Welcome to our site ("Site"). Ogilvy & Mather
Worldwide ("Ogilvy") knows how our clients and visitors
like you value your privacy, and we have created this privacy
policy to ensure that you understand our policies and procedures,
what personal information you must provide if you wish to use
the Site and, ultimately, just how we use such personal information.
Information Collected By Ogilvy
Ogilvy may collect and store personally identifiable information
about persons who visit this Site and voluntarily submit information
in contacting Ogilvy. Ogilvy may also collect and store aggregate
or anonymous information about user contact with and use of the
Site. Information obtained in connection with the Site may be
intermingled with and used by us in conjunction with information
obtained through sources other than the Site, including both offline
and online sources.
How We Use Your Personal Information
Ogilvy may use the personal information we collect to contact
you about our products and services or those of our clients or
other third parties from time to time. In general, we do not sell
your personally identifiable information to third parties or mass
marketers. For example, we will not sell another company your
name or email address. Unless you consent to the disclosure of
your personally identifiable information, only we and our clients,
respective affiliates, technical consultants, third party auditors
and other third parties who make our Site available, enhance its
functionality, or provide associated services have access to this
information, and we require them to agree that they are covered
by this policy. Please note that we do reserve the right to transfer
your personally identifiable information and other information
to our successors in business and purchasers of site assets.
Non-Personal Data
In some cases, we may collect non-personal information. Examples
of this type of information include the type of internet browser
you are using, the type of computer operating system application
software and peripherals you are using and the domain name of
the web site from which you linked to our Site. We use your information
on an aggregated basis to do such things as operate our site,
enhance our site and sell and deliver advertising. We may share
non-personal information with third parties for advertising, promotional
and/or other purposes.
Cookies
We reserve the right to utilize cookie technology. A cookie is
a small data file that certain web sites write to your hard drive
when you visit them. A cookie file can contain various types of
information, including a user ID that the site uses to track the
pages you have visited. We may use cookies to enhance your experience
on this Site, to determine user traffic patterns and for other
purposes.
Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies; however,
you can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or indicate when
a cookie is being sent or you can flush your browser of cookies
from time to time. (Note: you may need to consult the help area
of your browser application for instructions.) If you choose to
disable your cookies setting or refuse to accept a cookie, however,
you will not be able to access the Site with the use of your password.
At times, some of our advertisers and their ad service providers
set cookies when you click their advertising banners. While we
use cookies in other parts of the Site (as discussed above), cookies
received with banner ads are collected by those advertisers and
their ad service providers. The advertiser’s privacy policy
and/or that of its service provider will govern the use of this
information and Ogilvy is not responsible for the privacy practices
of such advertiser or ad service provider.
Clickstream
As you use the Internet, a trail of electronic information is
left at each web site you visit. This information, which is sometimes
referred to as "clickstream data," can be collected
and stored by a web site's server. Clickstream data can tell us
the type of computer and browsing software you use and the address
of the web site from which you linked to the Site. We may collect
and use clickstream data as a form of aggregate information to
anonymously determine how much time visitors spend on each page
of our Site, how visitors navigate throughout the Site and how
we may tailor our web pages to better meet the needs of visitors.
This information will be used to improve our Site and our services.
Any collection or use of clickstream data will be anonymous and
aggregate, and will not intentionally contain any personal information.
Opt Out Procedures
You have the option to opt out of receiving information from
Ogilvy. This opt out messaging will appear at the bottom of every
email that is sent out. Ogilvy also gives you the option to remove
your information from its database completely. If you no longer
wish to take advantage of this Site or to receive any form of
direct contact from Ogilvy, whether it is email, discounts, newsletters,
or other promotional offers or materials, or wish us to delete
your personal information from our data records, send us a request
marked "Privacy-Urgent", address as follows: webmaster@ogilvy.com.
Ogilvy is not responsible for removing information from third-party
lists or databases of any kind.
Please note that we reserve the right to keep any personal or
non-personal information submitted or collected until you delete
or modify it or until we choose, for business reasons such as
obsolescence, to delete it.
Reviewing or changing your information
In order to ensure that the information we maintain is accurate,
Ogilvy gives users the option to change or modify their information
previously provided. If you would like to change your information
currently in our database, please contact us at webmaster@ogilvy.com.
Ogilvy is not responsible for updating information contained
in third-party lists or databases.
Security
We are committed to taking reasonable steps to ensure the security
of your information. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain
data accuracy, and ensure the appropriate use of information,
we have put into place physical, electronic, and managerial procedures
to help safeguard and secure the information we collect online.
However, due to the inherent open nature of the Internet, we cannot
guarantee that communications between you and us or information
stored on the Site or our servers, will be completely free from
unauthorized access by third parties such as hackers and your
use of the Site demonstrates your assumption of this risk.
Protection for Children
This Site is not intended for users under the age of 13, and
we have no intention of collecting personally identifiable information
from children (i.e., individuals under the age of 13). Where appropriate,
we take reasonable measures to inform children not to submit such
information to our site or in response to advertisements. If a
child has provided us with personally identifiable information,
that child's parent or guardian should send us a request marked
"Privacy – Urgent" to webmaster@ogilvy.com if
they would like the information submitted by the child deleted
from our database. We will use all reasonable efforts to delete
such information from our database.
Privacy Precaution Warning
Please note that no data transmission over the Internet is 100%
secure. As a result, we cannot guarantee the security of the information
that you transmit via our online services.
Please note that we reserve the right to access and/or disclose
personal information and non-personal information we gather as
required by courts or administrative agencies and to the extent
required to permit us to investigate suspected fraud, harassment
or other violations of any law, rule or regulation, the Site rules
or policies, or the rights of third parties or to investigate
any suspected conduct which Ogilvy deems improper.
Your Consent
You may have certain rights under the Communications Act, Federal
Trade Commission Act, and other state and federal statutes that
may apply, and by accepting these terms and using this Site, you
are waiving all of these rights as to collection, use, disclosure
and storage of your personally identifiable and non-personal information
as described above.
By using the Site, you also authorize the export of personal
information to the USA and its storage and use as specified above
when you provide such information to us. Our headquarters is in
the USA in New York City. This policy and our legal obligations
are subject to the laws of New York and the USA, regardless of
the location of any user. Any claims or complaints must be filed
in the USA in the State of New York.
We may amend our privacy policy, but if we decide to change our
privacy policy, we will post those changes on this page, so you
are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it
and under what circumstances we may disclose it. Any changes will
only apply to information collected after the change is posted.
