HBCUCONNECT.com is committed to
safeguarding your privacy online. We only use your personal information
to help us to improve our services to you, to provide you with products
you have requested, to inform you about additional products or services
that may be of interest to you, and to provide you with a member newsletter.
How is your information stored
and protected?
We protect your account information by placing it on the secure portion
of our Web site. That's why you have to enter a unique Member Name (email
address) and Password each time you want to access your HBCUCONNECT.com
account. Your Password should never be shared with anyone.
The personal files
that you store in your HBCUCONNECT.com account and other information
you provide when you register for the HBCUCONNECT.com service are maintained
in a secure environment that is inaccessible to the public.
What information does HBCUCONNECT.com
collect about you and how is it used?
HBCUCONNECT.com collects information
in several ways from different parts of our Web site. Some personal
information is gathered when you visit HBCUCONNECT.com, including your
Internet address and the site from which you visited. If you choose
to become an HBCUCONNECT.com member, during registration HBCUCONNECT.com
asks for your name, e-mail address, phone number, school name, claim
to fame, most memorable moment, current whereabouts. The more information
you volunteer (and the more accurate it is), the better we are able
to customize your experience. Once you register you are no longer anonymous
to HBCUCONNECT.com and are able to take full advantage of HBCUCONNECT.com's
many features.
In addition to registration we may
ask you for personal information at other times, including (but not
limited to) when you enter a contest or promotion sponsored by HBCUCONNECT.com
and/or our partners; and when you report a problem with one of our sites
or services. If you contact HBCUCONNECT.com we may keep a record of
that correspondence. HBCUCONNECT.com also asks members to complete
surveys.
We use all of the personal information
that we collect for research purposes to improve the HBCUCONNECT.com
service. In addition, we summarize information about our members that
is provided to advertisers and partners. Our partners and advertisers
use this summary information to provide more relevant information and
offers to our members who choose to receive such offers and information.
From time to time, we make our member e-mail or address list available to other
reputable partner organizations whose products or services we think you might
find interesting or beneficial.
Wherever HBCUCONNECT.com collects personal information
we make an effort to include a link to this Privacy Policy on that page.
Your Opt out choices
If, at any time, you wish
to stop receiving information from HBCUCONNECT.com, or to have your
name and other personal information removed from our list, please let
us know by sending us an e-mail request using our
online contact form or
