At Trainings Time (www.trainingstime.com), we are committed to protecting your privacy and giving you a secure online experience. You can travel through most of our sites without giving us any information about yourself. But sometimes, we do need the information to provide certain content, services, and products that you request. This privacy statement explains data collection and uses in those situations. By accessing or using the site, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy.
Changes to Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes to our online privacy practices. If we make any material changes, we will notify you by sending an email to the email address specified in your account, if you have one, or using a notice on the site before the change becomes effective. Your use of the site after such notification shall constitute your acceptance of the terms of the revised Privacy Policy.
Types of Information Collected and Uses of that Information
We collect two types of information about users of the website: Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and Non-Personally Identifiable Information.
- Personally Identifiable Information: Personally Identifiable Information is information that identifies a specific user. When you engage in certain activities on the website, such as ordering email newsletters, joining a limited-access premium site, or purchasing products or services (collectively, “Identification Activities”), we will ask you to provide certain information about yourself (often is limited to email address, country or location, but may include other information when needed to fulfill your request or order). It is optional for you to engage in these activities. Depending on the activity, some of the information we ask you to provide is identified as mandatory, and some are identified as voluntary. If you do not provide the mandatory information for a particular activity that requires it, you will not be permitted to engage in that activity.
- Trainings Time will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on Trainings Time or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of Trainings Time and its family of Web sites, and, (c) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of Trainings Time, its Web sites, or the public.
- We use Personally Identifiable Information to provide services to you. For example, if you register for an account on the website with a valid access code, you will be able to access certain content (subject, of course, to the Terms & Conditions). Or, if you send our customer service an email, we will use your Personally Identifiable Information to respond to your email. We may also use Personally Identifiable Information to perform marketing activities, troubleshoot, resolve disputes, accomplish administrative tasks, enforce our agreements with you, comply with applicable law, and cooperate with law enforcement activities. In addition, your personal information is also used to keep you informed about product upgrades, special offers, and other products and services of Trainings Time and selected third parties.
- Non-Personally Identifiable Information: Non-Personally Identifiable Information is information that does not identify a specific user. This type of information may include things like the Uniform Resource Locator (“URL”) of the website you visited before coming to the website, the URL of the website you visit after leaving the website, the type of browser you are using, and your Internet Protocol address. We and/or authorized third-party service providers may automatically collect this information when you visit the site through the use of electronic tools like Cookies and Web beacons or Pixel tags, as described below.
We may use Non-Personally Identifiable Information to administer the website, analyze trends, gather demographic information, comply with applicable law, and cooperate with law enforcement activities.
Release of Personally Identifiable Information
We will not will fully share your Personally Identifiable Information with other parties except as provided below:
- We may share your information with Affiliated Businesses: We may jointly provide services or products with other businesses. These are known as “Affiliated Businesses.” We may share your Personally Identifiable Information with an Affiliated Business so that the Affiliated Business and we can provide the requested services to you. For example, we may host a special event with the assistance of a sponsor. If you provide Personally Identifiable Information to register to attend such an event, we will share your Personally Identifiable Information with the sponsor. This sharing of information would allow an Affiliated Business to market directly to you; however, we will only share this information if you engage in an Identification Activity.
- We may share your information with Third-Party Service Providers: We may provide some of our services through third parties. These “Third-Party Service Providers” perform functions on our behalf, like processing credit card payments. We may share your Personally Identifiable Information with such service providers to process credit card payments, send postally or email, or provide customer service. We encourage Third-Party Service Providers to adopt privacy policies, but the privacy policies of such parties govern the use of your Personally Identifiable Information by such parties.
- We may share your information if we undergo business transfers: Like any other business, we could merge with or be acquired by another company. If this occurs, the successor company will acquire the information we maintain, including Personally Identifiable Information. However, Personally Identifiable Information would remain subject to this Privacy Policy.
- We may share your information for our protection and the protection of others: We may also disclose Personally Identifiable Information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law or court order; enforce or apply this Privacy Policy, the Terms & Conditions, or other agreements; or protect the rights, property or safety of the site, its users or others.
Release of Non-Personally Identifiable Information
We may share Non-Personally Identifiable Information with third parties to track and analyze website usage and volume information, administer the website, and improve its quality. We may also publish Non-Personally Identifiable Information for promotional purposes.
User Choices
As discussed above, you can always choose not to provide Personally Identifiable Information, although it may be required to engage in certain activities on the Site.
You can opt out of receiving promotional emails that we may send to advertise our services and/or the services of our affiliates. However, you cannot opt out of “administrative” emails— emails that relate to your activity on the site, such as a response to your request for technical support. If you do not want us to send you promotional emails, email us or write us at the address found below. Please note that opting out of our promotional emails will only affect future communications.

Automatic Tracking of Non-Personally Identifiable Information
- Cookies: To facilitate and customize your experience with the website, we may store cookies on your computer. A cookie is a small text file stored on your computer for record-keeping purposes that contains information about you. Cookies allow website operators to collect Non-Personally Identifiable Information from you, like which pages you visited and what links you clicked on. Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you may be able to modify your browser settings to decline cookies.
- Other Tracking Devices: We may use other industry-standard technologies like pixel tags and web beacons to track your use of the site. Pixel tags and web beacons are tiny graphic images placed on certain pages on the website or in our emails that allow us to determine whether you have performed a specific action. When you access these pages or open or click an email, pixel tags and web beacons generate a Non-Personally Identifiable notice of that action. Pixel tags allow website operators to measure and improve their understanding of visitor traffic and behavior and give them away to measure promotions and performance.
