Privacy Policy
Protecting your personal information is important to us. This privacy policy describes how we protect your privacy.
Focusednetworking.com believes that your privacy is a serious matter. We do not share your personal information with any other organizations or individuals. We keep all information you provide to us, no matter how or why you provide it (e.g. subscribe to newsletter, request our services, etc.) completely confidential.
What is personal information?
It is information about you that is personally identifiable like your name, address, email address, phone number, or credit card number, and that is not otherwise publicly available.
You will be asked to provide personal information when communicating with focusednetworking.com.
For example, when you subscribe to our newsletter service or sign up for a networking group. Or when you order a product or a service and give your name, e-mail address, phone number, delivery address, credit or debit card number and expiry date so that the order can be processed and your products or services delivered to you. If you follow up with us on an order or request other business information, we will always ask you for proof of identity before disclosing any of your personal information to you.
We may use personal information collected about you to personalize your visits to the web site and recommend goods or services to you.
We also use the information collected as feedback to continuously improve the design, layout and content of the website.
Only our employees with relevant business responsibilities have access to personal information and that access is only so they may perform their duties. We believe that a violation of our privacy policy is a just cause for dismissal and will act accordingly.
Unless required to do so by law, we do NOT provide any information about our subscribers, our customers or our affiliates to any third party.
However we may provide aggregate statistics (i.e. ‘grouped data’) about our sales, traffic, customers and other information to third parties. If we provide this group information, the data will not include any information that could personally identify you.
We do provide the information to trusted associates (e.g. consultants) who work on behalf of, or with, focusednetworking.com under confidentiality agreements. However, these companies do not have any independent right to share this confidential information.
This privacy policy applies to focusednetworking.com only and not to any organizations, individuals, or websites to which this website is linked (incoming or outgoing links). Please ensure that you refer to external sites visited to review their privacy policies.
Your use of this website implies your consent to our collecting and using personal information about you as specified in our Privacy Policy.
Privacy Policy Information on the Use of Cookies and Web Beacons

They may be used in association with cookies to understand how visitors interact with the pages and content on the pages of a web site.
The content on this site is free to visitors. How can we afford to publish free content? By using Internet advertising.
