How and Why We Collect Information

We collect your information in order to record and support your participation in the activities you select from our sites. If you register for notifications and news, resources, strategy session, course, or a webinar, for example, the information is used to connect you to that service and to keep you informed. As a visitor to our sites, you can engage without providing any personal information.

If you opt in to receive a service or purchase any product, you will automatically be subscribed to our free notifications that are relevant to the service or product you are interested in.

If you do not wish to receive future notifications via email, you may opt out at any time.

We include an unsubscribe link at the bottom of every e-mail we send. If you have any trouble opting out, please send an email to publisher@abrige.com and we will manually remove you from our e-mail list(s).

In connection with other activities, such as taking an assessment or applying for a strategy session, we may ask you to provide certain information about yourself by filling out and submitting an online form. It is completely optional for you to engage in these activities. If you do not provide the mandatory data with respect to a particular activity, you will not be able to engage in that activity.

In all cases, we will collect personally identifiable information from you only if you voluntarily submit such information to us. We will also tell you how we use your information or if we share it with another party. Except as otherwise stated in this policy, we will never intentionally disclose any personal information to any third party without having received your permission.

If you supply us with your contact information you may receive periodic e-mails, mailings or calls from us with information on new products and services, important issues, or upcoming events.
