Privacy Policy. The following policies are only in effect for the
Web pages, newsletters and opt-in announcement lists owned and
operated by Mont Blanc Trust. The following discloses our Privacy
Policy.
montblanctrust.co.za does track which content you access, however
individual information on accessed content is deemed private and is
therefore not made public. This information is only used internally

POLICY.
What information is collected and how it is collected?
Every computer connected to the Internet is given a domain name and
a set of numbers, which serve as that computer's "Internet Protocol"
(IP) address. When a visitor requests a page from
montblanctrust.co.za our Web servers automatically recognize that
visitor's domain name and IP address. The domain name and IP address
reveal nothing personal about you other than the IP address from
which you have accessed our site. We use this information to examine
website interactivity. Our Web servers do not record e-mail
addresses of the visitors.
How we use single-pixel gifs or tracking scripts?
montblanctrust.co.za may use single-pixel gif images or tracking
scripts, sometimes referred to as web bugs or web beacons, to
evaluate website interactivity and gather some general statistical
information. Mont Blanc Trust may use single-pixel gifs or tracking
scripts that can track personal information from cookies that may
have been previously placed on a user's computer.
What other information do we request?
We may also request your personal details including but not limited
to e-mail address, mailing address for the purposes of registering
as a site user, conducting a survey or to provide additional
services (for example, subscriptions to e-mail newsletters,
announcement lists or information about seminars).
Whenever we request the identity of a visitor, we will clearly
indicate the purpose of the inquiry before the information is
requested. We maintain a strict "No-Spam" policy. We will also not
sell or rent your e-mail address to a third-party.
When you enter a contest or other promotion, we may ask for your
name, address and e-mail address so that we can administer the
contest and notify winners.
Will we disclose the information we collect to outside, third
parties?
Mont Blanc Trust will disclose personal information when required by
law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to:
-
Conform to the
edicts of the law or comply with a legal process served on
montblanctrust.co.za,
-

the rights or property of Mont Blanc Trust or visitors to

-

information online - for example through e-mail, discussion lists,
