We have included this Privacy Policy section to demonstrate our firm
commitment to privacy and security. This section describes how sciact.org
collects information from all end users of sciact.org's
custom services and web hosting services, what we do with the information we
collect, and the choices visitors and customers have concerning the collection
and use of such information. sciact.org requests that you read this
Privacy Policy section carefully.
sciact.org collects information in different ways from visitors and
customers who access the various parts of our web site. We use this information
primarily to provide a customized experience as you use our services and,
generally, do not share this information with third parties. There may exist,
however, special circumstances in which we may seek a customer's permission to
disclose personal information collected.
Customers are asked to provide certain personal information when they sign up
for our services including name, address, telephone number, billing information
(such as a credit card number), and the type of personal computer being used to
access our services. The personal information collected from customers during
the registration process is used to manage each Member's account (such as for
billing purposes). This information is not shared with third parties, unless
specifically stated otherwise or in special circumstances. However, sciact.org
may generate non-identifying and aggregate statistics from personal
information customers provide during registration (such as the total number, but
not the names, of customers). We may use this aggregated and non-identifying
information to advertise or sell advertisements that appear on our web site.
When visitors or customers send email inquiries to sciact.org, the
return email address is used to answer the email inquiry we receive. sciact.org
does not use the return email address for any other purpose and does
not share the return email address with any third party.
We provide visitors and customers the opportunity to fill out a needs
assessment survey. We encourage our customers to participate in these surveys
because they provide us with important information that helps us to improve the
types of services we offer and how we provide them to you. Your personal
information and responses will remain strictly confidential and used only for
the purposes of anticipating and fullfiling your needs. Participation in our
assessment survey is voluntary.
About "Cookies"
A "cookie" is a small data file that can be placed
on your hard drive when you visit certain Web sites. sciact.org may use
cookies to collect, store, and sometimes track information for statistical
purposes to improve the products and services we provide. If you are a customer,
we will use a cookie to save your settings and to provide customizable and
personalized services. These cookies do not enable third parties to access any
of your customer information. Additionally, be aware that if you visit non-sciact.org
Web sites where you are prompted to log in or that are
customizable, you may be required to accept cookies. Advertisers on our web site
may also use their own cookies. We do not control use of these cookies and
expressly disclaim responsibility for information collected through them.
sciact.org recommends that children ask a parent for permission
before sending personal information to sciact.org, or to anyone else
online.
Please remember that any information you may disclose in public areas of our
Web sites or the Internet, becomes public information. You should exercise
caution when deciding to disclose personal information in these public areas.
Web hosting providers that sciact.org utilizes to deliver hosting
services (primarily, ReadyHosting.com), have security measures
in place to protect the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under
our control. While these providers make every effort to ensure the integrity and
security of their network and systems, we cannot guarantee that their security
measures will prevent third-party "hackers" from illegally obtaining this
information.
