Web Privacy  

Your privacy when using Global Media Innovative Funds Sites is of utmost importance to Us. This Section describes Global Media Innovative Funds policy concerning the gathering and sharing of Users’ information through the Sites. 

What information does Global Media Innovative Funds collect? 

Anonymous website usage 

In general, you can browse the Sites without telling us who you are or revealing any personal information about yourself. We gather general browsing data from standard server logs.  These include your IP (Internet Protocol) address, domain name, browser type, operating system, and information such as the website that referred you to us, the files you downloaded, the pages you visit, and the dates/times of those visits. 

Collection of personally identifiable information 

When accessing the Sites, you may be asked to provide personal information. This information is collected only with your knowledge and permission and is kept in various Global Media Innovative Funds databases.  

For example, if you register for a newsletter, log on to certain Global Media Innovative Funds Sites, request information, provide feedback, apply for a job, join a discussion group, or join an electronic mailing list, you will be required to provide personal information such as your name, postal address and e-mail address.  If you are making a donation, you may be asked to provide your credit card details. If you are applying to a job, you will be asked to provide information about your past employment and academic background, among others.  

Certain Sites with specific requirements to collect personal information may include a privacy policy specific to that Site.  In these cases, the Site-specific policies will be complementary to this general Global Media Innovative Funds privacy policy and will give additional details on the privacy and use of personal information. 

Joining electronic discussion groups may mean that other participants of the discussion group (including non employees) will see personal information that you have volunteered.  For open discussion groups, this information will be public. 

Use of cookies 

A cookie is a piece of data stored on the User's hard drive containing information about the User. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on the Sites. 

By setting a cookie, Global Media Innovative Funds will remember you the next time you visit the Sites and, therefore, Global Media Innovative Funds will not have to ask questions that you have already answered. 

You are always free to decline our cookies if your browser permits it, although in that case, you may not be able to use certain Site Features and may be required to re-enter information more frequently to use certain services on the Sites.
