Privacy Policy
We at The Bryant Group (referred to as "The Bryant Group", "We", "Us”, or "Our") recognize the importance of protecting the privacy of certain information collected about the users and visitors (referred to as "User," "You" or "Your") of Our web site. This Privacy Policy discloses what information We gather, how We use it, and how to correct or change it. At The Bryant Group, it is Our intention to give You an understanding about how We collect Your information and the use We make of it in the course of Our business.
To that end, The Bryant Group gathers two types of information about You: 1. data that Users provide through optional, voluntary registration on Our web site, and 2. data that The Bryant Group gathers through aggregated tracking, mainly by tallying web pages that are viewed by Users throughout Our web site.
However, be assured that The Bryant Group will not disclose any personal information to third parties without Your consent.
How Does The Bryant Group Collect Information
Optional Registration
We collect information by specifically requesting it from You. Generally this occurs when You register at Our web site or request information and/or a service. We use Your information to operate Our web site and to deliver services to You. The Bryant Group also uses Your information to inform You about other services available from The Bryant Group.
Internet Protocol (IP) Address
An IP address is a unique number that is automatically assigned to Your computer whenever You are surfing the internet so that Your computer can be identified by the main computers, known as "Web Servers,” which “serve up" web pages. This allows Us to identify and gather general information and data about You, such as the web pages You view while on Our web site.
The Bryant Group collects IP addresses for the purposes of helping Us diagnose problems with Our main computers, for system administration to report aggregated information to Our business partners, and to audit the use of Our web site. When Users request web pages from Our web site, Our web servers log the User's IP address. We do not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable, which means that a User's session will be logged, but the User will remain anonymous to Us. For example, We collect and/or track the home server domain name, the type of computer, and the type of web browser used by You to access Our web site. Such collection and tracking information is gathered by Us as You navigate through Our web site, and shall be used by Us for Our business purposes only.
We can, and will, use IP addresses to identify You when We feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with Our web site Terms of Use or to protect Our service, site, Users, or others.
Use of Cookies
What are cookies? Cookies are small pieces of information that a web site sends to Your computer for record-keeping purposes, which information is stored in a file on Your computer's hard drive. Cookies make web surfing easier for You by saving Your preferences so that We can use the saved information to facilitate Your use of Our web site when You return to the web site. Cookies do not tell Us Your individual identity unless You have chosen to provide it to Us. We never save passwords or credit card information in cookies. The use of cookies is an industry standard, and as such, You will find that most major web sites use them.
By showing how and when Users use Our web site, cookies help Us see which areas of the web site are popular and which are not. Many improvements and updates to the web site are based on such data as total number of visitors and pages viewed. This information is most easily tracked with cookies.
Most cookies expire after a defined period of time, or You can delete Your cookie file at any time. Most web browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can reset Your web browser to refuse cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, note that some parts of Our web site may not function properly or may be considerably slower if You refuse cookies. For example, without cookies, You will not be able to set personalized preferences.
The Bryant Group has two primary uses for cookies. First, We use them to specify a User's preferences. Second, We use cookies to track web site usage trends and patterns. This helps Us understand Our Users' needs better and improve areas of Our web site. While both of these activities depend on the use of cookies, You have the option of disabling (refusing) the cookies via Your web browser preferences.
How Can You Control The Usage Of Information
In case You change Your mind or some personal information changes (such as Your zip code or e-mail address), We will try to provide a way to correct, update or remove the personal information that You give Us. We also give You the opportunity to control the communications We direct to You. If a User wishes to update personal information or objects to any usage provided herein for any reason, he/she may e-mail the requested change to: Info@The-Bryant-Group.com .
What Happens When You Link To A Third Party Site
You should be aware that when You are on The Bryant Group web site You can hyperlink, or be directed to, other web sites that are beyond Our control and/or outside Our service. For example, if You "click" on an informational link, the "click" may transfer You off Our web site. These other web sites may send their own cookies to Users, collect data, and/or solicit information.
The Bryant Group does not control such web sites, and, therefore, are not responsible for their contents or the hyperlinks or advertising they choose to place on such web sites. The Bryant Group inclusion of hyperlinks to these web sites does not imply any endorsement of the material on such web sites or any association with their operators. Our Privacy Policy does not extend to anything that is inherent in the operation of the Internet, which is beyond The Bryant Group control.
Please keep in mind that whenever You give out information on-line (for example, via message boards or forums) that information can be collected and used by people You do not know. While The Bryant Group strives to protect Users' information and privacy, We cannot guarantee the security of any information You disclose on-line, and You disclose such information at Your own risk.
Is Information Secure From Others Using The Bryant Group Web Site
The security of all information associated with Our Users is an important concern to Us. We exercise care in providing secure transmission of Your information from Your computer to Our servers. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while We strive to protect Your information, The Bryant Group can't ensure or warrant the security of any information You transmit to Us or from Our on-line services, and You do so at Your own risk. Once We receive Your transmission, The Bryant Group uses industry standard efforts to safeguard the confidentiality of Your information, such as firewalls and Secure Socket Layers (SSL). However, "perfect security" does not exist on the Internet.
