NEW GTO WEBSITE
__________________________
The GTO Board of Directors is very pleased to announce we are at last preparing to open the new GTO website.

The firm target date for opening the new website is 31 August, 2020.

GTO HQ Operations shall be gradually contacting GTO Member companies over the coming weeks to begin the process of uploading information and various types of data into the GTO Member profiles in the new website.

There shall also be profiles of staff of GTO Member companies with places for photos ( if desired ), alternate or emergency email addresses, mobile phone numbers, social media contact information ( if desired ) and other areas .

There shall be a process we shall follow as ID numbers are assigned and GTO Member companies create their own individual passwords.

GTO Member company profiles and individual profiles will no longer be available to the general public with the anticipated date of September 1, 2020.

Critical information such as alternate email addresses, mobile phone numbers, bank details of GTO Member companies and other information that may be considered private shall be added to the member / staff profiles
under password protection .

This is going to be a tedious " one time " process to carefully upload all information and data in the new GTO website. Much of the information is currently not available to GTO HQ in our records. Our goal is to ensure all
GTO Member companies have the ability to establish contact with any and all other GTO Member companies when desired.

Please bear with us as we move through this process. GTO is now moving in an entirely new and exciting direction.

More information is to follow soon.

Best regards to all -
