Terms of Use

Privacy Statement

We want you to get the most out of the website and to trust that we make every effort to protect your confidentiality.

Please take a few minutes to read our complete privacy statement so you can understand how information is used and the specific measures we take to protect your personal information.

Personal information is either requested or required on specific areas of the portal, to verify your identity and ensure that you qualify to use particular services, access particular information or use particular sections of the site. The nature and type of personal information requested may then depend on how you use the portal. The information may be stored and used in order to enhance you visits to the portal; but will not be disclosed to any third parties without your consent.

Normal Website Usage

The only data we collect and store during normal website usage is typical web server log data. Examples of this type of data are: the name of your Internet service provider, the site that referred you to us, any pages you request, and the time and date of those requests etc.

We use this information to generate statistics and measure site activity. This information is not shared with third parties.

Collection of Personally Identifiable Information

There are instances where Bermuda 2009 requests personally identifiable information to provide site visitors with a service. This information, such as name, mailing address, email address, and type of request, is collected and stored in a manner appropriate to the nature of the request, as determined by Bermuda 2009, to fulfill your needs.

During the course of your visit, you may move to third party sites not controlled by Bermuda 2009. It is recommended that you check the specific privacy statements of any site before providing any personally identifiable information.

What are cookies?

A “cookie” is a small line of text that is stored within your browser when you visit a cookie-enabled website. As you browse the Web, cookie-enabled sites will send cookies to your browser, along with pages. Your browser probably has options that will let you control whether the browser accepts cookies, rejects cookies, or notifies you each time a cookie is sent to you.

If your browser is set to reject cookies, cookie-enabled websites will not recognize you when you return. This provides you with anonymity, but it also makes it very difficult to offer you customized services. It is also less secure than using cookies, because all of your specific data must be sent to the website each time you view a page. Accepting cookies means your private data can stay at the Web server, and the only information transmitted over the Internet is your ID cookie.

If your browser is set to accept cookies, any cookies that are sent to your browser are stored in your computer for a period of time. There are a few different types of cookies. A “session” cookie is stored only in your computer’s working memory (RAM) and only lasts for your browsing session. When you close all of your browser’s windows, or when you shut down your computer, the session cookie disappears forever. A “permanent” cookie is stored on your computer’s hard drive until a specified date, which could be tomorrow, next week, or 10 years from now. Permanent cookies stay on your computer until either:

  1. they expire,
  2. they are overwritten with newer cookies,
  3. you manually remove them.
