   You may have the right to have your data suppressed from public sources, for example by using a ‘Do not call’ or ‘Do not email’ registry. See section 8 below.

2.5 Non-personal information: When you interact with our platforms, we may collect non-personal information. The limitations and requirements of this Privacy Policy on our collection, use, disclosure, transfer and storage/retention of personal information do not apply to non-personal information.

Precision Intel understands that your trust in us depends on how well we manage data and keep our information and systems secure. Precision Intel conforms to industry-accepted security practices and takes reasonable steps to protect your personal information from misuse, interference and loss, as well as unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.

We use a number of physical, administrative, personnel and technical measures to protect your personal information in accordance with our own security controls. However, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information.

Session cookies only exist while your internet browser is open and are automatically deleted once you close your browser.

2. (b)

   Web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs) are small electronic files contained on pages of websites that permit companies to count users who have visited certain webpages on a website and are used for other related website statistics (e.g., recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity).
