EUFAR PRIVACY POLICY

This privacy policy covers EUFAR’s treatment of personal information. Please review the EUFAR Privacy Policy so that you can understand your options in using the EUFAR website. Use of this website signifies your agreement to the Privacy Policy.

What personal information does EUFAR collect? You can visit the EUFAR website without identifying who you are (that is signing-in), or revealing personally identifiable information. If you do provide personal information when signing up for a service, EUFAR will not sell, trade, or give away your information.

General use information. EUFAR receives and stores certain types of information whenever you interact with the website. For example, EUFAR maintains web activity log files such as the number of pages requested, time spent on a page, and result sets from search queries. EUFAR extracts and aggregates information from these log files to gauge and improve the effectiveness of the website and services. EUFAR does not link this general use information to other personally identifiable information.

From time to time, EUFAR may share information with outside contractors, auditors, consultants, and others hired by EUFAR to assist in carrying out financial or operational activities. EUFAR informs these parties about safeguarding personal information, and requires them to use it only for an authorised purpose consistent with this privacy policy.

Cookies. Parts of the EUFAR website may use cookies to improve your interaction with the site or service. EUFAR does not use cookies for tracking purposes except when used in conjunction with a service that requires keeping track of a session, or actions, (e.g. a service allowing a user to see their previous search queries) and you have agreed to this when signing up to that service.

Signing up for services. In some instances, EUFAR may request information through an enrollment process for a web service, website analysis, survey, or event registration. To enroll, you may voluntarily supply personal information. EUFAR shall use the information, and may share the information with event planners, only as described in the enrolment process. Contact the web site operator to correct any information you submit.

From time to time EUFAR will conduct surveys of visitors to the site to obtain demographic information. Such information will be compiled and shared only within EUFAR.

Security. EUFAR maintains all personal data with technical, administrative, and physical safeguards to protect against loss, unauthorised access, destruction, misuse, modification, and improper use. No computer system or information can be completely protected against every possible hazard, but EUFAR provides reasonable and appropriate controls to protect personal information against foreseeable hazards.

Public Forums. EUFAR maintains a number of public email lists and forums for use by interested individuals. Some are open for subscription and use; others are moderated where a list or forum moderator may limit subscription and posting access. In each case, users can subscribe and unsubscribe from these areas at any time. Contact the website operator to correct any information you submit.

Please note that any information that you post to a public bulletin board or chat room is available to all persons accessing that site. Unsubscribe from a list or forum will not remove any name, email address or information that was part of any previous posting from any archive of these lists or forums.

Legal Requirements. EUFAR may disclose information in response to legal process, such as a court order or subpoena.

Children’s Guidelines. Students are advised to consult with their parents before giving any personal information online.

Third Party Sites. EUFAR is not responsible for the privacy practices of non-EUFAR websites to which the EUFAR website may link.
