Our Commitment To Privacy

Your privacy is important to us.  To better protect your privacy, we provide this notice explaining our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used.  To make this notice easy to find, we make it available on our homepage and at every point where personally identifiable information may be requested.

The Information We Collect:

This notice applies to all information collected or submitted on the Gaithersburg-Germantown Chamber of Commerce website.  On some pages, you can order products or services, register for an event, make requests for information, and register to receive materials.  The types of personal information collected at these pages are:

Name

Address
Company affiliation

Email address

Telephone number
Fax Number

Credit/Debit Card Information

 

The Way We Use Information:

We use the information you provide about yourself when registering for an event or placing an order only to register you for that event or to complete the order.  We do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete that order or event registration and to refer potential clients to your business.  We publish directory addresses, telephone numbers, and e-mail addresses in our print and website member directories.  We also use the information to process program changes to notify program participants about program changes.

We use return email addresses to answer the emails we receive and to notify registered persons of event schedule information.  If you choose, we may use e-mail addresses as a means of notifying you of Chamber events.  Such addresses are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with outside parties, unless they are directory addresses.

You can register with our website if you would like to receive notices about future events as well as updates on our new products and services. Information you submit on our website will not be used for this purpose if you opt-out when registering for mailings.

We use non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our website, products, and services.  For example, we may tell a developer  that X number of individuals visited a certain area on our website, or that Y number of men and Z number of women filled out our registration form, but we would not disclose anything that could be used to identify those individuals.

Finally, we never use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt-out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.

Gaithersburg-Germantown Chamber of Commerce uses WebTrends Live to analyze traffic to this web site. WebTrends Live does not create individual profiles for visitors. Unlike some tracking services WebTrends Live does not have a database of individual profiles for each visitor. WebTrends Live only collects aggregate data.

Our Commitment To Children's Privacy:

Protecting the privacy of the very young is especially important. For that reason, we never collect or maintain information at our website from those we actually know are under 13, and no part of our website is structured to attract anyone under 13.
