When you consent to continuing to use the Calipso website or agree to the blanket terms of those internet platforms on which we have directory listings and social media profiles you agree to submit this information, you confirm that it is true and correct and that you will not provide us with any information which constitutes personal data unless you have ensured that you have obtained all necessary third-party consents or other legal justification and/or provided any required notices to the data you provide or that you are otherwise permitted to provide such information to us, so that we can use it for the purposes and on the bases set out in this Privacy Policy.

Do third parties have access to my information?
Yes. While we are primarily the business entity that will make use of your data, there are several ways in which third parties regularly access some or all of the data we collect on you and use such data to further the specific goals and objectives of their own organizations.
Governments and Political Subdivisions. We will actively share and provide your personal information and metadata pertaining to you in order to comply with our legal obligations to assist any law enforcement authority or criminal investigation body within our legal jurisdiction of the United States of America, the US State of Florida and Miami-Dade County;

Is the private information that is retained by Calipso being held outside of your home country or territory?
Potentially. The information you provide to us will be held in servers based inside the United States of America (USA) and may be otherwise accessible to terminals outside the European Economic Area (EEA). By way of example, this may happen where any of our servers or those of our third party service providers are from time to time located in a country outside of the EEA or the USA. These countries may not have similar data protection laws to the USA or the EEA. Where possible, we have made reasonable efforts to comply with privacy guidelines that are compliant with those in the EEA and the state of California in the USA.
While our best efforts are being made to protect your data, we make no guarantees that cyber attacks, social engineering or other security breaches that affect your personal data will not occur.

How long will Calipso keep your information on file?
We do not retain personal information in an identifiable format for longer than is necessary to ensure we can deliver our services adequately. We generally consider seven years from the last known interaction with you to be an appropriate and reasonable retention period for such data.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure and we rely on quality third-party suppliers for web hosting, digital communications and other services. These third-party organizations may retain your data for indefinite periods of time, including data in a personally identifiable format..
What can you do as a user to protect your own privacy?
Our website may occasionally contain links to other websites run by other organizations. It is important to know that this policy does not apply to those other websites so we encourage you to read their privacy statements. We cannot be responsible for the privacy policies and practices of other websites even if you access them using links on the Calipso site or in Calipso-provided content (like an email newsletter, text message, social post or PDF download). In addition, if you linked to our website from a third party website, we cannot be responsible for the privacy policies and practices of the owners and operators of that third-party website and recommend that you read the policy of that third-party website.
