Privacy Policy

Introduction

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) was enacted in the European Union on May 25, 2018 and contained many significant changes to the data protection laws. Based on protecting privacy and taking a risk-based approach, the GDPR has been designed to meet the requirements of the digital age.

Thank you for visiting and interacting with TJCII. We are dedicated to safeguarding all personal information under our control and in developing a data protection program that is effective and demonstrates an understanding of, and appreciation for the GDPR. Our preparation and objectives for GDPR compliance have been summarized in this statement and include the development and implementation of new data protection roles, policies, procedures, controls and measures to ensure maximum and ongoing compliance. If you have any questions or concerns about our Policy or our practice, please contact us at global@tjcii.org.

This Privacy Policy applies to all information collected through our website, and any related services including newsletters, sales, marketing or events.
