Personal Data Protection

Elite Training is committed to user privacy.

Although you can browse through the website without giving any information about yourself, personal information is required in order to provide the e-services you request.

The website provides links to third party sites. Since we do not control them, we encourage you to review their privacy policies.

Elite Training respects the privacy of its members and visitors to the ETCoaching Service Web site. Any and all information collected while on the ETCoaching Service Web site is used solely for the purposes as set forth in this privacy statement. Elite Training's Web server automatically recognizes only the visitor's domain name and IP address, and will only recognize additional information if that information has been provided to Elite Training by the member or visitor. All personal information collected through the Web site is provided on a voluntary basis by ETCoaching Service Web site visitors through a visible means of data entry or collection.

One of the main objectives of ETCoaching Service's Web site, however, is to encourage networking and participation in interactive events by ETCoaching platform members and site visitors. To support this networking and interaction, Elite Training may require that visitors provide information to access certain areas of its Web site. This information may include name, email and postal addresses, phone numbers, and other demographic information. Areas of our Web site requiring this information generally include any interactive area, such as forum and chat discussions, surveys, on-site registrations and applications. Visitors provide this information on a voluntary basis to gain access to these areas. Elite Training may also collect aggregate information on which pages visitors access as they use our site as well as the email addresses with visitors who correspond with us directly from the Web site.

Information about members will be stored in the general Elite Training membership database. Elite Training may use email or postal addresses for notifying members about upcoming online events, new additions to the ETCoaching Service Web site, or other services offered by Elite Training.

Elite Training will use the aggregate data we collect to perform statistical analysis of the collective characteristics and behaviour of our members and visitors, to measure overall member demographics, and to analyze how and where to use our resources. We may also use the aggregate data collected to inform our advertisers and sponsors with an aggregate customer profile of who is visiting the Web site and the number of customers who have seen and "clicked" on their advertisements.

In our chat rooms and threaded discussions, we do collect all logins and dialogue. Dialogue in chat sessions may be archived for later retrieval by any ETCoaching Service Web site visitor. Personal information, personal references, and obvious grammatical errors will be removed from the chat transcripts before they are archived. Otherwise, Elite Training does not edit any dialogue provided through chat or threaded discussion participation.

Elite Training, however, cannot control the acts of its members or visitors, who use the chat feature, or other interactive areas of the site. If personal information, such as name, email addresses, mailing addresses, and phone numbers, are provided through these modules, they may be used by other parties outside of Elite Training for unsolicited e-mail or other contact.

If you feel that Elite Training has violated this Privacy Statement in any way, please contact us at CustomerSupport@etcoaching.eu so that we may address the issue.

As a data subject you also have the right to object to the processing of your personal data on legitimate compelling grounds except when it is collected in order to comply with a legal obligation, or is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, or is to be used for a purpose for which you have given your unambiguous consent;

How do we treat e-mails you send us?

The website has a "Contact" button, which activates your e-mail software and invites you to send your comments to a specific functional mailbox.

When you send such a message, your personal data is collected only to the extent necessary to reply. If the management team of the mailbox is unable to answer your question, it will forward your e-mail to another service. You will be informed, via e-mail, about which service your question has been forwarded to.

If you have any questions about the processing of your e-mail and related personal data, do not hesitate to include them in your message.
