Brief Summary
We know that protecting your personal information is very important to you (as it is to us!) so we have developed this Confidentiality Statement and Privacy Policy to help explain how we handle any personal information you may share with us. 5Pillars Media will only collect, use, and share your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
Personal information is information you provide to us that personally identifies you (e.g., your name, email address, or any other information that can be reasonably linked to such identifying information by us).
Our Privacy Policy applies whether you use 5Pillars Media through http://www.5pillarsuk.com or any mobile applications we may develop, or any of our other products or services that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, “Service”).
This Privacy Policy also covers 5Pillars Media’s use of your personal information that our partners or other services might share with us. This may happen if a third party performs a teacher survey on our behalf.
However, this policy does not apply to websites or services of companies that 5Pillars Media doesn’t own or control, such as third party services you might access through links or other features (e.g., social media, payment gatewats) that may appear on our Service. These other services are governed by their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them before providing them with personal information.
We strongly encourage you to familiarize yourself with our privacy practices and if you have any questions you can send us an email at [email protected] and we will respond as quickly as possible.
By using our Service, you acknowledge that you accept and agree to this Privacy Policy.
We deploy all efforts to protect the private nature of your personal information. Since we collect information about you using our website, we feel that it is important that you understand how we collect and use this information. This page summarizes our personal information collection practices.
PERSONAL INFORMATION COLLECTION
All personal information collected by 5Pillars Media is done so exclusively with your consent, by means of a form posted on our website, an email received from you or by telephone. No information is collected automatically.
USE OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
The personal information collected is only used by 5Pillars Media staff for the purposes defined at the time of the collection or a use that complies with these purposes. We do not share your information with any third parties.
As mentioned above, we use your personal information to appropriately process your requests and present you with the information you need to access. We also use all of the information you provide voluntarily in order to make your visits on our site possible. This information might, at a later time, allow us to add customized elements to our site or to plan its content more appropriately, based on user interests.
If you have granted us the permission to, we can use your personal information in order to send you newsletters, with the intent of offering you the best service possible.
SHARING OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
We will not, in any circumstances, share your personal information with other individuals or organizations without your permission, including public organizations, corporations or individuals, except when applicable by law. We do not sell, communicate or divulge your information to any mailing lists. We can offer to add your address to a 5Pillars Media mailing list or list server if you request it. In this last case, you may at any time ask us to remove your name from such lists.
COOKIES
We use a component of your browser named a cookie to recognize your computer. Cookies are small data files that are saved on your hard drive when you visit websites. These files make browsing the sites easier.
We do not and cannot use cookies to retrieve your personal information from your computer. The information collected is instead used for statistical purposes, among others to compute the number of visitors and find out which pages are the most visited.
If you configure your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, a prompt will pop-up each time a site asks for permission to save a cookie on your computer. You can refuse cookies by configuring your browser to reject them.
STORAGE AND SAFETY OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
We store your file ourselves. In addition, we use and apply the appropriate security measures to preserve the confidentiality of your information.
5Pillars Media notably uses software to monitor traffic on its network in order to detect unauthorized attempts to download or change information, or to otherwise damage the site. This software receives and records the IP address of the computer used by the person visiting our website, the date and time of the visit and the pages viewed. We do not attempt to make the connection between these addresses and the identities of the individuals who visit our site, unless an intrusion or disruption attempt is detected.
LEGAL PROTECTION
All personal information you supply is protected according to the UK Government’s Privacy Act. This means that you are entitled to know when the information is collected and to be informed of the purpose of such collection, but also to access said information. We are legally bound to save all personal information you provide for at least two years after their use so that you may reasonably access them. After that time, your personal information will be destroyed.
