Privacy Policy

DCLY takes your privacy seriously.  Please read the following privacy statement to understand how this site protects and gathers your information, and if you have any questions, please email info@dcly.org

DCLY is committed to your privacy and will not share any personal information with any third party except as set forth in this policy.

 

What this Privacy Policy Covers

This privacy policy covers the website DCLY.org. Other sites linked to from this website have their own privacy statements which can be viewed on those sites.

Please be aware that DCLY sponsors, advertisers, co-branded websites or websites that have links on our site may collect personally identifiable information about you on their websites. The information practices of those parties are not covered by this privacy statement.  

 

Gathering of Information

Voluntary Submission
DCLY will not collect personally identifying information about you unless you specifically give it to us.  For example, if you are interested in receiving more information from us, or in volunteering for DCLY, you will provide us with contact information, such as your name and e-mail address. You always have the option not to provide us with contact information.

Cookies
A cookie is a data file that certain websites write to your computer’s hard drive when you visit such sites. A cookie file can contain information, such as a user identification code, that the site uses to track the pages you have visited. We use this data on an anonymous basis and we do not correlate this information with personal data of any user.

Most website browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually change your browser settings to display a warning before accepting a cookie, or to refuse all cookies. However, if you choose to disable the receipt of cookies from our website, you may not be able to use certain features of the site.

Browser Level Information
DCLY Web servers automatically collect information about a site user’s IP address, browser type and the URL that you just came from (whether this URL is on the website or not) and which URL you next go to (whether this URL is on the website or not) by reading this information from the user’s browser (information provided by every user’s browser). This information is collected in a database and used—in an aggregated, anonymous manner—in our internal analysis of traffic patterns within our website. This information is automatically logged by most websites.

To Provide Interactive Communications From DCLY.org
If you indicate that you are interested in receiving emails from us, and provide your email address, we will provide you with interactive communications like our email newsletter. Such interactive communications are provided only to those users who have expressly provided us with their permission to receive them.

To Provide Communications From Third Parties
We respect the privacy of our users and shall not disclose or distribute our user list to any third party, nor shall it permit anyone else to do so. 

As Required By Law
DCLY may disclose your personal information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on DCLY or to protect and defend the rights or property of DCLY.

Security
Your information is stored on DCLY’s servers located in the United States. We use procedural and technical safeguards to protect your personal information against loss or theft as well as unauthorized access and disclosure to protect your privacy. We treat data as an asset that must be protected against loss and unauthorized access. We employ many different security techniques to protect such data from unauthorized access by users inside and outside the company. However, “perfect security” does not exist on the Internet.

Privacy of Children
Kids under 13: Do not send any information about yourself to us—including information such as your name, address, or e-mail address. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. In the event that we learn we have collected any personal information from a child under the age of 13 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information from our database as quickly as possible. 

How to Contact Us
If you have any questions regarding our privacy statement, please feel free to contact us by e-mail at info@dcly.org. We read every message submitted and try to reply promptly to every one.
