How We Use Your Information

We limit how we use the information you provide to us to ensure you receive the full benefit of your relationship with CISO Global.

We primarily use your information to:

  • Provide the products and services you have requested.
  • Provide you customer service.
  • Provide services such as processing a transaction (e.g., making an inquiry, fulfilling a request for information, or completing a product order).
  • Send marketing materials and communications to you about CISO Global products and services or those of our strategic marketing partners.
  • Perform market research via surveys to better serve your needs and to improve our websites, and our various types of communications, advertising campaigns, and promotional activities, or otherwise, conduct business.
  • We will not sell your personal information.

Also, the data we receive from third-party providers helps us verify the information you have given us or to add demographic or other information to help us better understand your potential needs for additional products or services.

Some of these uses require us to share your information with third parties, including companies whose purpose is to support CISO Global marketing activities, as well as our trusted partners who may provide other services to you. Also, we may share your information (including non-public personal identification information) to ensure our compliance with reporting and other legal requirements or in other manners permitted or required by law, including without limitation to respond to subpoenas, search warrants, court orders, or legal process.

As a CISO Global visitor or customer, you have choices whether we use your information for marketing purposes or whether your non-public personal information is shared with our CISO Global affiliates or those third-party partners. Those choices are described in “The Choices You Have” section below.

Cookies and Clear GIF

We may capture your IP address and place cookies on all website visitor hard drives to collect information on your visits to our site and the pages viewed. We aggregate this information with that of other visitors to analyze website activity to help us improve your online experience. This data is not personally identifiable to you and is used primarily to identify return visitors to the site and understand from what website you came to our site and the site you next visit upon leaving the CISO Global site, including when you link to our partner sites to explore the products and services they provide. Also, when you initially visit cisoglobal.com, a persistent cookie is used to capture your zip code for marketing purposes.

The use of persistent cookies enables us to capture and link to other information you have provided us online once you choose to identify yourself. This capability allows us to view your activity on our site for a specified period to match your interests and needs to the best product and service information available and send it to you. CISO Global also uses clear gif tracking images on some of its pages and in our HTML emails to determine open rates.

You may opt out of cookies at any time by following the instructions on your browser.

Links to Other Sites

CISO Global may partner with reputable companies to provide additional services to you. If you choose to use any of the links, we cater to these member companies, sponsors, and other third-party resources; you will be leaving our website and going to a new website. Protection of your privacy at those other sites will be governed by the privacy policy at that site. We’ve taken special care in selecting our partner companies to try to ensure that they respect your privacy as we do, but please take the time to read the privacy policies at their respective websites.

Security, Intrusion, and Detection

For site security purposes, and to ensure that this service remains available to all users, all network traffic is monitored in order to identify unauthorized attempts to upload or change information or otherwise cause damage or conduct criminal activity. Unauthorized attempts to defeat or circumvent security features, to use the system for other than intended purposes, to deny service to authorized users, to access, obtain, alter, damage, or destroy information, or otherwise to interfere with the system or its operation are prohibited. Evidence of such acts may be disclosed to law enforcement authorities and result in criminal prosecution under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1986 (Pub. L. 99-474) and the National Information Infrastructure Protection Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-294), (18 U.S.C. 1030), or other applicable criminal laws.

California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR)

  • We will not sell your data.
  • You have the right to know what data we collect about you.

Visitors’ California Privacy Rights

California law provides that California residents have a right to request that businesses tell them how their personally identifiable information has been shared with third parties for those third parties’ direct marketing purposes. However, there is an exception to this requirement for businesses that have adopted and disclosed, in their privacy policy, a policy of not disclosing a person’s personally identifiable information to third parties for those third parties’ direct marketing purposes if that person has exercised an option to opt out of the disclosure of their personally identifiable information to third parties for such purposes.

CISO Global has adopted a policy of allowing Visitors to opt out of the disclosure of Visitors’ personally identifiable information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes and thus falls within this exception. Instructions for opting out can be found in the section entitled “Choices” and opt-out sections above.
