Privacy Policy
This site is owned and operated by Sterling Asset Managment Ltd. Your privacy on the Internet is of the utmost importance to us. At Sterling Asset Managment Ltd., we want to make your experience online satisfying and safe.
Because we gather certain types of information about our users, we feel that you should fully understand our policy and the terms and conditions surrounding the capture and use of that information. This privacy statement discloses what information we gather and how we use it.
Information Sterling Asset Managment Ltd. gathers and tracks.
Sterling Asset Managment Ltd. gathers two types of information about users:
- Information that users provide through optional, voluntary submissions. These are voluntary submissions to receive our electronic newsletters, to email a friend, and from participation in polls and surveys
- Information Sterling Asset Managment Ltd. 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. Compiling such aggregated demographic data is essential to keeping our service up to date for our users. Under no circumstances does Sterling Asset Managment Ltd. divulge any information about an individual user to a third party.
Sterling Asset Managment Ltd. gathers user information in the following processes:
Optional Voluntary Information
We offer the following free services, which require some type of voluntary submission of personal information by users:
1. Electronic newsletters policy (Dispatches)
We will offer a free electronic newsletter to users. Sterling Asset Managment Ltd. gathers the email addresses of users who voluntarily subscribe. 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 to the newsletters at the time of registration.
2. Tell a Friend policy
Our site users can choose to electronically forward our site address to someone else by clicking "Tell a Friend". The user must provide their email address, as well as that of the recipient. This information is used only in the case of transmission errors and, of course, to let the recipient know who sent the email. The information is not used for any other purpose.
3. Polling
From time to time we may offer interactive polls to users so they can easily share their opinions with other users and see what our audience thinks about important issues. Opinions or other responses to polls are aggregated and are not identifiable to any particular user. COMPANY NAME may use a system to "tag" users after they have voted, so they can vote only once on a particular question. This tag is not correlated with information about individual users.
4. Surveys
Sterling Asset Managment Ltd. 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
Sterling Asset Managment Ltd. tracks user traffic patterns throughout all of our sites. However, we do not correlate this information with data about individual users. Sterling Asset Managment Ltd. 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). 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
