What Information Do We Collect?

We may collect, store, and use personally identifiable and non-personally identifiable information as described below.

Soucy Consulting may request or collect personal information from online users in a variety of ways, including through online forms and other instances where users are invited to volunteer such information.

The data we collect is information that identifies you personally when filling in forms on our site, as appropriate, and you may be asked to enter your name, email address, mailing address, phone number, transactional data such as details from credit cards or other payment forms and any other details to help us process your requests and to enhance the overall user experience.

Personal information applies only to any information that may be used to distinguish, identify or contact a specific individual. Exceptions include business contact information and publicly available information such as name, address, and telephone numbers as published in telephone directories. However, it does not apply to anonymous or non-personal information (i.e., information that cannot be associated with or tracked back to a specific individual).

We may also collect information about how users access the website using a tracking ID unique to each user through the use of cookies.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Cookies

Storing cookies. We may use cookies on this Website to enhance your user experience. A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your hard disk by a webpage server. One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. For example, if you navigate within a website, a cookie helps the website to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of delivering relevant content, eases website navigation, and so on.

Browser Setting. You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Internet browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the features of this or other websites you visit.

Aggregated Website Statistics. Web beacons, also known as clear gif technology, or action tags, may be used to assist in delivering the cookie on the Website. We may use this technology as a tool to compile aggregated statistics about the Website usage, such as how many visitors clicked on key elements (such as links or graphics) on a webpage. We may share such Website statistics with partner companies.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who we share your data with

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

How we protect your data

Our website is scanned on a regular basis for security holes and known vulnerabilities in order to make your visit to our site as safe as possible. We use regular Malware Scanning. We use an SSL certificate. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. However, due to computer hackers, electronic malfunctions, and other events, we cannot guarantee that such safeguards will always protect such information.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
