We use requested demographic information from Subscribing Organizations and Members to help us attract sponsors, advertisers and partners and to offer the most useful products, services and information. However, the demographic information will be distributed to these sponsors, advertisers, partners and any other third parties only in aggregate form unless the Subscribing Organization or Member is specifically notified to the contrary and given an opportunity to elect not to transmit personally identifiable information or receive such special service, product, discount or other information. Personal Information that a Subscribing Organization or Member chooses to transmit or allow to be transferred to another party will be subject to the privacy policies of that party.

  4. SECURITY OF INFORMATION

    Subscribing Organization’s and Member’s 8xpand information and 8xpand profile are password-protected so that only they have access to this identifiable information. Subscribing Organizations and Members may edit their 8xpand information and 8xpand profile by using their 8xpand ID and password. We recommend that Subscribing Organizations and Members do not divulge their passwords to anyone. 8xpand will never ask Subscribing Organizations or Members for their password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited email. It is the responsibility of Subscribing Organizations or Members to sign out of 8xpand account and close their browser window when they have finished their work. This is to ensure that others cannot access Subscribing Organizations and Members account information and correspondence if they share a computer with someone else or are using a computer in a public place like a library or Internet cafe. As a global company, 8xpand has users all over the world. When Subscribing Organizations and Members give 8xpand identifiable information, this information may be sent electronically to servers outside of the country where Subscribing Organizations and Members originally entered the information, such as to the United States or other countries. In addition, this information may be used, stored and processed outside of the country where Subscribing Organizations and Members entered this information.

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect Subscribing Organizations and Members information, 8xpand cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information Subscribing Organizations and Members transmit to us or from our online products or services, and they do so at their own risk. Once we receive Subscribing Organizations’ and Members’ transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems. We have taken measures to protect user-information once it is received by the site, including but not limited to the following: limited access by employees, servers and data stored in a secured location, security software where appropriate and cost-effective.
