BlueTree Advisors Inc. (“BTA”) intends for BlueTreeAdvisors.com (“Our Site”) to complement the services that the firm provides. This statement, set forth below, is our privacy statement for our professional services and our affiliated and associated entities. Here we describe the practices we follow to respect the privacy of all visitors to Our Site. At BTA, we have focused on implementing fair information practices that are designed to protect your privacy. We believe that everyone benefits from the free flow of information when that information is gathered and used responsibly. If you have questions or you do not feel that your concerns have been addressed in our privacy statement, contact us.
Collection, use, disclosure and choice
Registration is not required for you to use Our Site. If you are merely a visitor, we do not collect any personal information about you, except to the limited extent through the use of cookies, which are described below. However, there may be circumstances in which you choose to register to ongoing updates from BTA. In these cases, BTA may contact registrants to invite them to special events, provide them with information about our services, publications and products, or for other marketing purposes. Information collected at registration is protected using industry-standard encryption technology as it is sent over the Internet. For example, you may choose to register for:
Email alerts
BTA offers an email alert service to site visitors, in which we send subscribers email updates when new information is added to Our Site. If you decide to subscribe, we will collect basic contact information about you, such as your name and email address.
BTA Webcasts
To view a BTA Webcast (live or archived), registration is required. When you register, you must provide your name, email and mailing addresses, country, industry, company, position and phone number. At the time of registration, you are also asked whether or not you are a client of BTA, and whether or not you would like to be informed of upcoming webcasts via BTA Webcast email alerts. All information is required in order to view any webcast. At the time of registration, you can check a box to automate the log-in process, which allows you to be automatically logged on upon your return to the BTA Webcast section when using the same computer. We use registration information for internal research and analysis purposes to help us understand who is viewing our webcasts, and become better equipped to serve your needs. If you are interested in BTA Webcasts, but you do not wish to provide any personally identifiable information, you can read the executive summaries (“BTA webcast recaps”) posted on Our Site, which require no registration.
Surveys
BTA may conduct surveys via Our Site. Survey participants may be asked for personal information (name, contact information, etc.) in addition to opinions or feedback. The type of information collected in surveys will vary.
Turnaround Leadership registration
BTA occasionally requires registration in exchange for our Turnaround Leadership: white papers, articles, studies, reports, survey analyses, booklets, etc. Personal information may be asked for on registration forms and the type of information collected may vary. BTA reserves the right to distribute certain Turnaround Leadership materials only to those who supply the requested information.
Event registration
BTA facilitates event registration via Our Site or, at times, via third party web sites. Personal information may be collected via event registration forms and the type of information collected will vary. BTA may share registrant information with third parties in association with the event. Examples of “third parties” include hotels, sponsors or co-sponsors, promoters, event organizers (including via third party web sites), speakers, panellists, etc. Please check the details provided at individual events to understand fully how your information will be used.

BTA does not intentionally collect any sensitive information via Our Site unless legally required to do so, for example recruitment purposes. Sensitive personal information includes race or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or other beliefs, trade union membership, physical or mental health, sexual life or criminal records and in some cases social security numbers or financial information. BTA works to protect the confidentiality and security of such information it obtains in the course of business. Access to such information is limited and policies and procedures are in place designed to safeguard the information from loss, misuse and improper disclosure.

Cookies and Web Beacons
Our Site may use cookies and Web beacons.
What is a cookie?
A “cookie” is technology that allows Our Site to store tokens of information (an ‘identifier’) in your browser used only by Our Site while you are on Our Site. Cookies are not used to determine the personal identity of anyone who is merely visiting Our Site. They serve to help us track traffic patterns to determine a user’s preferred location and browser so that we can improve their experience when they visit Our Site. Cookies have other uses as well. For example, in the Turnaround Leadership Webcast section (“Webcast Section”), they are used to provide entry for subscribers who have chosen the automatic log-on feature during registration. Cookies are also used to prevent online poll participants from voting more than once. If you do not want to receive a cookie from Our Site or the Webcast Section, you have the option of setting your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, so that you may determine whether to accept it or not. However, please be aware that if you do turn off ‘cookies’ in your browser, you will not be able to fully experience some of the features of Our Site. For example, you will not be able to benefit from automatic log-on and other personalization features of the Webcast Section. What cookies do we use? The cookies used by Our Site perform four functions, as classified below:
1. Essential/Strictly Necessary Cookies

BTA occasionally advertises on third party Web sites. As part of our effort to track the success of our advertising campaigns, we may at times use a visitor information technology such as “web beacons,” or “action tags,” which count visitors who have come to Our Site after being exposed to a BTA banner ad on a third party site. We do not use this technology to access your personal information and; it is only used to compile aggregated statistics about visitors who come to Our Site and to gauge the effectiveness of our ads.
