Cookies and Log Files 
 

Cookies may be used on some pages of our site. "Cookies" are small text files placed on your hard drive that assist us in providing a more customised website experience. For example, a cookie can be used to store registration information in an area of the site so that a user does not need to re-enter it on subsequent visits to that area. It is Comply Exchange's policy to use cookies to make navigation of our websites easier for visitors and to facilitate efficient registration procedures. Site statistics are compiled by third parties, and therefore your IP address will be passed to third parties for statistical reporting only.
 

If you are concerned about cookies, most browsers permit individuals to decline cookies. In most cases, a visitor may refuse a cookie and still fully navigate our websites, however other functionality in the site may be impaired. After termination of the visit to our site, you can always delete the cookie from your system.

In order to properly manage our website we may anonymously log information on our operational systems, and identify categories of visitors by items such as domains and browser types. These statistics are reported in the aggregate to our webmasters. This is to ensure that our website presents the best web experience for visitors and is an effective information resource.

It is Comply Exchange's policy only to disclose information to third parties under the following circumstances:
 

• As required by law through subpoena, search warrant or other legal process

• When explicitly requested by a visitor

• When required to deliver publications or reference materials requested by a visitor

• When required to facilitate conferences or events hosted by a third party

Comply Exchange's policy is to disclose information to third parties upon visitors submitting their requests (e.g., when ordering a publication, we display the party fulfilling the order).

Comply Exchange websites do not collect or compile personally identifying information for dissemination or sale to outside parties for consumer marketing purposes, or host mailings on behalf of third parties.

​

Third Party Links
 

There are several places throughout the Comply Exchange website  that may link to other websites that do not operate under Comply Exchange's privacy practices. When you link to other websites, the Comply Exchange privacy policy no longer apply. We encourage visitors to review each site's privacy policy before disclosing any personally identifiable information.

 

Data Retention 
 

Contact information about visitors (such as information generated though registration for access to areas on the site) will be kept as long as the information is required to completely service the contact request or until a user requests that we delete that information. Mailing list information, discussion posts and email are kept for only the period of time considered reasonable to facilitate the visitor's requests.

​

User ID and Passwords 
 

Visitors may be required to register to gain access to areas of the  Comply Exchange website, for example to gain access to our  demonstration area. In these cases we may require visitors to register in order to obtain a user-id and password for authentication and secure access to the transaction or business confidential or proprietary information services.

​

Personally identifiable information provided to Comply Exchange through its website is provided voluntarily by visitors. Should visitors subsequently choose to unsubscribe from mailing lists or any site registrations, we will provide instructions on the appropriate website area or in communications to our visitors; or a visitor may contact the webmaster of the appropriate site by emailing the support desk at: support@complyexchange.com
