, our advertisers and our network advertising companies may, through the use of cookies or other technology, collect non-personally identifiable information about you.  Over time, they may be able to develop a profile of you based on your visits not only to our website but to other websites as well.

 

This website may contain links to other websites.  Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other websites.  We encourage our Users to read the privacy statements of each and every website that they visit.  This privacy statement applies solely to information collected when you visit TOTB's website.

 

SECURITY

 

We take precaution to protect your information from inadvertent disclosure and intrusion by third parties, but such precautions are not without risk.  Access to User data is strictly monitored to ensure that data is accessed only by authorized personnel of TOTB who are reasonably required to have access to such priviledged information.  See the TOTB Terms of Use agreement for more information about TOTB's Limitation of Liability.
