This privacy statement discloses what information we gather and how we use it.

INFORMATION USAGE: GLOBAL MCN gathers and tracks site traffic on different web pages. Information that users provide through optional, voluntary submissions. These are voluntary submissions to receive our electronic information, newsletters and occasionally to participate in surveys. " Information the COMPANY gathers through aggregated tracking information derived mainly by tallying page views throughout our sites. This information allows us to better tailor our content to readers' needs and to help our advertisers and sponsors better understand the demographics of our audience. Under no circumstances does the COMPANY divulge any information about an individual user to a third party. GLOBAL MCN gathers user information in the following processes:

1. Online membership: We offer membership registration and sign up pages for investors, principals, sellers, buyers, vendors, clients, partners, associates, and affiliates. Registered members will share their business or personal profile for GLOBAL MCN to better match the right people at the right time at the right place. Information will only be shared with blinded profile until both parties are ready to process the specific request.

2. Electronic newsletter, email alerts or online information: We will offer a free electronic newsletter or email alerts to registered members and online users. The COMPANY gathers the email addresses of users who voluntarily subscribe to different mail lists. Users may remove themselves from this mailing list by following the link provided in every newsletter that points users to the subscription management page. Users can also subscribe and unsubscribe to any of the mail lists, twitter or facebook.

3. Surveys: The COMPANY may occasionally conduct user surveys to better target our content to our audience. We sometimes share the aggregated demographic information in these surveys with our sponsors, advertisers and partners. We never share any of this information about specific individuals with any third party.

USAGE TRACKING: The COMPANY tracks user traffic patterns throughout all of our sites. However, we do not correlate this information with data about individual users. The COMPANY does break down overall usage statistics according to a user's domain name, browser type, and MIME type by reading this information from the browser string (information contained in every user's browser). The COMPANY sometimes tracks and catalogs the search terms that users enter in our Search function, but this tracking is never associated with individual users. We use tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users like and don't like based on traffic to those areas. We do not track what individual users read, but rather how well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better service for you.

COOKIES: We may place a text file called a "cookie" in the browser files of your computer. The cookie itself does not contain Personal Information although it will enable us to relate your use of this site to information that you have specifically and knowingly provided. But the only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie can't read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. The COMPANY uses cookies to track user traffic patterns (as described above). Our advertising system delivers a one-time cookie to better track ad impressions and click rates. You can refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser. If you've set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, you will receive the warning message with each cookie. You do not need to have cookies turned on to use this site. However, you do need cookies to participate actively in message boards, forums, polling and surveys.

USE OF INFORMATION: The COMPANY uses any information voluntarily given by our users to enhance their experience in our network of sites, whether to provide interactive or personalized elements on the sites or to better prepare future content based on the interests of our users. When we use tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users like and don't like based on traffic to those areas. We do not track what individual users read, but rather how well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better service for you. We track search terms entered in Search function as one of many measures of what interests our users. But we don't track which terms a particular user enters.

The COMPANY creates aggregate reports on user demographics and traffic patterns for its own executives, advertisers, sponsors and partners. This allows our partners or advertisers to communicate targeted message more effectively, and allows our users to receive messages that are custom tailored to their area of interests. Because we don't track the usage patterns of individual users, an advertiser or sponsor will never know that a specific user clicked their ad. We will not disclose any information about any individual user except to comply with applicable law or valid legal process or to protect the personal safety of our users or the public.

SHARING OF THE INFORMATION: We will not share, trade or resell information about individual users with any third party, except to comply with applicable law or valid legal process or to protect the personal safety of our users or the public.

SECURITY: The COMPANY operates secure data networks protected by industry standard firewall and password protection systems.  Our security and privacy policies are periodically reviewed and enhanced as necessary and only authorized individuals have access to the information provided by our customers.

OPT-OUT POLICY: We provide users easy and convenient ways wherever necessary and practical to opt-out email newsletter, RSS feeds, or any other interactive areas, which completely alleviates the need to gather any personally identifiable information from our users.

YOUR CONSENT: By using this site, you consent to the collection and use of this information by The COMPANY. If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on this page so that you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it.
