Privacy & Cookies Policy

Your privacy is very important to us. We want to make your experience on the Internet as
enjoyable and rewarding as possible, and we want you to use the Internet’s vast array of
information, tools, and opportunities with complete confidence. We have created this Privacy &
Cookies Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy and security. This Privacy &
Cookies Policy describes how our company collects information from all end users (“Visitors”)
of Cinco Website or Platforms (the “Website”) what we do with the information we collect, and
the choices Visitors have concerning the collection and use of such information. We request that
you read this Privacy & Cookies Policy carefully.

What Types of Personal Information we collect?
Personal information you provide to us through the Cinco Website or otherwise includes:
Contact information, such as your first and last name, email and mailing addresses and
phone number.
Content you choose to upload to the Cinco Website and Platforms, such as comments and
messages in, for example, review forms, review areas, and other message areas
(“Forums”).
Marketing information, such as information including your preferences for receiving
communications about our activities, events, and publications, and details about how you
engage with our communications.
Feedback or correspondence, such as information you provide when you contact us with
questions, feedback, or otherwise correspond with us online.
Other information that we may collect which is not specifically listed here, but which we
will use in accordance with this Privacy and Cookies Policy or as otherwise disclosed at
the time of collection.

Information we obtain from social media platforms.
We may maintain pages for Cinco on social media platforms, such as Facebook, LinkedIn,
Instagram, and other third-party platforms. When you visit or interact with our pages on those
platforms, the platform provider’s privacy policy will apply to your interactions and their
collection, use and processing of your personal information. You or the platforms may provide
us with information through the platform, and we will treat such information in accordance with
this Privacy and Cookies Policy.

Information we obtain from other third-parties.
We may receive personal information about you from third-party sources. For example, a
business partner may share your contact information with us if you have expressed interest in
learning specifically about Cinco. We may obtain your personal information from other
third-parties, such as marketing partners, publicly-available sources and data providers.

Cinco Company Partners and Sponsors
Some services may be offered to Visitors in conjunction with an affiliate, independent contractor
seller or non-affiliated partner. To provide Visitors some of these services, the partner may need
to collect and maintain personal information. In these instances, you will be notified before any
such data is collected or transferred and may decide not to use that particular service or feature.
 
Online Advertisements
Cinco may display online advertisements. In those cases the Company shares aggregated and
non-identifying information about our Visitors collected through the registration process as well
as through online surveys and promotions with these advertisers.

Responses to Email Inquiries
When Visitors send email inquiries to our company, the return email address is used to answer
the email inquiry we receive. Cinco does not use the return email address for any other purpose
and does not share the return email address with any third party.

Voluntary Customer Surveys
We may periodically conduct both business and individual customer surveys. We encourage our
visitors to participate in these surveys because they provide us with important information that
helps us to improve the types of services we offer and how we provide them to you. Your
personal information and responses will remain strictly confidential, even if the survey is
conducted by a third party. Participation in our customer surveys is voluntary. We may take the
information we receive from individuals responding to our Customer Surveys and combine (or
aggregate) it with the responses of other customers we may have to create broader, generic
responses to the survey questions (such as gender, age, residence, hobbies, education,
employment, industry sector, or other demographic information). We then use the aggregated
information to improve the quality of our services to you and to develop new services and
products. This aggregated, non-personally identifying information may be shared with third
parties.

sites. Our company may use cookies to collect, store, and sometimes track information for

cannot guarantee that our security measures will prevent third-party “hackers” from illegally
obtaining this information.

When Do We Share Personal Information We Collect?
We do not share your personal information with third parties without your consent, except in the
following circumstances or as described in this Privacy Policy:
Business and Marketing Partners. We may sometimes share your personal information
with partners or enable partners to collect information directly via our Services. For

order to facilitate your transactions with us, and such partners may send you promotional
materials or otherwise contact you regarding products and services that they offer. When
you choose to register for any of our events, we may share the personal information you
provide as part of the event with the named co-sponsors or other third parties affiliated
with such event. We may also share your personal information with trusted third-party

Other users of the Services and the public. We may provide functionality that enables
you to disclose personal information to other users of the Services or the public. For

All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
