SELinux Symposium Privacy Statement
SELinux Symposium, LLC (the Symposium or "we") knows that you care how
information about you is used and shared, and we appreciate your trust that we
will do so in a sensible manner. This Privacy Statement describes the
information we will collect about you and how we will use that information. By
accessing this site, you are consenting to the information collection and use
practices described in this Privacy Statement.
This Privacy Statement was last updated on December 1, 2005.
Information Collection
When you register with the Symposium, the personal information we collect may
include your name, title, employer or organization name, work e-mail, work phone,
work or home address, information about your job function, information about
your company/employer, and credit card information. We also may ask other
questions for statistical purposes. All of the foregoing is referred to in this
Privacy Statement as your Personal Information. The Symposium retains the
Personal Information collected in the course of registration and will share it
only as described below.
Information Use
Personal Information
We use your Personal Information primarily to
register you for the SELinux Symposium and associated tutorials. The Symposium
may from time to time use other companies to provide limited services related to
your registration, such as credit card processing, answering customer questions,
and conducting follow-up surveys, and other similar services. We will only
provide those companies the Personal Information they need to deliver the
service they have been contracted to provide. They are required to maintain the
confidentiality of the information and are prohibited from using that
information for any other purpose.
We also use your Personal Information to improve site content; to respond to
visitors' interests, needs and preferences; to track participation demographics,
and, potentially, to develop new programs and services. To accomplish these
goals, the information collected by the Symposium may be used to produce written
assessment reports, intended only for internal use by the Symposium (including
use by Symposium affiliates, such as the parent and subsidiaries of the
Symposium). In addition, from time to time the Symposium may aggregate the
statistical information collected to create reports to be shared with
unaffiliated third parties involved with the Symposium (such as sponsors) but
such reports will not include any individual Personal Information.
Except as required by law or as described in the Disclaimer below, we will not
otherwise share your Personal Information without your prior consent.
Cookies
Cookies are files that contain information created by a web
server that can be stored on your machine for use either during a particular
session ("session" cookie) or for future use ("persistent" cookie). The
Symposium may use both session and persistent cookies to facilitate, track and
limit automated activity, and to assist in the collection of site visitation
statistics. Cookies are not used to disseminate significant information about
users over the Internet. If you decline the attachment of any cookie, you may
not have access to the full benefits of the site.
Log Files
Like most standard web site servers, we use log files. This
includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, domain name, browser type, internet
service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp,
and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's
movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for
aggregate use. IP addresses, etc. are not linked to personally identifiable
information.
Communications from the Site
Relating to Current and Future Symposia: We communicate with all symposium
registrants via email, postal mail, and by other means in connection present and
future symposia, and you agree to such communication when you submit your
registration. You may also receive information on future symposia and programs
offered by the Symposium and its affiliates, but you will not receive product
and service solicitations from unaffiliated third parties without your consent.
Out of respect for the privacy of our users, we offer you the option to not
receive commercial solicitations from us. In the case of commercial emails, you
should follow the opt-out mechanism set forth in the email communication. For
other commercial communications, you should notify us as stated in the Contact
Information section below. Please note, however, that you will not be able to
opt-out of email communication relating to a symposium in which you are
registered, as such communication is considered an essential part of your
registration.
Providing Customer Service: Visitors requiring assistance in the
use of this site should contact the Symposium by clicking on the "Contact Us"
link on the side of the home page. Personal Information collected from you in
connection with service requests will only be used to respond to the request. In
regards to service requests, we reply via email or phone, in accordance with
your indicated preference, if any.

Symposium is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites that
we do not maintain. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site
and to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects
personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to
information collected by this web site.
Disclaimer
ALTHOUGH WE USE COMMERCIALLY REASONABLE EFFORTS TO PRESERVE USER PRIVACY, WE MAY
NEED TO DISCLOSE PERSONAL INFORMATION WHEN (I) REQUIRED BY LAW, SUCH AS WHERE WE
HAVE A GOOD-FAITH BELIEF THAT SUCH ACTION IS NECESSARY TO COMPLY WITH A CURRENT
JUDICIAL PROCEEDING, A COURT ORDER OR LEGAL PROCESS SERVED ON THE SYMPOSIUM; OR
(II) NECESSARY TO PROTECT AND DEFEND THE RIGHTS OR PROPERTY (INCLUDING WEB SITES)
OF THE SYMPOSIUM OR ITS AFFILIATES. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS PRIVACY
STATEMENT, IN NO OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES DO WE SHARE ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION WITH
ANY PARTNERS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, OR OTHER THIRD PARTIES. AS NOTED ABOVE, WE MAY
SHARE AGGREGATE DATA WITH UNAFFILIATED THIRD PARTIES WHEN WE CAN DO SO WITHOUT
SHARING PERSONAL INFORMATION THAT IS IDENTIFIABLE TO YOU.
Security
This web site takes commercially reasonable precautions to
protect our users' Personal Information. We use a variety of security
technologies and procedures to help protect Personal Information from
unauthorized access or disclosure. For example, we store Personal Information on
computer servers with limited access that are located in controlled facilities.
Additionally, when we transmit sensitive personal information (such as a credit
card number) over the Internet, we protect it through the use of encryption,
such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
Correcting/Updating/Deleting/Deactivating Personal Information
If your Personal Information changes (such as phone, email or postal address),
or if you no longer desire to receive communications from us, we provide a way
to correct, update or delete/deactivate your Personal Information. Please email
our Customer Support at info@selinux-symposium.org to do this.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this
Privacy Statement and other places on our web site that we deem appropriate so
our users are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under
what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. We encourage you to periodically
review this Privacy Statement to stay informed about how we are helping to
protect the Personal Information we collect. Your continued use of this site
constitutes your agreement to any updates to this Privacy Statement.

for the Symposiums breach of this Privacy Statement. You may contact us as
