DETAILED PERSONAL PRIVACY POLICY

Last Updated: January 2004

This policy defines the detailed principles by which iProjects Ltd aims

to conduct itself in respecting EVERY customer's  rights to privacy, 

and the responsible way we gather, use and secure your personal information,

in order to deliver the products, services and information you request from us.

iProjects Ltd has established this Privacy Policy consisting of ten principles, to protect and manage your (our customer’s) personal information.  iProjects Ltd will occasionally update this Privacy Policy.  When it does, iProjects Ltd will also revise the “last update” date at the top of this Privacy Policy.  For changes to this policy, iProjects Ltd will notify you by placing a notice on its web site home page.

1.

Accountability

iProjects Ltd collects, at time of your registration and your sign-on to its web site, certain “personal information” (information that personally identifies you) such as your name, email address, home or work address, telephone number, and your computer hardware and software (e.g. IP address, operating system, browser type, domain name, URL, access times, and referring web site addresses), a listing of which can be found by clicking here.

iProjects Ltd has implemented this Privacy Policy to protect personal information received from its customers, and to respond to any inquiries and complaints.  The Privacy Policy also provides that iProjects Ltd will use appropriate contractual means to establish a comparable level of protection for personal information which is sent for processing by third parties on iProjects Ltd’s behalf .

iProjects Ltd has designated responsibility for your personal information to its Governance Officer, who ensures compliance with the principles in this Privacy Policy.  Other iProjects Ltd individuals may be delegated to act on behalf of the Governance Officer.

3.

Consent for Collection, Use or Disclosure

Registration for iProjects Ltd products and services by a customer will constitute the customer’s consent for iProjects Ltd to collect, use and disclose personal information under this Privacy Policy.  iProjects Ltd will normally seek a customer’s consent for any new uses and disclosures of the customer’s personal information, either at the same time it collects the personal information or after it has been collected but before it is used or disclosed for a new purpose. In certain circumstances however, iProjects Ltd will not be required to inform and obtain the consent of the customer, such as investigation of a breach of an agreement, contravention of laws, an emergency where the life, health or security of an individual is threatened, or the collection of a debt.

A customer may withdraw such consent for collection, use and disclosure at any time, on prior written notice, provided that iProjects Ltd may on such withdrawal suspend or terminate its products and services.

an agent of the customer;

(b)

agents of iProjects Ltd acting on its behalf for the Identified Purposes;

Security Safeguards

iProjects Ltd will use reasonable efforts to protect personal information against loss, unauthorized access, disclosure, misuse or modification, through security safeguards that depend on the level of sensitivity of the information.  Methods of protection include organizational measures (contract provisions, security clearance, limiting access to need-to-know iProjects Ltd personnel), technological measures (passwords, encryption), and physical measures (locked file storage, security card access).  iProjects Ltd will control personal information disclosed to authorized third parties by entering into agreements which contain confidentiality provisions and restrictions on use and which limit the amount of information disclosed to only that which is needed for the Identified Purposes.

Openness of Policy

9.

Access to Personal Information

iProjects Ltd will afford you a reasonable opportunity to review the personal information in your file, in understandable format, either by direct access or upon request to the Governance Officer made by you after providing sufficient identification.

If iProjects Ltd is not able to provide access to some aspect of a customer’s personal information, it will provide reasons for denying access such as; that by doing so would likely reveal personal information about a third party, or that it is confidential commercial information or attorney–client privileged communications, or that the information relates to a breach of an agreement or a contravention of law, or that its disclosure could reasonably be expected to threaten the life or security of another individual.

Customers have the right to request that inaccurate or incomplete information be amended as appropriate, and iProjects Ltd will promptly correct such personal information or provide the means for you to do so directly.

iProjects Ltd will investigate your suggestions and complaints concerning the iProjects Ltd Privacy Policy. If a complaint is found to be justified, iProjects Ltd will take appropriate measures to resolve the complaint including, if necessary, amending its policies and procedures. Each customer will be informed of the outcome of the investigation regarding the customer’s complaint.
