IP Addresses

ChickTech may use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, to administer chicktech.org, and for statistical metrics used to track website visitor traffic.

Cookies

chicktech.org uses “cookie” messages to automatically help provide better services. They remind us who you are and your preferences for our website based on what you’ve done and told us before. The “cookie” is placed in your computer and is read when you come back to our website. Cookies let us take you to the information and features you’re particularly interested in. They also let us track your usage of chicktech.org, so we know which parts of our sites are most popular. You can reject cookies or delete them by changing your browser’s settings. Visit https://www.allaboutcookies.org/manage-cookies/clear-cookies-installed.html to learn how to change your browser’s cookie settings.

  • Provide you with personalized service
  • Send periodic email communications to you
  • Respond to your inquiries, requests, or questions
  • Process your event registration or purchase

You may choose to opt-out at any time, which will cease all communications from us.

We may also use your information to track how our website is accessed and used. This allows us to see which of our features are the most popular so we can better serve our users’ needs. It also lets us provide aggregate data about our traffic (not including any identifying information, showing how many visitors used which features, for example) to outside parties.

How We Protect Your Privacy and Information

We implement a variety of security measures on our website to maintain the safety of your personal information when you enter, submit, or access your personal information.

ChickTech does not provide, sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personally identifiable information to anyone outside the organization unless specifically stated. Users will always be allowed to opt out of this usage before providing their information to us.

This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential.

We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; enforce our site policies; or protect ours or others’ rights, property, or safety.
