Tobacco Survivors United (TSU) is committed to protecting the
privacy of visitors to its website.
For
website visitors who are reading, printing or downloading
information such as brochures, press releases or reports from this
site, no personal identifying information will be collected or
revealed about them. This web site does not use "cookies", which
could potentially allow a web site to track information about
browsing habits during multiple visits to a web site.
For
visitors who wish to receive a response to an inquiry, information
such as name and address will be required so TSU staff can respond.
That personal information will not be used for purposes other than
to respond to the inquiry without permission.
TSU
routinely collects data on website activity on an aggregate,
anonymous basis, which means no personally identifiable information
is associated with the data gathered. To collect this aggregate
data, such information as visitor's Internet service provider, the
date and time of the visit, the link that led to the TSU site may be
collected. This data is used to help improve site content and
overall usage. The aggregate information is available to TSU staff
and public. In other limited circumstances, TSU may be required by
law to disclose information in response to various freedom of
information and other requests from private individuals or
governmental bodies.
TSU
only collects personal, identifiable information, including specific
email addresses, from site visitors, when site visitors voluntarily
and explicitly provide it. This information is collected when site
visitors use TSU email and respond to online surveys, and
enrollment. Surveys conducted on TSU websites will not require
visitors' names or medical records information.
TSU
staff may use information submitted by website users through email
in carrying out their official duties and responsibilities and to
respond to inquiries. There may be instances where information from
visitor email may be sent to the person or company about whom the
user is complaining, or to other governmental agencies involved in
the administration and enforcement of the matter. Email sent to TSU
should not be considered completely secure and private
communications. Email to TSU, like most non-encrypted Internet email
communications, may be accessed and viewed without visitors'
knowledge or permission while in transit to TSU. Visitors who have
confidential information to communicate may want to contact TSU by
telephone at the numbers provided for various locations on TSU sites
or by surface mail. TSU encourages visitors not to disclose any
personal identification information in electronic format other than
basic contact information. TSU discourages the submission of
personal identifier information including social security number.
