This
statement sets out PA’s privacy policy for the use and holding of
personal information that is provided to PA by you.
What
information do we gather?
The
type of client/visitor information PA collects generally includes a
name, work address, telephone numbers, e-mail address and any other
relevant contact details. We may also collect information about the
use of our products and services, any preferences that we are told
about, or information that is submitted voluntarily to us, such as
requests for further information in a specific area of interest, an
on-line survey or registration for a conference or event.

or cookies. This occurs automatically when you access paconsulting.com.
This information is used to enhance your visit to our site. It does
not personally identify you and we do not collect sensitive
information, such as your political or religious beliefs, ethnic
background or sexual preference.
Why
does PA collect this information and how do we use it?
The personal information that is provided by or obtained from you
is used and/or held by us for maintaining our records and in order
that we can communicate with you in the manner requested by you in
accordance with this policy. PA collects this information to provide
clients / visitors with a specific service. For example, we may use
the information provided to us to send relevant updates of topics that
may be of interest. PA also uses the information to respond to
information requests.
As a
global organization, PA may develop aggregate anonymized (ie, not
individual) reports which incorporate some of the information provided
by clients/visitors. The reports are for the use of our business for
research purposes only. Such reports will not include any personally
identifiable information.
By
providing personal information through this site you are indicating
your consent to our obtaining personal information from you and to the
holding and use of the personal information that is provided by or
obtained from you in accordance with this policy.
If, at

your profile' below.
Disclosure
of personal information
PA will
not sell, rent, trade or otherwise supply to third parties any

We will
not disclose any personal information provided unless you have
authorized us to so do, or if we are required to do so by law. Please
note that if at any time PA is required by law to release information
about you or your organization, PA will cooperate fully with the
relevant authorities.
Keeping
your personal information secure
PA has
security measures designed to protect against the loss, misuse and/or
alteration of the information under its control. These include:
a) Secure computer storage facilities.
b) Encryption of your information whilst it travels between your
computer and our servers. PA uses Secure Socket Layer encryption.
c) Firewalls. PA has its own firewalls to provide security. These
are designed to prevent others from accessing confidential data or
accessing PA’s internal networks that store client/visitor data.
d) The conducting of quarterly third-party security audits.
