Your privacy on coastalbt.com

This website is administered by Coastal Business Technologies, LLC. The primary purpose of coastalbt.com is to be your strategic consultative partner. We want you to feel secure when visiting our site and are committed to maintaining your privacy when doing so.

The following provides an overview of how we protect your privacy during your visit.

What information do we gather?

Information on solutions by coastalbt.com is gathered in two ways: (1) indirectly (for example, through our site’s technology); and (2) directly (for example, when you provide information on various pages of coastalbt.com).

One example of information we collect indirectly is through our Internet access logs. When you access coastalbt.com, your Internet IP address is automatically collected and placed in our secure Internet access logs.

We collect information directly from you in a number of ways, some of which we describe in this Privacy Statement. One way is through the use of cookies. Cookies are small files of information, which save and retrieve information about your visit to coastalbt.com —for example, how you entered our site, how you navigated through the site, and what information was of interest to you. The cookies we use identify you merely as a number. (If you are uncomfortable regarding cookies use, please keep in mind you can disable cookies on your computer by changing the settings in preferences or options menu in your browser.)

We also collect information when you voluntarily submit it to us. Throughout our site, we provide the opportunity to complete a contact form, download a white paper, or comment on our news and employee blog sections. When we collect this type of information, we will notify you via email as to why we are asking for information and how this information will be used. It is completely up to you whether you want to provide it.

How do we use this information?

We analyze it to determine what is most effective about our site to help us identify ways to improve it, and, eventually, to determine how we can tailor coastalbt.com to make it more effective. We may also use this data for other purposes in the future, which we would describe to you at the point we collect the information.

What about sensitive personal data?

We do not generally seek to collect sensitive personal data through this site. If we do seek to collect such data, we will ask you to consent to our proposed uses of the data. We may also collect some sensitive personal data incidentally. By providing us with unsolicited sensitive personal data, you consent to our using the data subject to applicable law as described in this Privacy Statement.

What about data security?

We take appropriate steps to maintain the security of your data on coastalbt.com. You should understand that the open nature of the Internet is such that data may flow over networks without security measures and may be accessed and used by people other than those for whom the data is intended.

In short, we are committed to maintaining your privacy and creating a valuable resource for you to use. If you have any questions now or during your visit, please contact us.
