WHAT INFORMATION IS COLLECTED?

Some information is required while other information is discretionary. Each service requires or requests different types of information in order for users to receive the desired level of service or response requested.   Services that require provision of personal information generally seek full name, email address, and phone number. Depending on the request or service a user requires, we also may request personal information, such as a mailing address. We endeavor to limit our requests for personal information to information we believe is minimally necessary to achieve our stated collection purposes.

HOW DOES CAPTEL USE MY INFORMATION? 

Personal information is collected and used primarily for such purposes as, for example, evaluating an application for employment, processing a request for a quotation or service proposal. In particular, a user's mailing and billing addresses are used for fulfilling project agreements. The personal information provided in resumes or by e-mail is used to consider the eligibility of candidates. 

In addition to the primary purposes for which personal information is collected, we may use the personal information to contact a user to confirm information related to a service or an information request. We may also use a user's email address, phone number or address: 

  • to obtain feedback on our service, our web site, or on other aspects of our business that affects you as a CAPTEL client;

 WHAT ARE COOKIES AND WHY CAPTEL NEVER USES THEM?

A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer's hard drive. CAPTEL never uses "cookie" technology for several reasons: 1) they are an annoyance to the user; 2) they track general information about users that we consider completely irrelevant; and 3) we consider cookies which establish a link between your computer and captel.net to log in without providing your password could jeopardize the security of your information and our systems.

HOW DOES CAPTEL HANDLE SECURE DATA TRANSMISSIONS?

We use industry-standard, SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption. 

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal or project information, CAPTEL cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our Client Access Area, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.

CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY STATEMENT
