What information do we collect? How do
we use it?
When you request information from us or enter into
a transaction with us (registering for an event,
buying a product, or seeking information), we may
need to know specific information in order to process
your request. Our site's forms may require you to
give us contact information (like your name, e-mail
and address).
When you order products or services from our site,
we need to know your name, e-mail address, mailing
address, credit card number, and expiration date.
This allows us to process and fulfill your order
and to notify you of your order status. For more
details, see the section below about online security.
We may use the contact information from these registration,
order and survey forms to send you information about
mesothelioma and other programs or events of the
Mesothelioma Applied Research Foundation (Meso Foundation).
You may opt-out of receiving future mailings. See
the choice/opt-out section below.
We also collect anonymous, non-identifiable information
about visitors. When you visit our site, our server
automatically records your domain (service provider),
operating system and web browser type/version, as
well as the time and date of your visit on a particular
page. The information automatically recorded by
our server is used only for statistical purposes
so that we can manage our site and better serve
our visitors. Our server does not and cannot record
identifiable information such as your e-mail address.
Cookies
"Cookies" are small pieces of information
that are stored by your browser on your computer's
hard drive. Our cookies do not contain any personally
identifying information. Most web browsers automatically
accept cookies, but you can usually adjust your
browser to prevent them. This could limit your ability
to use certain features on our site, however.
Our site uses cookies to uniquely identify users'
machines so that we can monitor site usage, traffic
and trends. Cookies also may be used for features
such as keeping track of the contents of a shopping
cart or helping to deliver more personalized content.
Online Security
When you are asked to provide personal, private,
and/or financial information (such as a credit card
number), we use state-of-the-art security to safeguard
your data. The secure server software, SSL (secure
sockets layer), encrypts or encodes all information
you enter before it is sent to us. Furthermore,
all of the customer transactional data we collect
is protected against unauthorized access with the
use of digital certificates. Digital certificates
for the Meso Foundation are issued by Equifax Secure
Inc., a trusted provider. To learn more about our
online security, simply click the "security"
icon (usually a padlock) at the bottom of your browser
window.
The Meso Foundation does not sell, trade, rent
or otherwise disclose your personal information
to others outside the Foundation.
Choice/Opt-Out
Our site provides users the opportunity to opt-out
of receiving communications from the Meso Foundation.
To request that you not receive particular communications,
please send an e-mail to info@curemeso.org. Please
allow up to five business days for your request
to be fulfilled.
