Privacy Policy

PetPAC has adopted this online privacy policy for its Web site.

Collection of Personal Information

Put simply, the PetPAC Web site only collects contact information, such as your name, address, phone number, E-mail address or similar information during your visit if you choose to provide it. This sort of personal information is gathered -- only at your choosing -- when you request to receive updates about news, issues, and events, correspond with us through our site, or make a contribution.

This site does not ask for or knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. To improve Web server performance, protect against intrusion, and to determine the usefulness of some content, visits to this Web-site are logged. This recorded information includes your IP address (an indication of your location on the Internet). The recorded data is not linked to contact information, such as your name, address or telephone number.

Like many Web sites, some portions of the PetPAC Web site make use of short strings of text known as "cookies" to help you move around our Web site more easily. Cookies may be stored and managed by your Web browser software. If you want to know when a Web site attempts to place cookies on your computer, or to prevent it from happening, you can set your browser to warn you when a Web site attempts to place a cookie on your computer. (Each browser is different, so check your browser's cookie preferences.) If you chose not to accept cookies from this site, you may be unable to take advantage of some of its features.

Use and Disclosure of Information

The information you provide may be made available to the appropriate members of the PetPAC so that they may help respond to your message or request.

When you subscribe to an e-mail list on this Web site, you will be provided with information about the process of unsubscribing and changing your subscription information.

If you make a contribution to PetPAC by credit or debit card, the credit or debit card information will be disclosed to the necessary financial institutions for transaction processing purposes.

PetPAC may share personal information provided through this Web site to third-parties. Because PetPAC may work closely with other groups, the organization may share some information with those groups that may lawfully accept such information.

Security

We recognize the importance of security for all personally-identifiable information collected through our Web site. We take steps to protect against the loss, misuse, or unauthorized alteration of personally-identifiable information collected through this Web site. In the event we request or transmit sensitive information, such as credit card information, we use industry standard, secure socket layer ("SSL") encryption.
