1. Introduction. We have implemented this Privacy Policy because at icts.io, we recognize that your privacy is very important and take it seriously. This Privacy Policy explains our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your Personal Information is collected and used in connection with the Site. “Personal Information” means any information that may be used, either alone or in combination with other information, to personally identify an individual, including, but not limited to, a first and last name, a personal profile, an email address, a home or other physical address, or other contact information.
2. Terms of Use. This Privacy Policy forms part of our Terms of Use which is available at [Link to Terms of Use page] (the “Terms“). Any capitalized but undefined term in this Privacy Policy shall have the meaning given to it in the Terms.
3. Consent and Modification.

If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, please do not access or otherwise use the Site. We reserve the right, at our discretion, to change this Privacy Policy at any time. Such change will be effective ten (10) days following posting of the revised Privacy Policy on the Site, and your continued use of the Site thereafter means that you accept those changes.
4. What Personal Information We Collect and How We Collect It. We do not currently require you to provide Personal Information in order to have access to general information available on the Site. However we do receive and/or collect Personal Information from you in the following ways:
4.1. Contact Us’ Information. If you contact us, whether by submitting an online form that we may make available or by sending an email to an email address that we display, you may be required to provide us with certain information such as your email address. We may also retain information contained in your correspondence with us.
4.2. Invitations to Friends. The Site may enable you to invite your friends to use our Site by sending them an invitation email or message through the Site. You may do so by: (i) using the Site to send or post an invitation or introduction message via your Third Party Account; and/or (ii) using the Site to send an invitation or introduction email to your friend’s external email address (for example, a gmail address). If you send or post an invitation message we may collect Personal Information about the recipient such as their email address, LinkedIn id, LinkedIn profile, Facebook id, Facebook profile, Google+ id, Google+ profile information or their party website account username and id.
4.3. Log Files. We may make use of log files. Log file information is automatically reported by your browser each time you access a web page. The information inside the log files includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, type of browser, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date/time stamp, referring/exit pages, clicked pages and any other information your browser may send to us. We may use such information to analyze trends, administer the Site, track users’ movement around the Site, and gather demographic information.
4.4. Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies. Our Site may utilize “cookies”, anonymous identifiers and other tracking technologies, such as clear GIFs (also known as ‘web beacons’), in order to for us to provide our Site and present you with information that is customized for you. A “cookie” is a small text file that may be used, for example, to collect information about activity on the Site. Certain cookies sent to your browser and other technologies may serve to recall Personal Information, such as an IP address, previously indicated by a user. Most browsers allow you to control cookies, including whether or not to accept them and how to remove them. Persistent cookies, which remain on your computer after you close your browser for use during later visits to the Site, can be removed through using your browser. You may set most browsers to notify you if you receive a cookie, or you may choose to block cookies with your browser. However, some features of the Service may not function properly if the ability to accept cookies is disabled. We may use clear GIFs to anonymously track online usage patterns of Site users and in e-mails we may send to users to track which e-mails are opened.
5. Analytics Tools. Our Site may use analytics tools such as ‘Google Analytics’, ‘Fullstory’ and ‘Intercom’ to collect information about use of our Site (‘Analytics Tools‘). These Analytics Tools collect information such as how often users visit a Site, what pages they visit when they do so, and what other sites they used prior to coming to the Site. We use the information we get from the Analytics Tools to maintain and improve the Site’s technical performance. Analytics Tools typically utilize ‘cookies’, small text files that may serve to recall Personal Information, such as an IP address, previously indicated by a user. Most browsers allow you to control cookies, including whether or not to accept and/or remove them. You may set most browsers to notify you if you receive a cookie, or you may choose to block cookies with your browser. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to this Site is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Service, available at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/us.html, and the Google Privacy Policy, available at http://www.google.com/policies/privacy/. You can prevent Google Analytics from recognizing you on return visits to this Site by disabling cookies on your browser.
6. Publicly Available Information. Your Public Profile, including your name and other information you choose to make public via your Public Profile, and any content that you post on or via the Site (‘User Submissions’ which may include Personal Information) may be publicly available to other Site users, and may also be accessed and used by people off the Site. If you publish your contact information in any User Submissions or as part of your Public Profile, you may receive unsolicited messages from other users of the Site or the public. We therefore encourage you to only post information that you are sure you want to be accessible to anyone. In addition, your Public Profile will include a link to your LinkedIn/Facebook/Google+ account, which LinkedIn/Facebook/Google+ members may use to connect with you on LinkedIn.

10. Choice. At all times, you may choose whether or not to provide or disclose Personal Information. If you choose not to provide mandatory Personal Information, you may still visit parts of the Site but you may be unable to access certain options, programs, offers, and services that involve our interaction with you.

Accordingly, we encourage you to read the terms and conditions and privacy policy of each Third Party Service that you choose to use or interact with.

We follow generally accepted industry standards, including the use of appropriate administrative, physical and technical safeguards, to protect the Personal Information submitted to us. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security or confidentiality. If you have any questions about security on the Service, you can contact us at info@icts.io
