Privacy Policy

We Take Our Users Privacy Seriously

The Dominica Geothermal Development Company Ltd. (DGDC) has created this privacy policy to demonstrate our commitment to the privacy of the users of our website. Please read the following to learn more about our privacy policy, and how we treat personally identifiable information collected from our visitors and users.

Collection and Use of Personal Information

You can visit the DGDC’s website without revealing any personal information. However, the DGDC needs certain personal information if you wish to; submit a grievance, sign up to post comments and access our other membership areas. Where required, this information may include your personal contact information and/or your company contact information. The DGDC will use this information to reply to your inquiries, to provide you with requested information and services, to set up your member’s account (if you cannot do so), and to contact you regarding updates to the project. By accessing the services of the DGDC and voluntarily providing us with the requested personal information, you consent to the collection and use of the information in accordance with this privacy policy.

Collection and Use of Non-Personal Information

The DGDC automatically receives and records non-personal information on our server logs from your browser including your IP address, cookie information and the page you requested. The DGDC may use this information to learn more about its visitors, and see how best it can tailor its services to those visitors. However, the DGDC does not connect this non-personal data to any personal information collected from you. The DGDC also allows third-party companies that are presenting advertisements on some of our pages to set and access their cookies on your computer. Again, these cookies are not connected to any personal information. Third party cookie usage is subject to individual owned privacy policies, and the DGDC assumes no responsibility or liability for this usage.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

The DGDC may disclose your personal information to third parties who work on behalf of/or who is responsible for the DGDC, to provide services requested by you. We will share personal information for these purposes only with third parties whose privacy policies are consistent with ours or who agree to abide by our policies with respect to personal information

The DGDC may otherwise disclose your personal information when:

  • We have your express consent to share the information for a specified purpose;
  • We need to respond to subpoenas, court orders or such other legal process;
  • We need to protect the personal safety of the users of our website or defend the rights or property of the DGDC;
  • If your actions on our websites violate that of the DGDC.

Terms of Use document or any of our usage guidelines.

If you do not consent to the collection, use or disclosure of your personal information as outlined in this policy, please do not provide any personal information to the DGDC. If you have provided personal information to the DGDC and no longer consent to its use or disclosure as outlined herein, please notify the DGDC.

Public Forums

Our Website offers publicly accessible blogs or community discussions (comments sections). You should be aware that any information you provide in these areas may be read, collected, and used by others who access them. To request removal of your personal information from our blog or community forum, contact us at info@geodominica.com. In some cases, we may not be able to remove your personal information, in which case we will let you know if we are unable to do so and why.

Note regarding children under 13

The website is intended to be used by adults. It is not intended for children, and DGDC does not want to collect any personal information for persons who are under the age of 13. DGDC recommends that parents do not post, or permit others to post, any personally identifiable information with respect to persons under the age of 13. If you believe that we have any information from a child under age 13, please contact us at info@geodominica.com.

Links to other sites

This Privacy Policy applies only to this website, and not to websites owned by third parties. We may provide links to other websites which we believe may be of interest to our visitors. We aim to ensure that such websites are of the highest standard. However, due to the nature of the internet, we cannot guarantee the privacy standards of websites to which we link or be responsible for the contents of sites other than this one, and this Privacy Policy is not intended to be applicable to any linked, non-DGDC site.

Security

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be considered 100% secure. However, your DGDC Information is protected for your privacy and security. We also safeguard your personal information from unauthorized access, through access control procedures. Further, the DGDC retains your personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes identified above or as required by law.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

The DGDC may at any time, without notice to you and in its sole discretion, amend this policy from time to time. Please review this policy periodically. Your continued use of the DGDC website after any such amendments signifies your acceptance thereof.
