Introduction
The Planning Institute of Jamaica (PIOJ) respects your right to privacy and is
committed to protecting your privacy. As certain types of information about
users is gathered, the PIOJ wants to ensure that you fully understand the terms
and conditions under which you use the site, and information is captured and
used. It is the policy of the PIOJ to use any personal information acquired for
business purposes only and this information will remain private.
Personal information
If you send us feedback or register to buy a book and statistical data or join
a discussion group, you will be asked for personal information, such as your
name, address, email address, and organization. The information provided is
used for technical and customer administration of the site only and isn't
shared with third parties.
The PIOJ uses a contractual fulfillment vendor for credit card processing
service to bill users for goods they purchase. This financial institution does
not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any
secondary purposes. This party is not allowed to use personally identifiable
information except for the purpose of providing these services.
Non-personally identifiable information
In some instances, non-personally identifiable information is collected to
enable the PIOJ to better understand user preferences and improve its site and
services to its clients. The information collected cannot be traced back to a
particular individual. Examples of this type of information include statistics
on the pages which are most and least frequently visited.
If you do not wish to share your information, you may have access to some areas
of the site. However, you will not be able to purchase publications and other
goods on-line.

Security
Care and diligence is exercised in managing and securing personal information
once it is received. As such, the PIOJ employs a range of technologies to
protect the information from loss, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure,
alteration, or destruction. The PIOJ uses Secure Socket Layering (SSL)
technology to encrypt your personal credit card information, including the
account number, while it is transmitted over the Internet between your computer
