We may also capture certain non-personal information such as the browser, operating system or the type of search engine you are using.

How we use this information

We use this information to better serve our client base. The information gathered online might be used when updating information on our websites or our print publications. We may also use this information when adding or evaluating online customer service options, or to send you notices, information, or updates that we believe may be of interest to you.

If you have provided information for someone else to receive information from us, then their email address will be used to send them an email, if such was requested by you. We might also use this information to send them notices, information, or updates that may be of interest to them.

We Protect Your Privacy

Olson will not share the email addresses that we collect through your online participation with any unaffiliated third parties, unless we disclose such potential use to you and request your consent at the time this information is collected. Unless you consent, only Olson and its affiliates, our technical advisors, and third party auditors will have access to the information gathered through your online usage.

Email and postal correspondence

There are checkboxes on our online forms that allow you to indicate whether you wish to receive email correspondence, such as information on newsletters or updates, from Olson and our affiliates. These messages are optional. By checking the appropriate box and submitting the form, you will be entitled to receive email correspondence.

Promotions and Newsletters

If you choose to provide your email address to us through your use of Olson's websites, we may occasionally send to you by email notices, information, or updates we feel may be of interest to you based on the data we have collected.

With both types of notices, you have the choice to opt out by un-checking the appropriate box in the profile section of the website.

You may also be given the option to receive certain email newsletters that we feel may interest you based on your preferences determined by data that we have obtained through your email usage. You may sign up to receive these at any time, and you may also choose to unsubscribe at any time.
