Last Updated: 28 September, 2015
True North Group Limited, trading as a TNG Global (“TNG” or “us” or “we”), developed the website with the domain “www.tng-global.com” (the “Site” or “Website”) and use of the Site is subject to your compliance with the Privacy Policy outlined herein. We provide this Privacy Policy to ensure you understand your obligations and also explain how we use your personal and business information.
Information we collect
TNG collects information when you subscribe to our Website, and use various other features and services we provide. In some cases, if you choose not to provide us with requested information, you may not be able to access all of the great content we provide.
Use of Cookies
At TNG, we believe in being clear and open about how we use your information. In the spirit of transparency, this policy provides detailed information about how and when we use cookies.
A cookie is a small file placed onto your device that enables features and functionality. For example, cookies enable us to identify your device, secure your access to TNG Global’s site, and even know if someone attempts to access your account from a different device. Cookies also enable you to easily share content on our Community and help us serve provide relevant content to you.
We use cookies and other technologies to ensure everyone who uses the TNG Global Site has the best possible experience. Cookies also help us keep your account safe.
By continuing to use our services, you are agreeing to the use of cookies and similar technologies for the purposes we describe in this policy.
TNG Subscribers
You can choose to subscribe to our email list to receive free electronic newsletters or sign up for a member account. When you subscribe, we ask you to provide us with information such as your name, email address, city/state and other identifiable information. We keep this information on file to contact you with services and products related to the Website and to answer any questions or concerns you may have.
How we use your information
Information about our subscribers and members is an important part of our business, and we are not in the business of selling it to others. As a Member of the TNG Community, you will share information online with other members through forums, discussion groups, chats and messaging.
We use the information you provide us to contact you about our products, features and services. TNG may also share information with third parties to assist in providing a more relevant and useful experience. The information collected on our Website in the aggregate enables us to better understand your use of the Website and to enhance your enjoyment.
It is possible that we may need to disclose the information you provide to our Website when we have a good faith belief that disclosure is necessary to (a) prevent illegal activity or assist government enforcement agencies; (b) to enforce other agreements and defend ourselves against allegations/claims; (c) to protect the rights, property or personal safety of TNG employees, users or others and/or (d) to protect the security or integrity of the Website. In those instances, the information is provided only for that limited purpose.
Your information choices
Terms relating to licensing of “Content” are described in the Membership User Agreement. If you visit our Website and volunteer personally identifiable information, you can always opt out of receiving content and review, modify, update, or delete such information by updating the settings in your Profile (as a registered member), or by contacting [email protected]. Please be aware that even after your request for a change is processed, TNG may keep information about you in its backup and/or archival copies of its database.
Your obligation as a user
As a user of our Website, you have certain obligations. Some are imposed by laws, and others have become commonplace in user friendly communities of like-minded members such as TNG Global:
You must, at all times, abide by the terms and conditions of our current Privacy Policy and Membership User Agreement. This includes respecting all intellectual property rights that may belong to third parties (such as trademarks or photographs).
You must not download or otherwise disseminate any information that may be deemed to be injurious, violent and offensive or which may otherwise violate the spirit of our Website.
Any violation of these guidelines may lead to the restriction, suspension or termination of your use of our Website.
Your consent and changes
By using our Website, you consent to our use of information that is collected and submitted as described in this Privacy Policy. We reserve the right in our sole discretion to change, modify, add or delete the Privacy Policy at any time. We will provide notice of such changes only by posting the updated Privacy Policy on the Website and changing the “last updated” date listed above. The Privacy Policy applies exclusively to your access to, interaction with, and use of, the Website. We encourage you to review our Privacy Policy regularly to see if it has been updated since your last visit.
Security
We have security measures on our systems and work hard to secure your personal information from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction. We periodically review our processing practices to guard against unauthorized access to our system. However, despite our efforts, we cannot ensure or completely guarantee a 100% secure environment. We restrict access to personal information to employees, contractors, and agents who need to know that information in order to process it for us, and who are subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations and may be disciplined or terminated if they fail to meet these obligations.
Waiver
TNG ASSUMES NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY WITH REGARD TO ANY THEFT, LOSS, ALTERATION OR MISUSE OF PERSONAL OR OTHER INFORMATION LAWFULLY PROVIDED BY WP CURVE TO THIRD PARTIES, OR WITH REGARD TO THE FAILURE OF ANY THIRD PARTY TO ABIDE BY THIS PRIVACY POLICY OR AGREEMENT BETWEEN THAT THIRD PARTY AND TNG.
