Your privacy is very important to us. At PMT Seminars we have a few fundamental principles that we follow:
- We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it. (We can’t stand services that ask you for things like your gender or income level for no apparent reason.)
- We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
- We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the on-going operation of our site.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, PMT Seminars collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. PMT Seminars’ purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how PMT Seminars’ visitors use its website. From time to time, PMT Seminars may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
PMT Seminars also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on our blogs. PMT Seminars only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.
What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Certain visitors to PMT Seminars’ website choose to interact with PMT Seminars in ways that require PMT Seminars to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that PMT Seminars gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who comment on our blog to provide a username and email address. Those who wish to receive PMT Seminars’ updates via email, we collect their emails. In each case, PMT Seminars collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with PMT Seminars. PMT Seminars does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
Here are some specifics:
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Who we share your data with
We do not sell or share your data with anyone. If we are approached to use our mailing list, the vendor provides the content to us and we send it. They don’t have access to your information. The only exception to this is if the content is embedded on our site (see below). And this also includes ads (see below).
More details:
PMT Seminars discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on PMT Seminars’ behalf or to provide services , and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using this websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. PMT Seminars will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, PMT Seminars discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when PMT Seminars believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of PMT Seminars, third parties or the public at large. If you have supplied your email address, PMT Seminars may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with PMT Seminars and our products. We primarily use our various product blogs to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. PMT Seminars takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Ads
Ads appearing on any of our websites may be delivered to users by advertising partners, who may set cookies. These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by PMT Seminars and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.
Comments
Comments and other content submitted to the anti-spam service are not saved on our servers unless they were marked as false positives, in which case we store them long enough to use them to improve the service to avoid future false positives.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Contact us to change your information.

power to prevent data theft, unauthorized access, and disclosure by implementing the latest
technologies and software, which help us safeguard all the information we collect online
