Our
Commitment To Privacy
Your privacy is
important to us. To better protect your privacy we provide this notice explaining
our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way
your information is collected and used. To make this notice easy to find, we
make it available on our homepage and at every point where personally identifiable
information may be requested.
The
Information We Collect
This notice
applies to all information collected or submitted on the INTERCARGO website.
On some pages, you can make requests, and register to receive information. The
types of personal information collected at these pages are:
On some pages, you can submit information about other people. For example, you can email information from a discussion in our member's forum to a recipient, you will need to submit the recipient's email address. In this circumstance, the types of personal information collected are:
We maintain databases on State control inspections and experiences when loading and unloading dry bulk cargoes at Terminals. The information collected is limited to that identified on the relevant forms.
You may elect to join INTERCARGO by submitting an online form. The information collected is limited to that identified on the relevant forms, and will be stored in secure internal membership databases.
Our webserver is not set up to generally track, collect or distribute personal information about its visitors. It does recognise the home server of visitors, but not email addresses. For example, we can tell which Internet Service Provider our visitors use, but not the names, addresses or other information about our visitors that would allow us to identify the particular visitors to our sites. This information is used only for internal purposes. For example, we compile statistics that show the daily number of visitors to our sites, the daily requests we receive for particular files on our web sites, and what countries those requests come from. These aggregated statistics are used internally to better provide services to the members and may also be provided to others, but again, the statistics contain no personal information and cannot be used to gather such information.
We do, however, collect additional information, such as, but not limited to Internet IP addresses when accessing the Member's only areas of the site, and the Member forums.
The
Way We Use Information
WE DO
NOT SELL, TRADE, EXCHANGE OR OTHERWISE MAKE AVAILABLE ANY PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE
INFORMATION TO ANY OTHER COMPANY OR ORGANISATION, except where it is explicitly
stated that information may be shared (for example in the Inspection Reporting
form).
We use return email addresses to answer the email we receive. Such addresses are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with outside parties.
You can register with our website if you would like to join our email list for updates on our new products and services. We only collect email addresses for this purpose, and you may remove your address yourself.
Finally, we never use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt-out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.
How
We use "Cookies"
A Cookie is
a piece of text asking permission to be placed on your computer's hard drive.
If you agree, then your browser adds the text in a small file. Our Member forum
system uses cookies to remember your login information, if you ask it to, and
the status of the forum when you leave it. This cookie allows the forum system
to respond to you as an individual, so that when you return, it can determine,
for example, which postings have been made since your last visit. No other parts
of the site use cookies.
You may set your
web browser (Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator) to notify you
of cookie placement requests or decline cookies completely. You can delete the
files that contain cookies; those files are stored as part of your Internet
browser.
