Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important to the National Children’s Advocacy Center (NCAC). This statement describes the NCAC’s privacy practices for its website, including what type of information is gathered and tracked, how the information is used, and with whom the information is shared.

Personal Information

You can visit www.nationalcac.org without revealing any information about yourself. However, to access certain portions of the website, you may have to submit information such as user-id and password, or to access some services we provide, you may have to provide personal information such as your name, address, and e-mail address.

To access our transaction programs, we may ask you for your address and/or credit card information. When registering for conferences, trainings, webinars or workshops via the NCAC website or through the services hosted by another service provider, we may also ask you to choose a security question to answer (such as your mother’s maiden name or your pet’s name). This required information is necessary for us to process transactions, issue a new password if you forget or lose your password, protect you against credit card fraud, and to contact you should the need arise in administering your account.

Information security and quality

We intend to protect the quality and integrity of your personally identifiable information. We have implemented appropriate physical, technical, and organizational measures, such as using industry accepted encryption for transmission of credit card information, to help keep your information secure, accurate, current, and complete. When you submit sensitive information via the NCAC website, your information is protected both online and offline.

We will maintain the information for our records unless and until you ask us to delete this information.

Analytics

We may use third-party Service Providers to monitor and analyze the use of our website, such as Google Analytics. We automatically collect certain information about your device, including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies that are installed on your device. Additionally, as you browse our website, we collect information about the individual web pages or products that you view, what websites or search terms referred you to our website, and information about how you interact with our website.

Google Analytics is a web analytics service offered by Google that tracks and reports website traffic. Google uses the data collected to track and monitor the use of our Service. This data is shared by Google Analytics with other Google services.
