This statement applies to astutemetrics websites worldwide.

 

We will do nothing with your personal data that you would not anticipate from a privacy conscious company with a contact strategy founded on permission-based marketing. Your data will not be disclosed to any other party without your consent unless they act in the capacity of a data processor under our contractual obligations, or we are obliged to by law.

 

We will use the information you provide, or gathered from web-based technology, to try to sell you our services and those of our partner organisations. If we exceed the bounds of reasonable expectations you will exercise your right to leave and we will have lost you as a valued customer. This is not in our interest.

 

We seek your permission not through a 'tick box' mentality but by your assessment of our merit and worth as a trusted supplier. Should we fail, you may unsubscribe from our services at any time by e-mailing us at website@astutemetrics.com
