Automatically Collected Information

Similar to other websites, SCCS may collect some information automatically from you and store it in log files. This collection may include but is not limited to: your domain name and host for Internet access, the Internet address of the site from which you came, the date and time of your access, your computer’s IP address and information about its operating system, browser, and host, the date and time you access the Service and the pages you visit. SCCS collects this non- identifying information in order to help diagnose problems and to administer the Service. SCCS also use it to help identify you and to gather broad demographic information. SCCS may automatically collect information using various mechanisms, including but not limited to cookies and pixels.

 

Cookies

SCCS uses "cookies" on this Site. A cookie is a piece of data stored on a site visitor's hard drive to help us improve your access to our Site and identify repeat visitors to the SCCS Site. For instance, when SCCS uses a cookie to identify you, you would not have to log in a password more than once, thereby saving time while on SCCS Site. Cookies can also enable SCCS to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Site. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information on SCCS Site.

 

“Pixels”

These are tiny graphics with a unique identifier that are used to track the online movements of web users. Unlike cookies, which are stored on a computer’s hard drive, pixels are small graphics that are about the size of the period at the end of the sentence that are embedded invisibly on web pages or in HTML-based emails. Our third-party analytics providers may place pixels on the Site that track what other websites you visit (both before and after visiting the Site). SCCS third-party analytics providers use information obtained from pixels to help SCCS improve our business and the Service. SCCS do not control the use of pixels by third parties.

 

Third Party Analytics Providers

SCCS use third parties to help us operate and improve the Site. In doing so, SCCS may share with these third parties non-personally identifiable information about users’ use of the Service. These third-party providers also use cookies. SCCS uses third party analytics providers, such as Google Analytics, to provide SCCS with general demographic and interest-level information about SCCS’s users and to help create a better user experience. SCCS does not control information collected by third parties and are not responsible for their use of that information.

 

Google Analytics uses cookies and pixels in order to collect demographic and interest-level information and usage information from users that visit the Service, including but not limited to information about the pages where users enter and exit the Service and what pages users view on the Service, time spent, browser, operating system, and IP address. Cookies and pixels allow

Google to recognize a user when a user visits the Service and when the user visits other websites. Google uses the information it collects from the Service and other websites to share with us and other website operators’ information about users including, but not limited to, age range, gender, geographic regions, general interests, and details about devices used to visit websites and

purchase items. SCCS takes reasonable measures to prevent linking of information we receive from Google with any of your personally identifiable information. For more information regarding Google’s use of cookies and collection and use of information see the Google Privacy Policy. To opt out of Google Analytics, please visit the Google Analytics Opt-Out Page to learn about opting out and installing the appropriate browser add-on.


“Do Not Track” Settings. Because this tracks website usage information as described above,

your selection of the “Do Not Track” option provided by your browser may not have any effect on SCCS’S collection of certain information. The only way to completely “opt out” of the collection of information through cookies or other tracking technologies is to actively manage

the settings on your browser to delete and disable cookies and other tracking/recording tools. However, getting a “Do Not Track” signal to work as you might want is difficult. Using browsers as an example, not all tracking technologies can be controlled by browsers; unique aspects of your browser might be recognizable even if you disable a tracking technology; not all settings will necessarily last or be effective; even if a setting is effective for one purpose, data still may be collected for another; and even if one website observes a “Do Not Track” signal, that website may not be able to control other websites.


 

Sharing

SCCS uses an outside credit card processing companies for any gifts or event registrations paid via this Site. These companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes beyond processing your payment.

 

Links

This Site may contain links to third party websites (“Linked Sites”), including social media features such as Facebook, LinkedIn, or Twitter buttons. SCCS is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of any Linked Sites and Linked Sites may collect personally identifiable information from you that is not subject to SCCS control. The data collection practices of Linked sites will be governed by that site’s privacy policy.

 

Surveys & Contests

From time-to-time our Site requests information via surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and you may choose whether or not to participate and therefore disclose this information. Information requested may include contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code, age level). Contact information will be used to notify the winners and award prizes. Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this Site.
