YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS:

SALTLAW.org has created this privacy policy to demonstrate our commitment to protecting your profile information and informing you about how we handle it. This privacy policy only applies to transactions and activities in which you engage and data gathered and or entered on the SALTLAW.org website. Please review this privacy policy periodically as we may modify it from time to time. This privacy policy was last revised on August 17, 2009. Each time you visit the Site or provide SALT with information, by doing so you are accepting the practices described in this privacy policy at that time.

Your IP Address

Each time you visit the Site, we automatically collect your IP address and the web page from which you came. In order to administer and optimize the Site for you and to diagnose problems with our Site, we use your IP address to help identify you and to gather broad demographic information about you.

Cookies

SALTLAW.org uses cookies to keep track of your transactions and other activity on the Site and to enhance your experience on the Site. We also use cookies to save your password, and to save other personal information so you do not have to re-enter it each time you visit the Site. SALTLAW.org does not save credit card numbers.  If you wish to disable these cookies, the "help" portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how. However, if you set your browser to disable cookies, you may not be able to access certain areas or features of the Site.

Information We Collect From You

In order to operate SALTLAW.org and provide you with the capacity to join on-line, make contributions, and to register for events, we may collect profile information (i.e. information that could be used to contact you such as full name, postal address, phone number and email address), financial information (e.g. passwords and credit card numbers), demographic information (e.g. zip code, work address, law school affiliation), and a user name from you. 

Information Other Web Sites Collect From You 

On the Site, we place links to other web sites operated by other parties. When you click on these links and visit these other web sites, you need to be aware that we do not control these other web sites or their business practices, and that our privacy policy does not apply to these other web sites. Consequently, the operators of these other web sites may collect different kinds of information about you, and may use and disclose that information in different ways than we would if it were collected on the Site. We encourage you to review their privacy policies and remind you that we will not be responsible for their actions.

How We Use Personal Information

To process membership, contributions, and event registration transactions on SALTLAW.org, we may share your profile information with our agents, representatives, contractors and service providers so they can provide us with support services such as authorization of credit card transactions, and co-hosts of events. We require these entities not to use your information for any other purpose. 

SALTLAW.org and SALT do not sell email lists of members or former members.  However, in some instances, SALT does sell its mailing list to law schools and legal publishers.  

Our Security Precautions, Location of Information 

SALTLAW.org has security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. Your information may be transferred to and maintained on computer networks which may be located outside of the state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction in which you reside, and the countries in which these computer networks are located may not have privacy laws as protective as the laws in your country.

Our Commitment To Data Security

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online. 

How You Can Access and Update Your Email Preferences, Personal Information and Public/Private Designations

When you provide profile information to the Site, you must enter a user name. You may also be given the chance to designate certain of your profile information and other information as "public" or "private" and to opt-out of receiving certain communications from us and third parties, as described above. We also give you the opportunity to opt-out of certain communications and/or modify profile information you have provided to us and selecting those portions of your profile you would like to update. Please be aware that it may take several hours for the changes you make to your public information or your public/private information designations to take affect on the public areas of the Site. We thank you for your patience.
