If you do not agree with any part of this Privacy Policy, you must not use or access our website. Please review carefully our privacy policy and practices and contact us if you have any questions or comments.
You may be asked to provide your personal information anytime you contact Kennedy Jenks. In accordance with our Privacy Policy, Kennedy Jenks may share this personal information with our affiliates. This information may also be used to improve our products, services, content and advertising. You are not required to provide your personal information; however, Kennedy Jenks and its affiliates may not be able to respond or provide information that you are requesting without your personal information.
What personal information do we collect?
When you visit our website, submit a message, register for an event or newsletter, participate in a survey, or other online Kennedy Jenks experiences, we may collect information, including without limitation, your name, mailing address, phone number, email address, contact preferences, IP address, location, or other information.
How we use your personal information?
We may process your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy and to keep you informed of announcements, alert you of upcoming events, determine service interest, understand regional and local preferences or as otherwise necessary for the business operations of Kennedy Jenks. If at any time you wish to opt out, you may contact us by using the “Contact Us” link at the top of the page with your request.
Occasionally we may use your personal information to send notices such as changes to our terms, conditions, and policies. Because this information is important to your interaction with Kennedy Jenks, you may not opt out of receiving these communications.
We may also use personal information for internal purposes such as auditing, data analysis, and research to improve all aspects of our business operations.
Collection and Use of Non-Personal Information
We also collect data in a form that does not, on its own, permit direct association with any specific individual. We may collect, use, transfer, and disclose non-personal information for any purpose, as follows:
- We may collect information such as language, zip code, area code, unique device identifier, referrer URL, location, and IP address.
- We may also collect non-personal information regarding user activities on our website and from our other products and services. This information is aggregated and used to help us provide a better experience for our users as it pertains to which parts of our website, products, and services are of most interest. Aggregated data is considered non‑personal information for the purposes of this Privacy Policy.
- We may collect and store details of how you use our services, including search queries. This information may be used to improve the relevancy of results provided by our services and such information may be associated with your IP address. If we do combine non-personal information with personal information the combined information will be treated as personal information for as long as it remains combined.
Cookies and Other Technologies
Kennedy Jenks may use “cookies” or other technologies such as pixel tags and web beacons on our websites, online services, interactive applications, email messages, and advertisements. These technologies serve as user tracking tools to help us understand the effectiveness of our communications, website visitation, web searches and other interactions. We treat information collected by cookies and other technologies as non‑personal information except where IP addresses or similar identifiers are considered personal information by law. In such cases, we will treat these identifiers as personal information. Similarly, to the extent that non-personal information is combined with personal information, we treat the combined information as personal information for the purpose of this Privacy Policy.
Kennedy Jenks and our affiliates also use cookies and other technologies to remember personal information when you use our website, online services, and applications in order to enhance your experience with Kennedy Jenks. If you want to disable the use of cookies, please refer to your browser settings.
As is true of most internet services, we gather some information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser type and language, Internet service provider (ISP), referring and exit websites and applications, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. We use this information to understand and analyze trends, to learn about user behavior on the site, to gather demographic information about our user base, and to generally administer the site. For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, Kennedy Jenks will consider this information as non-personal and may use this information for any purpose.
In some of our email messages, we use a “click-through URL” linked to content on the Kennedy Jenks website. When users click one of these URLs, they pass through a separate web server before arriving at the destination page on our website. We track this click-through data to help us determine interest in specific topics and measure the effectiveness of our user communications. If you prefer not to be tracked in this way, you should not click text or graphic links in the email messages.
Pixel tags enable us to send email messages in a format you can read, and they tell us whether mail has been opened. We may use this information to reduce or eliminate messages sent to users.
Kennedy Jenks utilizes Google Analytics to monitor the activity of our website. You may prevent your data from being used by Google Analytics by downloading and installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/ .

Disclosure to Third Parties
At times, Kennedy Jenks may make certain personal information available to its affiliates, including strategic partners and service providers to help with providing products and services or to assist with user marketing and advertisements. These companies are obligated to protect your information and may be located wherever Kennedy Jenks operates. We are not responsible for the privacy policies and practices of third parties and, therefore, it is your responsibility to review the privacy policies and practices of such third parties prior to agreeing to this Kennedy Jenks privacy policy.
Other Necessary Disclosure
It may be necessary − by law, legal process, litigation, and/or requests from public and governmental authorities within or outside your country of residence − for Kennedy Jenks to disclose your personal information. We may also disclose information about you if we determine that for purposes of national security, law enforcement, or other issues of significant importance, disclosure is necessary or appropriate. We may also disclose information about you if we determine that disclosure is reasonably necessary to enforce our terms and conditions or protect our operations or users.
Additionally, in the event of a reorganization, merger, or sale of Kennedy Jenks, we may transfer any and all personal information we collect to the relevant third party.
Kennedy Jenks uses industry standard security measures to protect the information under our control, including firewalls and other security measures. The inherent dangers of the Internet mean we cannot guarantee the protection of your information against loss, misuse, or alteration. However, in order to reasonably safeguard your personal information, Kennedy Jenks stores your personal information in encrypted form utilizing third-party storage.
When you participate in Kennedy Jenks chat rooms, social networking services, or public meetings, the personal information and content you share is visible to other users and can be read, collected, or used by them. You are responsible for the personal information you choose to share or submit in these instances. For example, if you list your name and email address in a forum posting, that information is public. Please exercise reasonable care when using these features.
Retention of your Personal Information
Kennedy Jenks will retain your personal information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy. Kennedy Jenks will carefully examine our need to collect personal information and if we establish a relevant need, we will retain it for an appropriate limited time period unless a longer retention period is required by law.
Regarding personal information we hold, we will provide you with such information (including a copy) by email request to our data privacy officer at privacy@kennedyjenks.com. In addition, you may request that we delete your personal information by emailing our data privacy officer at privacy@kennedyjenks.com. We will delete your personal information if it is not required to be retained by law or for our business purposes. We may decline to process requests that are frivolous/vexatious, jeopardize the privacy of others, are extremely impractical, or for which access is not otherwise required by law. We may also decline aspects of deletion or access requests if we believe doing so would undermine our use of data for anti-fraud and security purposes.

Kennedy Jenks websites, products, applications, and services may contain links to third-party websites, products, and services. Our products and services may also use or offer products or services from third parties − for example, a third‑party mobile app.
Information collected by third parties, which may include such things as location data or contact details, is governed by their privacy practices. We encourage you to learn about the privacy practices of those third parties. We are not responsible for the privacy policies and practices of third parties and, therefore, it is your responsibility to review the privacy policies and practices of such third parties prior to agreeing to this Kennedy Jenks privacy policy.
