If we link this information with any Personal Information, we will treat such linked information as Personal Information. 

HOW WE COLLECT AND USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We collect Personal Information from:

 

  • Direct interactions with you, such as when you register with us, interact with us at an event, or otherwise contact us;
  • Through social media, such as if you link to social media platforms or use social media plug-ins, we may (depending on your user privacy settings on that social media platform) automatically receive information about you from that social media platform;
  • Cookies and automated technologies, such as when you interact with our Site or click on links on our emails; or
  • From other sources such as event attendees, sponsors, advertising networks, and analytics providers.

We will use your Personal Information only for the purposes for which it was collected. Those purposes include:

 

  • Member Registration: To register as a member, you will be asked to provide your name, email address, and phone number. You may be asked to choose a password. You may also provide additional information about yourself, including your mailing address, employer, and job title. If you register as member, we will use your Personal Information for all purposes related to your membership, including, without limitation: providing administrative, maintenance, and support services to member accounts and responding to member inquiries, requests, and complaints.

We may also ask you about your preferences for the event and whether you have any dietary restrictions. We will use this information to enable your attendance at our events, deliver to you event materials, and for purposes as described on the event registration page or materials.
  • Electronic Mailing Lists: We will use your Personal Information to send you communications about the Council, this Privacy Policy, and other important administrative announcements. We may also use your Personal Information to send you news, updates, announcements, newsletters, and other marketing communications via email. Some of these communications will be pursuant to our legitimate interests to keep you informed, while other communications may be pursuant to your consent (if we are required by law to obtain your consent). You may opt out of our marketing mailing lists at any time. Once you opt out, we will not reuse your email address for marketing purposes unless you rejoin our marketing lists or otherwise opt in to receive electronic communications from us. See the “User Choices and Opt-Out” Section below for further information on opt-out.
  • Survey and Feedback Forms: We may use online survey and feedback forms to gather opinions, comments, suggestions, etc. about the Council or a Council event. Survey and feedback forms may be completed and submitted by users anonymously without disclosing any Personal Information. However, should you choose to voluntarily disclose Personal Information to us, we will collect and use such information pursuant to our legitimate interests to understand your comments, communicate with you regarding your feedback, and make changes to our services accordingly.
  • Respond to Inquiries: You may submit inquiries to the Council regarding our Site or services. We will use your Personal Information, including your name, email address, and any other Personal Information you shared with us in issuing your inquiry pursuant to our legitimate interests of effectively and efficiently communicating with and responding to you.

COOKIES AND OTHER DATA COLLECTION TECHNOLOGIES 

Please see our Cookie Policy for more information.

 

“DO NOT TRACK” SIGNALS

Some web browsers have “Do Not Track” or similar features that allow you to tell each website you visit that you do not want your activities on that website tracked. At present, the Site does not respond to “Do Not Track” signals and consequently, the Site will continue to collect information about you even if your browser’s “Do Not Track” feature is activated.

 

HOW WE MAY SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We do not share or sell your Personal Information with third parties for their direct marketing use. We will only share your Personal Information with third parties with your consent, at your direction, or in the following circumstances:

 

  • Affiliates: We share Personal Information within our organizational family for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy and as required or authorized by law. Affiliates are those organizations created by and under the common control of the Coalition for Inclusive Capitalism.
  • Service providers: Unless prohibited by applicable law, we may share Personal Information with our third-party service providers that help us operate, such as for website hosting, professional services, analytics, registration management, and email delivery. Such service providers must process the Personal Information we share with them only on our behalf and for the same purposes for which the Personal Information was collected.
  • Transactions: If the Council is acquired by or merged with or into another entity, or if all or substantially all of our assets are transferred to another entity, your Personal Information may be transferred to such entity as part of the transaction. If that entity has not committed to comply with this Privacy Policy, then we will give you the option to opt out of the transfer of your Personal Information to the successor entity.
  • Other lawful disclosures: We may also share Personal Information: (i) if we determine that disclosure is necessary to comply with any law or legal process applicable to us or a request from law enforcement or other regulatory agency; (ii) to protect the rights, privacy, property, interests or safety of the Council or our users, sponsors, employees, or the general public; (iii) to enforce this Privacy Policy; (iv) to respond to an emergency; and (v) as otherwise permitted by applicable law.

 

CHILDREN’S PRIVACY

This Site and our services are not directed to or intended for use by minors. If we learn that we have received any Personal Information directly from a child under age 16, or such other age as set by the laws of jurisdictions where we operate without his or her parent’s verified consent, we will use that Personal Information only to respond directly to that child (or his or her parent or legal guardian) to inform the child that he or she cannot use our services and subsequently we will delete that Personal Information.

SECURITY OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We use reasonable safeguards aimed to protect against unauthorized use, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of the Personal Information we collect and maintain. For example, we encrypt the transmission of your information using secure socket layer (SSL) or similar technologies. However, no data transmission over the internet is ever 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you transmit to our Site.

RETENTION OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will keep your Personal Information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. To determine the appropriate retention period for Personal Information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of Personal Information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your Personal Information, the purposes for which we process your Personal Information, whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and all applicable legal requirements.

THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES

The Council’s Site may contain links to certain third-party websites not owned or operated by us. When you click on a link to a third-party website, you leave our Site and no longer will be subject to our Privacy Policy. The Council does not control and is not responsible for the privacy policies or practices or the content of any third-party websites, and such links are not intended to be an endorsement. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party website prior to providing them with your Personal Information.

USER CHOICES AND OPT-OUT

We offer you choices and opportunities to opt out of certain uses of your Personal Information.
