Last updated: February 28, 2021

We care about your privacy.

By using the tbinnovates.com website (the “Site”), which is operated by STAR-TEC Enterprises, Inc., a Florida 501c3 organization, DBA Tampa Bay Innovation Center, ("us", "we", or "our"), you agree to our terms of service including this privacy policy. 

Our policy discloses how we collect and use information including any personal information that you provide to us by using the Site.

This applies to everyone including, without limitation, users, visitors, and anyone that wishes to access or use the Site.

Information Collection and Use

While using the Site, we may ask you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information (“PDI”) that can be used to contact or identify you. 

PDI may include, without limitation, your name, mailing address, email, phone number, username and password.

We may use PDI for any and all of the following, without limitations: analytics, contacting you, providing services, answering questions, sending you email newsletters, registering you for an account, participation in surveys, and enforcing our terms of service.

We do not sell PDI.

 We do not share PDI with anyone without your permission.

Your PDI may be collected and used by third party applications that are provided or used on the Site, such as payment processors and utilities, which have their own terms of use and privacy policy. Your agreement to use their services is between you and the third party application, and We are not liable for any use of your PDI by any third party application.

We do not need to know your trade secrets, and you should not share any valuable trade secrets or other valuable proprietary information with us. It is our policy not to sign any nondisclosure agreements, but we will not share any proprietary information that you share with us with others without your permission. We have no need to retain any proprietary or trade secret information. Our email should not be considered secure, and if you have any communication that needs to be secured, then you should inform us and arrange to share the confidential information via a secure means of communications other than routine email messages through our unsecure, administrative email system.

Cookies

Cookies capture data, which may include an anonymous unique identifier. Cookies sent to your browser from our Site may be stored on your computer's hard drive. These "cookies" collect information that we may use to make your visit to our Site more productive. The Site may use cookies for various reasons including, without limitation:

·         Analyzing our web traffic using an analytics package.

Security

Security is important to us, especially the security of your PID. No method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is entirely safe or secure. While we strive to use reputable brands for our transmission and storage of data, these commercially acceptable methods are never perfect, and we cannot guarantee your PID is secure. For that reason, we limit the PID that we collect and store on our systems.

Children’s Privacy

This Site is intended for use by a general audience and does not offer services to children. If we know that you are a child under 13, then we will use the information you send us only to respond directly to you and inform you that you are not permitted to use this Site. Your parent or legal guardian may use the Site using their own information but should not provide any of your PID.
