This Privacy Notice sets out the data processing practices carried out through the use of the Internet and any other electronic communications networks by PCE.

Data Collection and Intended Use

In our website, we collect two (2) types of data about users:

1. active data (such as name, e-mail address, password, etc.) when voluntarily submitted by visitors for registration, contests, etc.; and

2. passive data (such as browser type, IP address, page reference, etc.)

From time to time, we may ask our site visitors to answer survey questions. Surveys generally deal with the site, our events and other issues related to but not limited to entrepreneurship and enterprise management. We may ask for age or age ranges, gender, and other non-personally identifiable data. No personally identifiable data is requested and the data collected is not tied to any personally identifiable data that may have been previously provided. Data gathered from polls and surveys are only for internal use by PCE, but aggregate data may be shared with others.

When you register with us, we will require you to fully accomplish a registration form which would contain numerous details about you.

None of the information gathered by our system is directly connected with you as an individual. Information that we are able to gather in this manner is used to improve our website by monitoring its performance and evaluating how improvements can be done.

We might from time to time ask Site visitors personal information. An instance is when a visitor asks an inquiry/request for information that requires a response. Information may range from a postal code to an email address to a phone number or such other identification information that we deem necessary or desirable.

PCE does not gather personal information from anyone unless voluntarily provided by the individual. We do not sell names and addresses of our site visitors to other organizations or companies.
