Cookies

A cookie is a data file that certain web sites write to your computer's hard drive when you visit such sites. A cookie file can contain information, such as a user identification code, that the site uses to track the pages you have visited. Exec Digital uses cookies to track user traffic patterns throughout the Web Site and to remember certain types of information such as your job title and industry status so that you don't have to login each time you visit the Web Site. We use this data on an anonymous basis and we do not correlate this information with personal data of any user.

Business partners of Exec Digital and vendors providing hosting and other services for Exec Digital, as well as advertisers who contract directly with a third-party service to serve their advertisements on our Web Site may set their own unique cookies on your browser. We do not have access to these cookies or any information that they may contain.

Most web site browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually change your browser settings to display a warning before accepting a cookie, or to refuse all cookies. However, if you choose to disable the receipt of cookies from our website, you may not be able to use certain features of the site.

Browser Level Information

Exec Digital Web servers automatically collect information about a site user's IP address, browser type and the URL that you just came from (whether this URL is on the website or not) and which URL you next go to (whether this URL is on the website or not) by reading this information from the user's browser (information provided by every user's browser). This information is collected in a database and used -- in an aggregated, anonymous manner -- in our internal analysis of traffic patterns within our website. This information is automatically logged by most websites.

To Target Content

To develop content targeted to your interests, we use aggregated user information to determine which areas of our Web Site users prefer based upon traffic to those areas. We do not track what individual users read, but instead how well each page or content area performs overall.

From time to time we may provide e-mails highlighting new features, promotions or contests on the Web Site to those users who have expressly provided us with their permission to send such communications as part of their user profile.

Control of Your Information

Users may change their user profile to stop receiving newsletters or marketing material from execdigital.com or on behalf of external third party business partners. Users may choose to stop receiving such communications at any time by following unsubscribe instructions at the end of any e-mail.

Sharing of Information

When you are on an area of execdigital.com and are asked for personal information, you are sharing that information with Exec Digital as well as business partners and vendors providing hosting and other services for Exec Digital. If you do not want your information to be shared, you can choose not to allow the transfer of your information by not using that particular service. In addition, any personally identifiable information provided by our users as part of an advertiser promotion online may be provided directly to advertisers.

Aggregate, Anonymous Information with Advertisers

Exec Digital derives the majority of its revenue from advertising and sharing information is essential to keeping our services affordable to users. In order to attract and retain advertisers we use the aggregated, anonymous information that we gather (as well as information from third-party market researchers) to describe our services to partners and to assist our advertisers and sponsors to better understand our audience.

As Necessary to Provide Services to You

We occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services on our behalf, such as, but not limited to, handling the processing and delivery of newsletter mailings, processing transactions, or performing statistical analysis of our services. We will only provide those companies the personal information they need to deliver the service. In some instances, one of these companies may collect information directly from you (such as for credit card processing). In these cases, you will be notified of the involvement of the external service provider.

In the Event of Sale or Bankruptcy

The ownership of execdigital.com may change at some point in the future. Should that occur, we want this site to be able to maintain a relationship with you. In the event of a sale, merger, public offering, bankruptcy or other change in control of WDM and/or execdigital.com your information may be shared with the person or business that owns or controls this site. Opting out of receiving information from third parties will not affect our right to transfer your information to a new owner, but your choices will continue to be respected regarding the use of your information.

As Required by Law

Exec Digital may disclose your personal information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on execdigital.com or to protect and defend the rights or property of Exec Digital.

Security

Your information is stored on Exec Digital’s servers located in the United Kingdom. We use procedural and technical safeguards to protect your personal information against loss or theft as well as unauthorized access and disclosure to protect your privacy, including encryption, "firewalls" and Secure Socket Layers. We treat data as an asset that must be protected against loss and unauthorized access. We employ many different security techniques to protect such data from unauthorized access by users inside and outside the company. "Perfect security," however, does not exist on the Internet.

Privacy of Children

Kids under 13: Do not send any information about yourself to us -- including information such as your name, address, or e-mail address. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. In the event that we learn we have collected any personal information from a child under the age of 13 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information from our database as quickly as possible.

How to Contact Us

If you have any questions regarding our privacy statement, please feel free to contact us by e-mail at privacy@execdigital.com. We read every message submitted and try to reply promptly to every request.

How Will I Know if the Privacy Policy Is Changed?

This statement may change from time to time, so please check back periodically. If we are going to be using the information collected from users in a manner materially different from that stated at the time of collection, we will send affected users written notice of the change by e-mail.
