CSSN is committed to respecting and protecting your privacy and wants you to feel secure when visiting our site and providing information to us. In order to provide you with relevant information & respond to your requests, we sometimes request that you provide us with information about yourself.
We have prepared this Privacy Notice to inform you of the information we gather and how it is used.
What information do we gather?
In general, you may visit this website without identifying yourself or revealing any personal information. CSSN collects domain information from your visit to customize and improve your experience on our website.
This website may collect certain information from your visit, including the date and time of your access, the pages you have accessed, the name of the Internet Service Provider and the Internet Protocol (IP) address by which you are accessing the Internet, and the Internet address from which you linked to our site, if applicable. We use this information to better understand how our website is being used so that we can improve its quality and make it more beneficial to our users.
Some portions of this website may request that you give us information about yourself, from which we are able to identify you, such as your name, email or other address. Some of the ways in which we may collect information from you are:
• Event registrations

Information Requested from Children
We take our responsibilities to our younger visitors seriously. In addition to the steps we take to safeguard the privacy and integrity of personal information submitted by adults, we adhere to the following principles and practices regarding personal information requested from children under 13 years old.
We will not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (such as full name, home address, phone number, etc.). The only instance on our site where an email address will be gathered will be through the online Question & Answer forum, when the child writes a question to us. We will only use their email address to reply to their question, and will not use it to send information or marketing materials to them for any reason.
If, at any time, a parent wishes their child’s email information removed, we will promptly remove such information from our database.
If you have any comments or questions on policies related to children's data or about our commitment to protecting your and your children's privacy, please contact our office.
How do we use the information we gather?
When we collect information about you, it is our intention to tell you why we are asking for the information and what we intend to do with it. You will have the option of not providing the information, in which case you may still be able to access other portions of this website, although you may not be able to access certain programs or services.
The information we collect about you or your computer will be used to operate our website and to provide customer support, respond to your requests or process any transactions you have authorized. It may also be used to verify your identity, send you information or contact you in relation to a CSSN product or service that you are using or that we believe may be of interest to you.
Will we share this information with third parties?
We will not share this information with third parties, unless we have specifically indicated this at the time you provide us the information and you agree to us sharing this information
CSSN may disclose information it has collected about you on the website if required to do so by law or when necessary in order to protect the rights of CSSN or its employees.
What about data security?
CSSN's intent is to strictly protect the security of your personal information; honor your choice for its intended use; and carefully protect your data from loss, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure, alteration, or destruction. We have taken appropriate steps to safeguard and secure information we collect online, including the use of encryption when collecting or transferring sensitive data such as credit card information.
However, you should always take into consideration that the internet is an open forum and that data may flow across networks with little or no security measures, and therefore such information may be accessed by people other than those you intended to access it.
Can you update and/or amend the personal information you have provided?
You are entitled to know whether we hold information about you and, if we do (subject to certain limitations), to have access to that information and have it corrected if it is inaccurate or out of date.

The CSSN website contains links to other websites. CSSN is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such websites.
