Please take the time to read the following charter in order to familiarize yourself with the uses made of the personal data you submit when using the resources available on the www.Globethics.net site. We reserve the right to modify this charter and would therefore request that you consult it regularly.
When you subscribe to GLOBETHICS.NET, you are asked to give some personal details. You will be able to see clearly which fields request information which will be made public if you fill them in.
Please note that your email address will never appear on the website. Anyone who wants to send you a message, will have to click on your name. This will open a message window, which will display your name and surname only.
In order to be able to provide you with customized and customizable services, GLOBETHICS.NET uses cookies to record and sometimes also follow-up your personal data. A cookie is a small block of data sent to your navigator by a web server and stored on your computer's hard disk.
Ensure we have the possibility of identifying you and accessing any information relating to your account (as stored on our own servers) with the aim of providing you with a better service that is as personalized as possible. This cookie becomes activated as soon as you register or connect to a service and is changed when you disconnect from our services.
Measure specific navigation patterns, identify those pages that are visited and, more generally, determine your visiting habits. We make use of this research to analyse similarities or differences in the visiting habits of our users in order that we might better anticipate your expectations of us. We make use of this information to better customize our content, banners and special offers, for example.
Remote advertising servers and/or advertisers' networks which download ads directly onto the GLOBETHICS.NET site can also make use of their own cookies.
GLOBETHICS.NET also collects IP addresses when you register. This enables us to provide the relevant authorities with the necessary information should the system be abused.
GLOBETHICS.NET uses the information you provide when you register. When you register, you expressly authorize GLOBETHICS.NET to process this information. These data are also used for statistical purposes in relation to the amount of visits to specific sections within the www.globethics.net site.
When you navigate on GLOBETHICS.NET and are invited to submit personal data, you are sharing this data with GLOBETHICS.NET only, unless explicit notification is given to the contrary.
Furthermore, advertisers and external websites linking to us will not have access to your private details.
GLOBETHICS.NET undertakes never to disclose your personal data, unless you have provided express authorization to the contrary, or in quite specific circumstances, such as those outlined below.
You will receive direct mail only from GLOBETHICS.NET. If you do not wish to receive these messages, you need only unsubscribe when you receive a message.
You also have the possibility of influencing the way in which cookies are used. Within your navigator preferences, you can accept all cookies, choose to be warned whenever a cookie is activated, or reject all cookies. Should you choose this last option, you will not be able to use the GLOBETHICS.NET services for which you are required to register.
In any case and in accordance with applicable legislation, you have the right to access, rectify and remove your personal data. This right is available to you within your personal/Backstage pages. Alternatively you can send an e-mail to this end to info@globethics.net.
You can change your GLOBETHICS.NET account and profile information using your user name and password.
We recommend that you avoid disclosing your password to any third parties. GLOBETHICS.NET will never ask for your password by calling or e-mailing you if you have not requested this communication. Furthermore, do not forget to disconnect from your GLOBETHICS.NET account and to close the navigator window when you leave your work session. This will ensure that any other users with whom you share your computer will not gain access to your personal information and correspondence. This also applies if you work in a public area such as a library or cyber café.
Unfortunately it is very difficult to guarantee secure data transfer on the Internet to 100%. Therefore, although we take all of the possible measures to protect your personal data, GLOBETHICS.NET is unable to guarantee that the information you submit either directly or through our on-line products and services is secure. You therefore submit all information at your own risk. As soon as we receive your data, we endeavo rto ensure it is secure within our own systems.
You should always bear in mind that each time you voluntarily provide personal information on-line (in chat groups, by e-mail or within discussion groups, for example), this information can be collected and used by third parties. To sum up, therefore, if you make personal information available on-line such that it can be accessed by the public, you risk receiving undesired messages from third parties.
Finally, you should know that you alone are responsible for preserving the confidentiality of your passwords and/or any other information that concerns your account. Please act with prudence and responsibility each time you work on-line.
