Online Privacy Statement (3/20/2007)
The Pinon Canyon Expansion Opposition Coalition ("PCEOC") is committed to protecting the personal information that you provide to us when using the PCEOC Site. This Online Privacy Statement describes how we treat all user data collected during your visit to the PCEOC Site, both anonymous data and personally-identifying data.
We may occasionally update this Statement. We will post any changes on this Web page, so be sure to check back periodically. If we do make material changes, we will post a notice on our home page that the Online Privacy Statement has been modified and provide a link to the revised Online Privacy Statement. Any information that you submit after a change has been posted will be subject to the new provisions.
User Data We Collect
We collect two types of user data: (1) anonymous data that is automatically collected from all visitors to the PCEOC Site; and (2) personally-identifiable data that you voluntarily submit to us (described below under "Personal Data").
Anonymous Data. We automatically collect Internet Protocol addresses and domain names through our server and through cookies. (See the section on Cookies below for more information.) We also track the number and frequency of hits per page on an aggregate basis.
Personal Data. We may collect Personal Data that you voluntarily provide, such as your name and postal address, phone number, e-mail address, and similar information, when you participate in certain activities on the PCEOC Site, including (but not limited to) when you:
- make an additional contribution to support the PCEOC;
- sign up for our PCEOC e-mail network
- send correspondence to your government representative through the PCEOC Site;
- participate in one of our online surveys; or
- participate in any activity that requires your Personal Data.
If you join the PCEOC or make a donation to the PCEOC from a Web site link, we may also identify the source of that link, so that we can evaluate what content is persuading Web users to contribute to the PCEOC.
How We Use The Data We Collect
We use anonymous data to identify the source of user traffic (for example, umich.edu, or aol.com), but we are not able to use this data to identify individual users. We use data on which sections of the PCEOC site are most visited, so that we can evaluate the popularity of our different Web pages and continue to improve the PCEOC Site. We do not link any anonymous data with the Personal Data you provide to us.
We use your Personal Data for various purposes:
- To fulfill the request for which you specifically provided the data;
- To send you our e-mail confirmation of your petition signature;
- To offer you other ways to support the PCEOC, including, in some limited cases, solicitations for additional contributions;
- To confirm your contribution to the PCEOC.
The PCEOC Site is hosted by servers in the United States. Accordingly, if you are located outside of the United States, the Personal Data you provide to us will be transferred to the United States. By submitting your Personal Data, you consent to its transfer and storage in the United States and its use in accordance with the purposes for which it was originally collected (see below regarding third-party sharing of Personal Data from non-U.S. residents).
Third-Party Sharing
We do not share your Personal Data with third-party service providers. Any information submitted will be held private for the use of confirming actual petition signatures.
Except as described in this Online Privacy Statement, we will not share your Personal Data with any third party unless we first notify you and offer you an appropriate choice to consent to such further use, for example, through an opt-out or opt-in request.
Children
We do not knowingly collect information from children under the age of 13.
Security
The Personal Data we collect about you is stored on a secure, password protected server. We use industry-standard encryption technologies with respect to the receipt and transfer of Personal Data you submit to us on the PCEOC Site and only authorized personnel have access to your information. Nevertheless, despite our best efforts, no transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
