We may collect contact information through our Site such as your name, email address, phone number, business contact data (e.g., title, company name, office phone number and company email address), and any information you provide in messages to us (“Contact Information”). We use Contact Information for the purpose it was submitted, such as responding to your inquiries or providing you with requested information.
2. Information obtained automatically from your online activity
When visitors access or use the Site, we use cookies that are necessary for proper operation of the Site such as session cookies, which are essential to navigating a website.

If you do not want any cookies placed on your hard drive, you may be able to turn that feature off on your computer or mobile device. Please consult your internet browser’s documentation for information on how to do this. However, if you choose to do so, our Site will not operate properly. We also automatically collect access logs, PHP error logs and slow error logs (which may contain IP addresses and/or browser information).
3. Social Media
TGS maintains a page on Linkedin (“Linkedin Page”), where personal information may be collected from and about visitors by Linkedin. Linkedin may provide us with aggregate information and analysis about visitors’ access and use of our Linkedin Page. This allows us to better understand and analyze our user growth, general demographic information about the users of our Linkedin Page and their interaction with content we make available on our Linkedin Page. Overall, this information may be used to help us understand the types of visitors and users of our Linkedin Page and its content.
This Privacy Policy does not cover Personal Information collected by Linkedin or its privacy and security practices. If you have any questions about Linkedin’s privacy or security practices, please review its privacy policies and terms of service.
