Hong Kong Education Web


私隱聲明


CourseLocator.com 環球課程網 and Hong Kong Education Web 香港教育資訊網 ("the Services") are web sites located on the Internet at http://www.courselocator.com/ and http://www.education.com.hk/ respectively. The Services is owned and operated by Worldwide Education Limited and Hong Kong Education Web Limited ("the Companies") respectively. By using the Services, you agree to be bound by all of the terms in this agreement:

We are committed to protect your privacy. All the information that the Services gather about you will be used solely to assist you in receiving customized education and learning information and accessing member-only functions and features. Please read carefully the privacy policy as follows:

Information Gather and Usage

Information Gather from Member Registration:

Users who register as the member of the Services will provide personal information through optional, voluntary submissions. These are voluntary submissions to receive our email newsletters, browsing member-only content, submitting inquires and using certain member-only services (such as eCard).

Information Gather from Member-only Service Registration:

Apart from the information gathered from member registration, both the "e-Registration" and "Global Course Matcher" services require users to provide extra information such as contact telephone and addresses, personal identification number, date of birth and basic academic data. The extra information is used for:

  • course/seminar/event enrollment, seat registration and payment process
  • process application requests to education providers

Information Gather from Web Sites Usage Tracking:

User traffic patterns throughout the Services are being tracked. However, we do not correlate this information with data about individual users. The Services also tracks and catalogs the search terms that users enter in our search functions, but this tracking is never associated with individual users. We use tracking information to determine which areas of the Services 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 service for you.

The Services creates aggregate reports on user demographics and traffic patterns for advertisers, sponsors, co-branders and partners. This allows our users to receive advertisements or other promotional messages that are pertinent to their needs. Because we don't track the usage patterns of individual users, an advertiser, sponsor, co-brander or partner will never know that a specific user clicked their ad. We will not disclose any information about any individual user except to comply with applicable law or valid legal process or to protect the personal safety of our users or the public.

Security

The Companies has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the user information under our control. However, it is virtually impossible to guarantee 100% secure data storage or transmission over the Internet using current technologies. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, the Companies cannot and will not ensure or warrant the security of information you transmit to us or from our online services, and you transmit such information at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make every effort to ensure its security on our systems.

Member Account, Password

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your member password and account, and are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your password or account. You agree to immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security. The Companies cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this section.

Correction / Updating Personal Information

If a user's personally identifiable information changes (such as email address), the Services provide a way to update your information - user should login to the Member Page to perform the modifications.

Opt-Out Policy

The Services give users options wherever necessary and practical. Such choices include:

  • Opting not to register as a member.
  • Opting not to receive customized topic InfoPack email newsletters (user will still receive member announcement messages from the Services though).
  • Opting not to subscribe "Global Course Matcher" service

* User should login to the Member Page to perform the above actions.

Your Consent

By using the Services, you consent to the collection and use of this information by the Companies. Our privacy and security policies are periodically reviewed and enhanced as necessary. If we decide to change our policies, we will post those changes on this page so that you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it.
