The Dataw Historic Foundation places a high priority on protecting your privacy. This privacy policy serves to demonstrate the foundation’s firm commitment to the privacy of our members and website users. This policy explains what types of information are collected by the Dataw Historic Foundation’s website and how it is used.

What Personally Identifiable Information is Collected

Dataw Historic Foundation members that renew their memberships and individuals that join voluntarily provide us with contact information (such as name, mailing address, and email address). We may use this information for specific, limited purposes. Visitors that request tours through our contact form voluntarily provide us with contact information (such as name, mailing address, and email address or phone number.) We use this information only for the specific reason intended, i.e., to arrange a tour.

IP addresses

The Dataw Historic Foundation uses your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, to administer www.datawhistory.org, and for statistical metrics used to track website visitor traffic.

Cookies

www.datawhistory.org uses “cookie” messages to automatically help provide better services. They remind us who you are and your preferences for our website based on what you’ve done and told us before. The “cookie” is placed on your computer and read when you come back to our website. Cookies let us take you to the information and features that particularly interest you. They also allow us to track your usage of www.datawhistory.org, so we know which parts of our sites are most popular. You can reject cookies or cancel them by instructing your Web browser accordingly.

How Your Information May Be Used

We use your personal information to provide you with personalized service; to answer your requests; to process your membership application, etc. You may choose to opt-out at any time, which will cease all communications from us. We may also use your information to track visitors to our website. This lets us see which of our features are the most popular so we can better serve our users’ needs. It also gives us aggregate data about our traffic (not identifying you personally, but showing how many visitors used which features, for example) to improve the website’s utility.

Email Privacy

The Dataw Historic Foundation does not provide, sell, or rent email addresses to anyone outside the foundation.
