Introduction

We understand that you are aware of and care about your own personal privacy interests, and we take that seriously. This Privacy Notice describes Crimson Global Academy(CGA)’s policies and practices regarding its collection and use of your personal data and sets forth your privacy rights. We recognize that information privacy is an ongoing responsibility, and so we will from time to time update this Privacy Notice as we undertake new personal data practices or adopt new privacy policies.

How we collect and use (process) your personal information

Seminars / Webinars:

1. CGA hosts and participates in many events throughout the year. These include in-person seminars, school talks, public expo booths and webinars. If you register for one of our events, we will collect your name and contact information, which we will store in our database(s) and use to provide you with information and services associated with the event. We process this information to fulfill the order you have made to receive the event or web conference services.
2. We keep a record of your participation in CGA events as an attendee. This information may be used to provide you with information about our other events, information or Crimson-related services. It may also be used to help CGA understand our students and their guardians needs and interests to better tailor our products and services to meet your needs.

Use of the crimsonglobalacademy.school Website (Marketing Website contact form, Conversion calculators, eBook/Blog downloads)

As is true of most other websites, CGA’s website collects certain information automatically and stores it in log files. The information may include internet protocol (IP) addresses, the region, or general location where your computer or device is accessing the internet, browser type, operating system, and other usage information about the use of CGA’s website, including a history of the pages you view. We use this information to help us design our site to better suit our users’ needs. We may also use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our website, analyze trends, track visitor movements, and gather broad demographic information that assists us in identifying visitor preferences. CGA’s website also uses cookies and web beacons. It does not track users when they cross to third-party websites, does not provide targeted advertising to them, and therefore Do Not Track (DNT) signals do not apply to CGA. CGA has a legitimate interest in understanding how customers and potential customers use its website. This assists CGA with providing more relevant products and services, with communicating value to our subscribers, and with providing appropriate staffing to meet potential customers and customer needs.

Marketing Communications

• CGA, from time-to-time, may send you marketing communications using the personal information you provide to us. You can ask us not to send you marketing communications at any time by following the unsubscribe button at the bottom of the marketing communication, or by making a request by emailing info@crimsoneducation.org.
