Privacy Policy

The Clark County Education Association (CCEA); the union of teaching professionals, is committed to protecting your privacy and has created this notice to explain how we use information that you may provide while visiting our website and/or visiting the CCEA pages or accounts on third-party websites (such as Facebook and Twitter), and to show our firm commitment to Internet privacy. CCEA may modify this policy from time to time, so we encourage you to check this page when revisiting this website. In this policy, CCEA or “we” refers to CCEA staff, board members, attorneys, volunteers and consultants, all of whom will keep confidential any information received, as explained in this privacy policy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for this website and for information that we receive from third-party websites. The type and amount of information received depends on how you use the sites.

Website Usage/Information Collection

When you visit the CCEA website, we automatically obtain information from you about the name of your Internet service provider, the browser and type of computer you are using, the website that referred you to us, the pages you request and the date and time of those requests. We use this information on an aggregate basis to generate statistics and measure site activity to improve the usefulness of the site to our visitors. For example, we use this information to track which pages are most popular among visitors as a whole. We do not track the pages you or any individual visitor may look at during a visit to our site and we do not collect any other information without your knowledge and permission. We do not collect or store personally identifiable information, such as your name, mailing address, e-mail address or phone number, unless you provide that information.

Collection of Personally Identifiable Information

CCEA provides web forms so you may provide your contact information to engage in CCEA activities such as online activism (i.e., contact the Legislature and Congress) or to correspond with CCEA. Any information we collect, such as your name, mailing address, e-mail address, type of request you are making, and any additional information you provide, is collected and stored by CCEA. The information is used to fulfill your request and track aggregate information about usage of these features. CCEA makes every effort to ensure the secure collection and transmission of your sensitive information using industry accepted data collection and encryption methodologies, such as SSL (Secure Sockets Layers) and CAPTCHA encryption codes. Our website and services are not directed to persons under age 13. On all areas of our website, we seek to collect personally-identifiable information only from adults; we do not knowingly collect or store any personally-identifiable information from anyone under age 13. If we become aware that someone under age 13 has submitted any information to us without prior, verifiable, parental consent, we will delete the user’s information.

Collection of Personally Identifiable Information from Third-Party Websites

Third-party websites (such as Facebook and Twitter) generally have their own privacy policies that apply to any information that you share on such websites. CCEA is not responsible for how information is collected and shared by third-party sites. This privacy policy only applies to information provided to CCEA through your use of third-party sites. When you provide information to CCEA through CCEA pages or accounts on third-party websites, that information may be shared with CCEA. For example, when you digitally sign Twitter petitions sponsored by CCEA, and elect to share your name and email address with the CCEA, Twitter will send us your name, twitter handle, and e-mail address on the account you have with Twitter. Any information we collect, including your name, twitter handle, e-mail address, type of request you are making, and any additional information you may provide, is collected and stored by CCEA, and may be shared as described below. The information is used to fulfill your request and track aggregate information about usage of these features. CCEA makes every effort to ensure the secure collection and transmission of your sensitive information using industry accepted data collection and encryption methodologies, such as SSL (Secure Sockets Layers) and CAPTCHA encryption codes. Our accounts, pages, and services offered on third-party websites are not directed at persons under age 13. We seek to collect personally-identifiable information only from adults; we do not knowingly collect or store any personally-identifiable information from anyone under age 13. If we become aware that someone under age 13 has submitted any information to us without prior, verifiable, parental consent, we will delete the user’s information.

CCEA’s Sharing of Personally Identifiable Information

CCEA may share personal information with other labor organizations if we believe you would be interested in receiving communications from these organizations. CCEA may also use your personal information to provide information to you through third-party websites, such as through Facebook. We also provide personal information to third parties on a completely confidential basis to enable a third party to perform certain tasks, such as maintain a membership database or send email alerts and/or newsletters, on our behalf. These third party providers are committed to protecting the privacy of our members and subscribers, and will not utilize your information for any other purpose but to provide the services which we contract for. CCEA website will not post your personal contact information, including e-mail address, street address and phone numbers, without your consent. Without such consent, website staff will withhold posting personal contact information for that individual. Finally, while CCEA will object to all requests for access to information about users of our sites that we believe to be improper, we may disclose information when we have a good faith belief that doing so is required by law, such as pursuant to a subpoena or judicial or administrative order. If we are required by law to disclose your information, we will try to provide you with notice (unless prohibited), to give you an opportunity to object to the request. If you have provided us with an email address, we will attempt to contact you by email if you have given us an email address or by regular mail if you have given us a mailing address.

Cookies

A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user’s hard drive containing information about the user. CCEA website uses a cookie for measuring aggregate web statistics, including number of monthly visitors, number of repeat visitors, most popular WebPages and other information. CCEA will also use cookies to facilitate your online visit by maintaining data that you provide for online activism activities so that you will not need to resubmit certain information. CCEA does not use cookies to track what specific pages an individual site visitor views.

Security

This site has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. We use CAPTCHA and SSL (Secure Sockets Layers) encryption codes to protect the transmission of information you submit to us when you use our secure online forms. You are on a secure page when the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer become locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when you are just “surfing.” If you send us an e-mail, you should know that e-mail is not necessarily secure against interception. So, if your communication includes sensitive information like your bank account, charge card, or social security number, and you prefer not to use one of our secure online forms, contact us by mail or by telephone rather than by e-mail.
