Power Technical Training Center (PTTC) is dedicated to protecting your privacy. The protection of your name, email address, telephone number, mailing address, and credit card data is as important to us as it is to you. This Privacy Policy will answer your questions about security, access, and use of personal information on our website. We will explain how we collect, store, and process personal and financial information, as well as steps you can take to protect your privacy.

To collect this information, we apply third-party applications, such as website analytics tools like Google Analytics.

This includes your full name, email address, and a chosen password. These details are not necessary to use the website, but they are needed to use certain services. Your password is for accessing your account, so it must be as secure as possible. A good password includes a combination of random letters and numbers and is not obvious, such as a pet’s name or a favorite sports team.

Who Can See Your Personal Information?

We will collect your personal and credit card information only when you submit it to us. We do not store credit card details nor do we share financial details with any third parties, and we will use your details only to process your orders and to give you a personalized experience. You agree that any content you post on forums, bulletin boards, and other public areas within the website may be accessed, read, and collected by other users, who may use information you post publicly to send you unsolicited emails. This Privacy Policy does not protect your content on these locations, but you can request removal of such content by emailing us.

How Your Information Is Processed and Protected

A. We strive to protect data confidentiality by using encryption technology. For maximum security, all your order information, including your name, contact number, billing address, shipping address, and credit card data, is encrypted using a secure server.

To handle and process your financial information and transactions, we cooperate with Verisign and PayPal, two of the most trusted names in e-commerce and payment processing. They receive your credit card data, verify your numbers, and process your transaction. Payments can be made either via credit card or PayPal. You should be aware that it is your responsibility to protect your account and computer from unauthorized access.

Your financial data cannot be read or accessed as it travels through the ordering system. To take protective measures a step higher, we store only the last four digits of your credit card number on a server that cannot be accessed via the Internet.

B. The Power Technical Training Center website contains links to other sites that are not part of Power Technical Training Center. Please know and understand that when you click a link to an external site, we have no control over that site and how your information will be processed. You will be subject to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy of that new website. These links are presented on our pages merely to provide a convenient way to reach organizations and individuals affiliated with or relevant to Power Technical Training Center; they are not intended as implied endorsements of those websites.

Information that cannot be altered through your account can be updated by contacting us via email or phone. Please credibly show us any error or information that needs to be changed or deleted.

To protect your privacy and confidentiality, we use reasonable efforts to verify your identity before granting you access to make changes, deletions, or updates.

We will retain your information as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you service.
