Safe Harbor
Data Privacy Notice:
We adhere
to the Safe Harbor Principles published by the U.S. Department
of Commerce (the "Safe Harbor Principles") with respect
to personal information (as defined below) it receives from the
European Union.
This notice
outlines our general policy and practices for implementing the
Safe Harbor Principles, including the type of information to which
this notice applies, how we use personal information, and the
choices individuals have regarding our use of, and their ability
to correct, that personal information. If there is any conflict
between the policies in this notice and the Safe Harbor Principles,
the Safe Harbor Principles will govern.
This notice
applies to all personal information we handle, including on-line
(except as noted below), off-line, and manually processed data.
For purposes of this notice, "personal information"
means data that:
* is transferred
from the European Union to the United States;
* is recorded in any form; and
* is about, or pertains to, a specific individual who is identified
in, or is identifiable from, the data.
"Sensitive
information" is a subcategory of personal information. Sensitive
information is defined as personal information specifying medical
or health conditions, racial or ethnic origin, political opinions,
religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, or
the sex life of the individual. Sensitive information also includes
personal information received from a third party where the third
party treats and identifies it as sensitive.
Safe Harbor
Principles Regarding Personal Information
Notice and
Choice:
We notify
individuals about the personal information we collect from them,
how we use it, and how to contact us with privacy concerns. We
obtain personal information only as permitted by the Safe Harbor
Principles or with the consent of the individual affected. Consent
for personal information to be collected, used, and/or disclosed
in certain ways may be required in order for an individual to
obtain or use our services. To the extent permitted under the
Safe Harbor, we reserve the right to process personal information
in the course of providing professional services to our clients
without the knowledge of individuals involved.
Disclosures
and Transfers:
We do not
disclose personal information to third parties, except when one
or more of the following conditions is true:
* We have
the individual's permission to make the disclosure;
* The disclosure is permitted by law or mandatory professional
standards;
* The disclosure is reasonably related to the sale or other disposition
of all or part of our business or assets;
* The personal information to be disclosed is publicly available;
* The party to whom the disclosure is made controls, is controlled
by, or is under common control with Seven Corners, Inc.;
* The disclosure is reasonably necessary for the establishment
or maintenance of legal claims; or
* The disclosure is to persons or entities for whom we are providing
services, provided the disclosure is consistent with the purpose
for which the personal information was obtained.
We will comply
with the Safe Harbor Principles with respect to disclosures of
sensitive information, including, when applicable, obtaining the
explicit consent of the individual prior to disclosing sensitive
information to a third party or using sensitive information for
purposes other than those for which it was originally collected
or subsequently authorized by the individual. Transfers of information
permitted under this notice, either to third parties or within
Seven Corners, Inc., include the transfer of data from one jurisdiction
to another, such as transfers to and from the United States of
America.
Data Security,
Integrity, and Access:
We employ
physical, electronic, and managerial measures, including education
and training of our personnel, designed to provide the personal
information in our possession with reasonable protection from
accidental loss or destruction, improper use, alteration, or disclosure.
Personal information collected or displayed through a Web site
is protected in transit by industry standard encryption processes.
However, we cannot guarantee the security of personal information
accessible on or transmitted via the Internet.
We process
personal information in ways compatible with the purpose for which
the personal information was collected, or as otherwise authorized
by the individual. To the extent necessary for such purposes,
we take reasonable steps to make sure that personal information
is accurate, complete, current, and otherwise reliable with regard
to its intended use.
If an individual
becomes aware that personal information we maintain about that
individual is inaccurate, or if an individual would like to update
or review his or her personal information, the individual may
contact us using the contact information below. As a security
precaution, we may request that the individual provide identifying
information such as name, address, birth date, and/or social security
number. In addition, we may limit or deny access to personal information
where providing such access would be unreasonably burdensome or
expensive in the circumstances, or as otherwise permitted by the
Safe Harbor Agreement. In some circumstances, we may charge a
reasonable fee, where warranted, for access to personal information.
Accountability
and Enforcement:
We established
a program to monitor our adherence to the Safe Harbor Principles
and to address questions and concerns regarding our adherence.
With respect
to any dispute relating to this notice that cannot be resolved
through our internal processes, we will cooperate with competent
European Union data protection authorities and comply with the
advice of such authorities. In the event that we or such authorities
determine that we did not comply with this notice, we will take
appropriate steps to address any adverse effects and to promote
future compliance.
Amendment:
We may amend
this notice from time to time by posting a revised notice on this
Web site, or a similar Web site that replaces this Web site. If
we amend the notice, the new notice will apply to personal information
previously collected only insofar as the rights of the individual
affected are not reduced. So long as we profess to adhere to the
Safe Harbor Principles, we will not amend this notice in a manner
inconsistent with the Safe Harbor Principles.
