GISBeX WEBSITE PRIVACY STATEMENT
The Global Internet Stock Brokerage Exchange is committed to protecting your privacy. Please read this document to learn how we protect your privacy when you visit our site. Please direct your questions, comments or concerns in this matter to the Webmaster.
At GISBeX, your privacy matters to us. Our site is designed to give you as much control as possible over the privacy of your personal information - when we can collect it, how we can use it and whether we can share it with others.
Your "personal information" is any information that can identify you as an individual beyond your name, business title(s), business phone number(s) and business address(es).
What personal information do we collect?

Anonymous tracking and profiling
GISBeX assigns a random number to each site visitor to anonymously track content preferences and traffic patterns. The random numbers let us keep track of how many times customers are doing specific things – like visiting our site each month – without knowing who our customers are.
The random number we assign to you is kept in a file on your computer called a "cookie". By themselves, cookies cannot be used to determine your identity. Unless you specifically give us your personal information, GISBeX will never know who you are.

Our standard research practices also include the use of "referrers" and "environment variables".

We use tracking information to determine which areas of our site visitors like and don’t like based on traffic to those areas. GISBeX does not track what individual visitors read, but, rather, how well each page performs overall. This helps us to continue to build a better service for you. We also perform ad-hoc analysis of some/all of the data collected to determine if the sites (and their products and services) are performing to expectations and to gauge the value of any new products or services that may be offered in the future.
Our research database does not store personally identifiable information, such as name, address, phone number or e-mail address. Nor does it store sensitive data, like medical or financial information, or any information about sexual preference, race, religion or ethnicity.
Your personal information is kept in a secure system protected by firewalls and other IT safeguards. It is not accessible through Internet or other web-based connections.
Only those staff members who need to know your personal information to serve you are granted access to it.
We receive many e-mail communications. We do not sell the names or e-mail addresses of individuals who communicate with us through e-mail. We also do not send emails to any of our clients for any reason unless they have specifically requested we do so. If you ever receive an unsolicited email from a member site or from GISBeX or persons claiming to be either of the two, please let us know by sending an email to abuse@gisbex.com
This site contains links to other sites whose privacy policies may differ from GISBeX’s privacy statement. Please check the privacy policies of those sites before proceeding.
Our web site uses a Feedback Form for customers to let us know what they think of our site and our services. We collect contact information (including e-mail addresses). The contact information is only used to respond to inquiries. Feedback submissions can also be made anonymously.
A "cookie" is an element of data that a web site can send to your browser, which may then store it on your computer system. It can be used to provide you with tailored information from the web site you have visited. Our web site uses cookies in two ways:
Referrers and environmental variables
A "referrer" is the information passed along by a web browser that references the Web URL you linked from. It is automatically gathered by our web server. This information is used by GISBeX to identify broad demographic trends and may be used to provide information tailored to your interests.
"Environment variables" we gather include time, type of web browser being used and the operating system/platform. This information is used only for acquiring a better understanding of service usage and to plan site maintenance schedules.
