TAVMA values the relationship we have with our members. We are committed to responsible information handling practices. This privacy policy discloses how we collect, protect, use and share information gathered about you on our Web site. By visiting www.tavma.com, you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy. What Information Does TAVMA Collect? What we collect: We collect personal information such as your contact information (name, e-mail address), billing/shipping information (credit card number, mailing address), or your personal preferences. When submitting personal information on an online form, we will identify which fields are required in order to fulfill your request. When we collect information: We request personal information when you register for a TAVMA event, and communication via email. Does TAVMA Share The Information It Receives? Information about our members is important to our business and our ability to serve our customers. We do not sell this information to others. We share member information only as described below. TAVMA may need to share personal information with third parties in limited circumstances. For example, we may release personal information to third parties to perform services on our behalf such as: fulfilling customer’s requests, sending TAVMA marketing communications, delivering packages, sending regular mail and e-mail, or processing credit card payments. We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; protect the rights, property, or safety of our members. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. However, this does not include selling, renting, sharing, or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information from customers for commercial purposes in violation of the commitments set forth in this Privacy Policy. How Secure Is The Personal Information We Collect? Because your credit card security is a high priority, we have taken numerous steps to ensure that your payment information is processed confidentially, accurately and securely. The TAVMA Online Web site uses encryption technology, such as PGP Incription Software (PGP), to protect your credit card information during data transport. PGP encrypts ordering information such as your name, address, and credit card number. Although we cannot guarantee against any loss, misuse, unauthorized disclosure, alteration or destruction of data, we take reasonable precautions to prevent such unfortunate occurrences. TAVMA cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us by e-mail and you do so at your own risk. It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a share computer. Does TAVMA Collect Information From Children? We are committed to protecting the privacy of children. We will not knowingly or intentionally collect personal information online from children under the age of 18. Do I Have Choices Regarding How My Information Is Used? If your information is currently being used to send you marketing communications, you can opt-out at any time. To opt-out of receiving marketing material from TAVMA:
Will This Privacy Policy Change? Because our Web site will continue to implement new technologies and improve the services and features we provide, this policy is subject to change. If there are changes or additions to this Privacy Policy, we will post those changes here or in other formats we deem acceptable, so that you will always know what information we collect online or offline, how we use it and what choices you have. If we change our information practices or this Privacy Policy in such a way that your personal information may be used or shared in a different manner, we will give you the choice to opt-out of having your information used or shared in that new manner.
