As part of our commitment to privacy, we have adopted this Online Privacy Statement. The extent and type of information we receive from you on our external Web sites depends on the information you provide to us through our contact mailboxes and/or through the registration processes on our sites. We only use your personally identifiable information to respond to your requests and to provide you with information about KPMG's services, unless we obtain your permission to use your personal information for other purposes. For example, if you send us an e-mail message requesting information about KPMG, we will use your e-mail address and other information you supply to respond to your request. If we intend to use your personal information to inform you about other KPMG services, we will notify you and give you an opportunity to decline to receive such communications.

We use the information you provide to personalize your online experience and to deliver the content most suited to your needs. Such Web sites also provide an opportunity for you to update your registration information should you no longer wish to receive information from us. In addition, "cookies" (i.e., small text files placed on your computer when you first visit the site) are used on some of our Web sites.

We use this information about the number of visitors and their use of the sites in aggregate form to make our sites more useful and attractive to you. If you subscribe to newsletters from KPMG (e.g., Info Alert), we may be able to confirm the e-mail addresses of subscribers who have clicked on URLs embedded in our message content; we collect this information to gauge user interest and to make future newsletters more useful by customizing the content provided to you. The personal information you provide to us will be retained only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which the information was collected or as required by law.
