Privacy Statement
Protecting the individual's privacy on the Internet is crucial to the future of Internet-based business and the move toward a true Internet economy. We have created this Privacy Statement to demonstrate our firm commitment to the individual's right to data protection and privacy. This Privacy Statement outlines how we handle information that can be used to directly or indirectly identify an individual ("Personal Data").

In these cases, it will unfortunately not be possible for ANSELM to provide you with what you request without the relevant Personal Data.
Data subjects' rights. You can request from ANSELM at any time information about which Personal Data ANSELM processes about you and the correction or deletion of such Personal Data. Please note, however, that ANSELM can delete your Personal Data only if there is no statutory obligation or prevailing right of ANSELM to retain it. Kindly note that if you request that ANSELM delete your Personal Data, you will not be able to continue to use any ANSELM service that requires ANSELM's use of your Personal Data.
If ANSELM uses your Personal Data based on your consent or to perform a contract with you, you may further request from ANSELM a copy of the Personal Data that you have provided to ANSELM. In this case, please contact the email address below and specify the information or processing activities to which your request relates, the format in which you would like this information, and whether the Personal Data is to be sent to you or another recipient. ANSELM will carefully consider your request and discuss with you how it can best fulfill it.

In the following cases, ANSELM is permitted to process your Personal Data under the applicable data protection law.

This may include taking the necessary steps prior to entering into the contract, responding to your related inquiries, and providing you with shipping and billing information and to process or provide customer feedback and support.

Furthermore, we communicate on a regular basis by email with users who subscribe to our services, and we may also communicate by phone to resolve customer complaints or investigate suspicious transactions. We may use your email address to confirm your opening of an account, to send you notice of payments, to send you information about changes to our products and services, and to send notices and other disclosures as required by law.

Within an existing business relationship between you and ANSELM, ANSELM may inform you, where permitted in accordance with local laws, about its products or services (including webinars, seminars or events) which are similar or relate to such products and services you have already purchased or used from ANSELM. Furthermore, where you have attended a webinar, seminar or event of ANSELM or purchased products or services from ANSELM, ANSELM may contact you for feedback regarding the improvement of the relevant webinar, seminar, event, product or service.
Right to object. You may object to ANSELM using Personal Data for the above purposes at any time by contacting privacy@ANSELM.com.
