The information we collect and how we use it

This Website is one where Network Professionals make information publicly available to those who want to hire them for their expertise. Only authorized Referral Network personnel have access to the nonpublic information submitted by a Network Professional.

This aggregate data cannot be traced to an individual.

The Referral Network reserves the right to disclose your personal information if required to do so by law, or in the good faith belief that such action is reasonably necessary to comply with the legal process, response to claims, or to protect the rights, property or safety of the Referral Network's employees, customers, clients, or the general public.

Other than as described above, the Referral Network does not sell, rent, or provide access to information about its clients and customers to third parties.
