Google Analytics
When someone visits the Biz Post Daily website, we use a third-party service, Google Analytics, to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behaviour patterns. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors to the various parts of the site. This information is only processed in a way that does not identify anyone. We do not allow Google to make any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting our website.
Mailing Lists
As part of the sign-up process to join our mailing list, enter competitions, or to request further information about a particular product, we collect personal information. We use that information for a couple of reasons: to send you the information that you have requested, to contact you if you have a legitimate interest in our other products and services, we need to obtain or provide additional information; to check our records are right and to check every now and then that you’re satisfied. We use Revue to deliver our newsletter and email marketing campaigns. We gather statistics around email opening and clicks using industry-standard technologies to help us monitor and improve our e-newsletter. You can unsubscribe to general mailings at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any of our emails.

We may share and disclose information (including Personal Information) about our customers in the following limited circumstances: Vendors, consultants and other service providers. We may share your information with third-party vendors, consultants and other service providers who we employ to perform tasks on our behalf.
Unless we tell you differently and you consent, our agents do not have any right to use the Personal Information we share with them beyond what is necessary to assist us.
We may also share your personal data with other companies under Amazing Kisumu brands if you have a legitimate interest in that product.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Disclosures for National Security or Law Enforcement
Under certain circumstances, we may be required to disclose your Personal Information in response to valid requests by public authorities, including meeting national security or law enforcement requirements.
Exhibitors and sponsors
If you choose to allow your badge to be scanned at one of our events, we may pass the information you provide to third parties. Generally, this will be via a process whereby you, as the user, visit or interact with a third party e.g. visit a stand at an exhibition, have your badge scanned or click on an asset branded and provided by a third party. If you wish to change your contact preferences with an individual exhibitor/sponsor, please follow their own unsubscribe request details. Unsubscribing with one of our products will stop that product from contacting you in the future, but not the individual third parties with whom you have interacted independently.
