This Policy is effective on September 1, 2008.
For each visitor to our website, our Web server automatically recognizes only the visitor's domain name, but not the e-mail address.
We collect only the domain name, but not the e-mail address of visitors to our website, aggregate information on which pages visitors access or visit, information volunteered by visitors, such as survey information and/or site registrations, and payment information (e.g., credit card numbers and billing addresses).
Information that is automatically collected is used only for the purposes of analysis of website visitation, and to improve the content of our Web page. Information volunteered by the visitor is used, when consent for such usage is granted, to notify visitors about updates to our website, or to notify visitors about upcoming events and programs. This information is not shared with other organizations for commercial purposes. It may be disclosed when legally required to do so, at the request of governmental authorities conducting an investigation, to verify or enforce compliance with the policies governing our website and applicable laws or to protect against misuse or unauthorized use of our website.
With respect to cookies: We use cookies to store visitors’ preferences, and to record session information, such as items that visitors add to their shopping cart in the Museum's online shop.
You may use our website without registering or submitting any personally identifiable information. However, in order to have access to certain personalized features of the site, or to receive the Museum’s newsletter or other requested program information, you must register.
If you decide to register, you will be asked to provide personally identifiable information that will include a user name and password and email address. We store this information, along with your other preferences, on a secured server so that you need not reenter it when you return to the site. If you select the "Remember Me" feature when registering, the site will display your login information upon returning to the site.
If at the time of registration you have elected to receive newsletters, other e-mails, or communications from the Museum, but have subsequently changed your mind, you may opt out by clicking on the "Unsubscribe" link at the bottom of these communications.
The Museum does not share any information gathered online with commercial organizations without prior consent to do so from the visitor.
Persons who supply us with their telephone numbers online will only receive telephone contact from us with information regarding orders they have placed online.
With respect to ad servers: We do not partner with or have special relationships with any ad server companies.
We may use visitor information for new, unanticipated uses not previously disclosed in our privacy notice. If our information practices change at some time in the future we will contact you directly before we use your data for these new purposes to notify you of the policy change and to provide you with the ability to opt out of these new uses.
With respect to security: We have appropriate security measures in place in our physical facilities to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of information that we have collected from you at our site.
