If you have questions or concerns regarding this statement, you should contact us.

Protection of Customer Information

We understand the importance of privacy to our customers and visitors to our Web site. For many years, our policy has been to treat what we learn about our customers as confidential. For example, we will not give or sell confidential or personal information about our customer to any third party not affiliated with their transaction, except as required by law or as necessary to the Wireless LAN Association (WLANA) services to the customer.

As we collect and use information about our customers, we may contract with vendors to assist us in processing that information. These vendors are required to maintain the confidentiality of the information and are restricted from using the information for any purpose other than helping to provide WLANA services to our customers.

Some of the information collected by WLANA is personal data or data which relates to an identifiable person. Examples of personal data are names, addresses, e-mail addresses, credit card numbers and telephone numbers. We never sell information to third parties that could be used to specifically identify an individual customer or group of customers. Anonymous data, with all names, addresses and other personally identifiable information removed, is sometimes shared with third parties.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your e-mail address.

Links to Other Sites

WLANA provides links to external sites as a convenience to the user. The inclusion of any link does not imply WLANA endorsement of the external site company, its web site, or the products and services it promotes and sells. WLANA is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such Web sites.

Security and Integrity of Information

We treat our data as assets that must be protected against loss and unauthorized access. We employ information security techniques to appropriately protect confidential information from unauthorized access by users inside and outside the company. Access to customer information is limited to those employees who have a legitimate business need for that information.

WLANA Internet sites are currently located in the United States. WLANA Internet sites, and their supporting systems, employ generally accepted information security techniques such as firewalls, access control procedures and cryptography to appropriately protect confidential information from unauthorized access.

The WLANA Web Site at www.wlana.org

The following, indented paragraphs describe our commitment to the protection of personal information as it applies to the WLANA Web site at www.wlana.org.

What Information We Collect And How We Will Use It Users can visit most areas of the WLANA Web site without revealing who they are or providing any information about themselves. However, some of our interactive services require that users identify themselves in order to enable the interactive function. We may ask users to provide some personal information in these situations. Web Surveys From time to time, we include survey forms on our Web site asking users for contact and demographic information (such as postal code, age or size of company). We use the responses from the surveys to better understand our customer's needs and to create web sites that respond to their interests. Customers may opt-out of participating in follow-up surveys. WLANA will not disclose survey response information to companies or individuals outside WLANA with two exceptions: Anonymized data, with all names, addresses and other personally identifiable information removed. To vendors who are required to maintain the confidentiality of the information and are restricted from using the information for any purpose other than helping to provide services to WLANA customers. Consent To Receive Promotional Material WLANA allows users to opt out of receiving promotional material from us. The 'opt-out' feature applies to promotional material sent to our customers. All newsletters include an opt-out link at the bottom of the e-mail. IP Addresses The WLANA Web site collects IP addresses for system administration, security, and statistical analysis purposes. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to a computer whenever it is connected to the Internet. We log these addresses and analyze them to understand where requests originate so that we can provide the most efficient service, enhance security, ensure appropriate usage and produce traffic volume statistics. Cookies Cookies are small text files that a Web site can send to a user's browser for storage on the hard drive. Cookies can make use of the Web easier by saving status and preferences about a web site. Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies but users can change the setting to refuse cookies or to be alerted when cookies are being sent.
