Unless otherwise specifically noted, this Privacy Policy does not apply to personal information collected from you offline, or to third-party web sites to which YTL Power International Web Sites may link save as otherwise provided herein. Your use of YTL Power International Web Sites is subject to this Privacy Policy and the Online Terms of Use.

Please read this Privacy Policy before using YTL Power International Web Sites or submitting personal information to us.

What is "personal information" as used in this Privacy Policy?
"Personal information" means information that identifies you or could be used to identify you and which is submitted to and/or collected by YTL Power International Web Sites. Examples of personal information include your name, your postal address, your e-mail address and your telephone number.

How does YTL Power International collect information online?
YTL Power International collects information in two ways:

1. Personal Information You Submit:
YTL Power International collects personal information that you enter into data fields on YTL Power International Web Sites. For example, you may submit your name, postal address, e-mail address, and/or other information in order to receive information about various subjects, register for YTL Power International programmes, contact YTL Power International customer service, or respond to YTL Power International surveys. To protect your privacy, you should not provide YTL Power International with any information that is not specifically requested.

2. Passive Collection of Unidentifiable Information:
YTL Power International Web Sites may collect information about your visits to YTL Power International Web Sites without you actively submitting such information. Unidentifiable information may be collected using various technologies, such as cookies, and web beacons. Cookies are small text files that are transferred to your computer's hard disk by a website. Web beacons (also referred to as GIF files, pixels or Internet tags) help YTL Power International recognise a unique cookie on your browser. Your Internet browser automatically transmits to YTL Power International Web Sites some of this unidentifiable information, such as the URL of the web site you just visited and the browser version your computer is operating. Passive information collection technologies can make your use of YTL Power International Web Sites easier by allowing YTL Power International to provide better service, customise YTL Power International Web Sites based on consumer preferences, compile statistics, analyse trends, and otherwise administer and improve YTL Power International Web Sites. Certain features of YTL Power International Web Sites may not work without use of passive information collection technologies. Information collected by these technologies cannot be used to identify you without additional identifiable information and YTL Power International will not connect additional identifiable information with information collected through the use of such tracking technologies. With respect to limiting or disabling tracking technology please see below "What choices do I have about how YTL Power International collects and uses personal information about me?"

In what circumstances and for what purposes might YTL Power International collect and use personal information?
YTL Power International will use the personal information you provide through YTL Power International Web Sites to respond to your questions and to provide you with efficient customer service. After you have entered personal information into a form or data field on any YTL Power International Web Site, YTL Power International may use certain identifying technologies to allow that YTL Power International Web Site to "remember" your personal preferences. We will only use your personal information for other business purposes, such as to offer you the opportunity to receive notices regarding YTL Power International's products or services.

Does YTL Power International consolidate personal information?
YTL Power International may consolidate the personal information of customers who use YTL Power International Web Sites. In addition, we may consolidate information in a non-identifiable form (aggregate/anonymous data) to help us better design YTL Power International Web Sites and YTL Power International products, to enhance our research activities, and to facilitate other business functions.

What choices do I have about how YTL Power International collects and uses personal information about me?
You may always limit the amount and type of personal information that YTL Power International receives about you by choosing not to enter any personal information into forms or data fields on YTL Power International Web Sites. Some of our online services can only be provided to you if you provide us with appropriate personal information. Other parts of YTL Power International Web Sites may ask whether you wish to opt into our contact lists for offers, promotions and additional services that may be of interest to you.

You may also be provided with preference questions or preference boxes allowing you to indicate that you do not want YTL Power International Web Sites to use tracking technologies, such as cookies, to "remember" your personal information, such as mailing addresses, on return visits. However, YTL Power International Web Sites that use tracking technologies to collect unidentifiable information do not generally provide you with the ability to opt out of the tracking technologies. Some Internet browsers allow you to limit or disable the use of tracking technologies that collect unidentifiable information.

Who will have access to personal information about me?
Personal information can be accessed by a restricted number of YTL Power International employees, by certain companies with which YTL Power International may conduct joint programmes, and by third parties with whom YTL Power International contracts to carry out business activities for YTL Power International. We train our employees about the importance of privacy and how to handle and manage customer data appropriately and securely. Also, it is YTL Power International's practice to seek your consent where required by applicable law if you are registering for a programme which is conducted in conjunction with another company that may require access to your personal information.

Does YTL Power International share personal information with third parties?
Except as otherwise stated in this Section, YTL Power International will not transfer your personal information to third parties unless you have been provided with an opportunity to opt-in to this disclosure. YTL Power International may disclose your personal information without your opt-in to third party service providers which assist us with our business activities. YTL Power International further reserves the right to disclose your personal information to respond to authorised information requests from government authorities or when otherwise required by law.
