Privacy Policy
PRIVACY POLICY – GENERAL
Maintaining your information in a secure and confidential manner is mandatory at Clausen & Associates. As privacy is a key priority, we want you to understand what information we collect, how we use it, and how we protect it.
What we collect
We collect only the information we need. What we seek depends on the programs and services you request. Sometimes the information we collect is anonymous. Where we can, we collect information from you directly. Otherwise, we take steps to confirm that partners and others who give us your information have the authority to do so.
How we use your information
We use your information to understand and meet your needs and deliver the programs and services you request. For example, we may use it to send you Clausen & Associates information that may be of interest.
When we share your information
At Clausen & Associates we sometimes work with partners and other organizations to help us deliver the programs and services you request. When we do, we only provide them with the information they need to perform their job.
How we protect your information
We protect your information from unauthorized access and use with appropriate safeguards and security measures. We keep your information as long as needed, or as long as required by law. After that, it is destroyed, erased or made anonymous. Our Principals and Associates are aware of our commitment to your privacy and endeavour to always uphold it. We seek the same commitment from our partners and others with whom we share information.
You can access and update your information
You may request access to your information and provide us with updates at any time. Although we take care to keep your information accurate and up-to-date, please inform us if we need to make changes. In fact, it is in your best interest to do so.
We respect your choices
Our use of your information is dependent upon your consent. You are deemed to have given us your consent when you request our programs and services. However, you have the power to withdraw your consent at any time – simply contact us and let us know.
If you do withdraw consent, it should be noted that this may end some of the programs and services you receive from us.
You may also want to know that this privacy commitment applies to and is followed by all Clausen & Associates Principals, Associates and Employees.
PRIVACY POLICY – EVENTS
Clausen & Associates hosts events to share our knowledge and insights with clients and others. Refer to the Events section of our website for this information.
What we collect
When you request to attend an event, we will request some personal information in order to register you for the event, including but not limited to contact and payment information, event selections and preferences like dietary requirements.
How we use your information
Information is used to process event registrations and administer events. Information is also used for analysis and ongoing event development. Unless you request otherwise, Clausen & Associates retains contact information and other information about your interests, including event selections, to identify upcoming events and other programs and services we believe will interest you. We do not sell our mailing lists.
How we protect your information
From time to time, events are sponsored by, or offered jointly with, business partners and service providers. Please note that forwarding event email communications may generate identifying information about the recipient to Clausen & Associates, although we do not use the information for any purpose.
We respect your choices
When you are invited to register for an event, this is generally because our records indicate you have given us your permission. From time to time, Clausen & Associates may send event invitations to individuals identified through third parties, such as list providers. Where we do, we take steps to confirm this is authorized. Please contact us if you wish to review or update your personal information, remove your name from our mailing lists, or inquire or complain about our privacy practices.

Only authorized personnel have access to personally identifiable information submitted through the website. Such persons are required to maintain the confidentiality of this sensitive data. The policy also applies to any and all agents, affiliates and related entities of Clausen & Associates that may receive such information from Clausen & Associates.
