By accessing this Web site, you consent to the collection, usage, and storage of your personal information by us in the manner described below.

How Personal Information is Collected and Used

Information is collected in two ways, directly and indirectly. We directly collect Personal Information from you when you submit an online form through our Web site or send an e-mail to us requesting information or assistance. If we collect Personal Information from you at any other time on our site, we state that Personal Information is being collected at that time and it is always a voluntary submission.

Due to the open nature of the Internet, Cougle Commission requests that no unsolicited proprietary or other confidential information be sent to it through the Web site. Cougle Commission does not accept unauthorized idea submissions outside of established business relationships. Any such information supplied through the Web site will be deemed to be nonconfidential.

Persons who supply us with their e-mail addresses or any other personal contact information online may receive e-mail or telephone contact from us for assistance, such as in response to queries from potential clients or in the employee recruitment process. Personal Information is used only by Cougle Commission.

Cougle Commission will not sell, rent, or trade personal information you submit to any third party. For example, we do not sell your e-mail address or your name and personal demographic information to mass marketers or advertisers. The Cougle Commission Web site does not contain or accept advertising of any kind, such as banner ads or other promotional intrusions.

Information is collected indirectly through the technology common to all Web sites. When you enter a URL, your browser requests a page from our server. At that time, the server automatically logs certain nonidentifiable information, such as time, date, browser type, and IP address. We study this aggregated data in our Internet access logs to help us tailor content toward your interests and needs. For instance, to determine the usefulness of a particular Web site feature, we may analyze collective traffic by visitors to this portion of our site. This collective data contains no personally identifiable information and is used to help us operate and enhance our site and services.

We have established and maintain reasonable procedures to protect the confidentiality, security, and integrity of your Personal Information. Our security measures are designed to protect the loss, misuse, or alteration of information under our control.

Your choice to disclose Personal Information in an e-mail submission or online form is voluntary. We cannot fully ensure that your private communications and other Personal Information will not be inadvertently disclosed to third parties. For example, although we take every precaution to maintain the security of our Web site and servers, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications. At the discretion of Cougle Commission, we may choose to disclose Personal Information or the content of an e-mail message to law enforcement, government officials, or other investigative personnel that we believe is necessary or appropriate in order to investigate or resolve possible problems or inquiries.
