What information does NATAS-NCCB collect and how is personal information used once it is collected?

Data that NATAS-NCCB collects is used only to help NATAS-NCCB better serve its members. It is NATAS-NCCB’s policy to collect and store only personal information that its members and visitors knowingly provide. Information collected online is defined as being either anonymous or personally identifiable.

Only aggregate data-such as the number of hits per page, browsers and platform types-is collected. Aggregate data is only used for internal and marketing purposes and does not provide any personally identifying information.

Personally identifiable information refers to data that tells NATAS-NCCB specifically who the visitor is. To gain access to members-only resources and personalization features on the NATAS-NCCB website, members are asked to provide some limited information. This data is submitted voluntarily. NATAS-NCCB asks users to provide their name and member number for Login purposes, and to verify contact information for convention registrations, other events, and programs. Those users of Emmy Express should see the Emmy Express Privacy Policy for additional information.

The database storing NATAS-NCCB membership contact information is a record that is held in trust. Its use for commercial or solicitation purposes is denied to all. Non-members will be denied requests for lists of members.

What are “cookies” and how does NATAS-NCCB use them?

A cookie is a small text file containing a unique identification number that is transferred from a website to the hard drive of a user’s computer.

A cookie will not provide personally identifiable information about users, such as their name and address. The use of cookies is now an industry standard and cookies are currently used on most major websites. Most web browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. If users prefer, they can reset their browser to notify them when they have received a cookie. They can also set their browser to refuse to accept cookies altogether. NATAS-NCCB uses cookies only to facilitate automated activity such as to store and track passwords. Cookies are not used to disseminate significant information about users over the Internet or to analyze any information that users have knowingly or unknowingly provided. NATAS-NCCB does not disclose credit card account information provided by its members.
