Respecting Your Privacy

CDFHS respects your right to privacy. Any information that you provide to us through this Website is used by us for the sole purpose of servicing you better.

How is the information used?

We collect personal information only when necessary to provide a service to our Website users and visitors. Any personal information voluntarily provided by visitors to our Website, including personal information from online forms and e-mail, will be used only for the purpose stated on the web page from which it was collected and may be shared with our committee to respond to, or process the e-mail or online form. CDFHS gathers Website statistics for its own use to help us improve our Website, but these statistics are aggregated and do not have any personally identifying information. CDFHS does not lease, sell, trade or give any information you may provide to us to third parties.

How is your information protected?

If you choose to provide us with personal information about yourself through an e-mail message, order, feedback form, survey, or the like, we generally maintain the information only as long as needed to respond to your request, or to fulfil the intended purpose of the communication. If we should change our privacy policies, those changes will be posted on this page. By using the Website, you agree in advance to accept such changes.

We recommend that any communications you send us via this Website, including comments, suggestions and questions, do not contain information that is private or confidential.

Who we share your data with

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email. We do not share data with any other entity.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where your data is sent

Visitor comments and messages left may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

However, CDFHS makes no representation or warranty that the information on our Website is accurate or current, and in no event shall CDFHS be liable for any damages resulting from reliance on the information contained in this Website, including damages arising from inaccuracies, omissions or errors, or arising out of the use or inability to use this Website.
