Information Collection and Use

Klemz Counseling and Consulting is the sole owner of the information collected on the Site.
Klemz Counseling and Consulting only collects personally identifiable information that users provide to us. The information is normally gathered through surveys, newsletter registration procedures, or other services we offer to users.

In addition to personally identifiable information, we collect anonymous information such as Site traffic performance, which includes geographic and demographic information. We may share this information and other aggregated demographic information with our partners and sponsors. Such information is not linked to any personally identifiable information.

We use third-party vendors to provide services on the Site, such as sending email messages to subscribers. Information that you voluntarily submit on the Site may be provided to our vendors so that we may send Klemz Counseling and Consulting communications to you. We may share your email address with our partners to offer you programs and services we are jointly promoting. You may opt out of these communications at any time through the procedures described below.

If the Site or communications from Klemz Counseling and Consulting include links to third-party websites and you submit personal information to such third-party website, your personal information will be subject to the privacy policies and practices of such third-party website.

We may release your information, including personally identifiable information, if a subpoena, order, or demand from a governmental agency or court requires us to do so. We may also release your information if Klemz Counseling and Consulting, in its sole discretion, determines that such release may assist in protecting the health, safety, or welfare of another. However, Klemz Counseling and Consulting has no obligation to exercise such discretion.
