If you are dissatisfied with the Site, your only recourse is to disconnect from the Site and to refrain from visiting the Site in the future.

This Privacy Policy applies to the Site only. Since the Site contains links to other websites (“External Links”) not protected under this Privacy Policy, once you click on an External Link, whether through an advertisement, content link, or any other means, you will no longer be on this Site and will no longer be protected under this Privacy Policy. STRADS Consulting is not responsible for the privacy practices of the other sites to which we link, so we encourage you to carefully read and fully understand the privacy terms of every website you visit through an External Link contained on the Site. Additionally, if and only if, you give your explicit and direct consent, STRADS Consulting may share information among websites with which we partner, but we will never do so without your prior permission.

For Alumni that are members of this site, registration is required to use the site and the information displayed in your listing is controlled by you. For visitors to the site, the only information we will collect will be Non-Personal Information (as defined below) such as through the use of Cookies and/or Advertising Trackers (as such terms are defined below).

If you are located within the European Union, you should note that your information will be transferred to the United States of America, which is deemed by the European Union to have inadequate data protection.

CHILDREN’S PRIVACY (COPPA)

The Site does not cater to children under the age of 13, and we are deeply committed to protecting the privacy of children. Should a child whom we know to be under the age of 13 send personal information to us, we will use that information only to respond directly to that child to inform him or her that we must have parental consent before receiving his or her personal information. Neither STRADS Consulting nor any of its affiliates nor services are designed or intended to attract children under the age of 13. Should a person under the age of 13 require the use of the Site, we encourage that child’s parent or legal guardian to establish an account to be used by such parent or legal guardian on behalf of such minor, and it becomes that parent’s or guardian’s responsibility to monitor the use of such an account. The parent or guardian is also responsible for maintaining the accuracy of any information so submitted. Furthermore, any information that STRADS Consulting or any of our affiliates provides is directed at the parent or guardian, whom we hold responsible for interpreting and using that information. We take no responsibility for a child who knowingly falsifies his or her information in order to obtain information from us or from any of our Provider’s or other partner’s websites.
