Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to the ͵ÅÄ͵¿ú website and governs data collection and usage. By using the ͵ÅÄ͵¿ú website, you consent to the data practices described in this policy. Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through ͵ÅÄ͵¿ú public message boards, this information may be collected and used by others. ͵ÅÄ͵¿ú encourages you to review the privacy statements of all websites you use, so that you can understand how those websites collect, use and share your information.

͵ÅÄ͵¿ú does not provide to third parties personally identifying information if that dissemination is not authorized by you. We provide to third parties aggregate information. Comments on a list-serv may be seen by others, both members of our community and by others if your message is reposted elsewhere.

Information gathering

͵ÅÄ͵¿ú may use your IP (Internet Protocol) address to help diagnose problems with our server, and to administer our website by identifying which parts of our site are most heavily used and which portion of our audience comes from within our network. We do not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable. This means that user sessions may be tracked, but the users will remain anonymous. We occasionally monitor search terms that users enter into the ͵ÅÄ͵¿ú Search Engine, but this tracking is never associated with individual users.

Use of information

͵ÅÄ͵¿ú uses the information gathered above to tailor site content to user needs, and to generate aggregate statistical reports.

͵ÅÄ͵¿ú does not provide third parties personally identifying information for which such dissemination is not authorized by the person. We may provide to third parties aggregate information.

We may request your e-mail address or mailing address on some of the forms contained on the site. Whenever we request the identity of a visitor, we will clearly indicate the purpose of the inquiry before the information is requested. If you choose to email us with your personal information, we will use this information to respond to your inquiry or request. There are times when your email will be forwarded within ͵ÅÄ͵¿ú to employees who are better able to assist you.

Security

The ͵ÅÄ͵¿ú server has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control.

Email and e-lists

You are responsible for any comments and information that you post on our site. While list membership is limited to permitted users, others may also see the posted comments-whether by improper technological means or by someone forwarding a posting to an off-list person. Common courtesy and the awareness that this is a semi-public forum should frame your comments. List submissions become our copyright property. Should a participant’s activities tend to harm the community, we may use our discretion to limit that person’s online activities.
