Privacy Policy

PALCUS respects the privacy of its customers, and other individuals and businesses using any website owned and operated by PALCUS.

Information We Collect

There are three types of information that may be exchanged between PALCUS and any user during a visit to this website. They are:

1. General technical data transmitted between your computer and PALCUS that does not identify you personally. This information is typically your ISP's domain, the search engine you may have used to locate our website, the time you accessed our website, and the pages from within our website that you visit.
2. Personally identifiable information that you voluntarily share. When you purchase products or register for one of our seminars or workshops, you provide us with contact and payment information. Contact information includes your name, address, email address and phone number. Payment information typically includes your credit card number. 
3. We may store customers' electronic mail and other communications as a necessary incident to the transmission and delivery of communications.

Anonymous Information 

The anonymous information collected is not associated with you personally, or with your business. PALCUS uses this anonymous information in the aggregate to improve our website and the services we provide as a company.

Use of Cookies 

We may at times also use cookies, which are small pieces of information that a website can store in a designated file on your computer. Cookies allow a web application to respond to you as an individual. By gathering and remembering information about your preferences, the web application can tailor its operation to your needs, likes, and dislikes. PALCUS also uses information obtained from cookies to improve our website, and make decisions concerning advertising, product offerings and services. If they prefer, most users have the ability to disable cookies from their Internet browsers, or to receive notification that a cookie is being placed within their computer.

Advertisements 

At times, we may permit advertising companies to deliver ads on our website. When you click on these ads, the advertising company may receive anonymous, aggregate information about the volume of ad viewing, but this information is not associated with you personally. PALCUS does not provide personally identifiable information about its customers or visitors to these advertising companies.

Disclosure to Third Parties 

PALCUS reserves the right to disclose any personally identifiable information without your consent, except under the following circumstances:

1. When required by law, 
2. When disclosure is necessary to protect the safety of a customer, PALCUS, its affiliates or third parties. 

PALCUS may share customer information with selected partners/third parties, for example, to provide you with information about products and services, or to enable you to take advantage of special partner programs. PALCUS may also use customer information to periodically provide customers with system information or information about new or upgraded products and services.

PALCUS also will not, except for reasons stated below, disclose to third parties the contents of any electronic mail or other electronic communications that PALCUS stores or transmits for its customers. The circumstances under which PALCUS will disclose such electronic customer communications are when:

1. It is necessary in order to provide service to the customer; 
2. It is necessary to protect the legitimate interests of PALCUS and its customers;
3. It is required to cooperate with interception orders, warrants, or other legal process that PALCUS determines in its sole discretion to be valid and enforceable; and 
4. It is necessary to provide to a law enforcement agency when the contents are inadvertently obtained by PALCUS and appear to pertain to the commission of a crime. 

PALCUS disclaims any intention to censor, edit, or engage in ongoing review or surveillance of communications stored on or transmitted through its facilities by customers or others. PALCUS will, however, review, delete, or block access to communications that may harm PALCUS, its customers or third parties. The grounds on which PALCUS may take such action include, but are not limited to, actual or potential violations of PALCUS Terms of Use.

Email Communications 

PALCUS may use email to communicate with you, respond to your email, and to tell you about new products and services. If you do not wish to receive email promotion announcements from PALCUS, please follow the instructions that appear at the end of the email communication that you received in order to have your name removed from the email list.

Security 

PALCUS utilizes several encryption methods to ensure the data you submit is secure. Through this secure session, information you input will be transmitted privately and unaltered. This security prohibits access to your information by other companies and users.

Links 

PALCUS may contain links to other websites that are owned and operated by parties other than PALCUS. Please be aware that this Privacy Policy does not extend to any websites other than those owned and controlled by PALCUS.
