Privacy Policy

The only personal information APFA.org collects is what you voluntarily provide through online forms, surveys, or other communication with us such as live chat. This information may include, but is not limited to, your name, e-mail address, and employee number. The information you provide is used only to communicate with you (if you grant permission to do so) more effectively. Other information you submit through online forms, surveys, or other communication such as live chat is kept confidential. Your information is never sold, used for advertising, or shared with unaffiliated third parties, such as mass marketers. Your personal information will never be disclosed without notice unless APFA is required to do so by law or in order to comply with legal process served on APFA or the site.

APFA.org provides personal information on a secure and confidential basis to third parties that have contracted with APFA to offer services that it cannot offer on its own, such as sending e-mail alerts, or processing credit card payment of dues. These third-party providers are required to protect the privacy of APFA members and site visitors. They must safeguard your information and can use it only to complete the purchases or tasks you’ve authorized.

APFA.org also collects non-identifying information to help monitor and analyze usage patterns and web traffic, including your IP address, the name of your internet service provider, the browser you are using, the website that referred you, the pages you visited while on the site and the date and time of your visits. We use this information on an aggregate basis to generate statistics that help us improve the usefulness of the site and maintain its quality. APFA.org uses Google Analytics to collect and process this data. You may visit Google’s website at www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/ to learn more about its privacy practices.

In accordance with the Children’s Online Protection Privacy Act (COPPA), APFA.org does not knowingly collect, use or distribute personal information on children to any third party.
