Hispanic CREO's Privacy Policy

Your privacy on the Internet is important to us. As part of the operation and customization feature of Hispanic CREO’s web site ("hcreo.org"), we gather certain types of information from users, and we would like to explain the types of information we gather, what we do with them, and how to correct or change the information.

Information Collected by hcreo.org

hcreo.org collects two types of information from users: personal data such as zip code, email address and demographic information; and aggregated data such as information about traffic patterns on hcreo.org.


Aggregated Information

Aggregated information, such as which pages users visit, is collected through various means. One of these ways is through an IP address, a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the Web. When you request a page from hcreo.org, our servers log your IP address. Hcreo.org does not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable, so although your session will be logged, your session will remain anonymous to us.


Use of Cookies

hcreo.org uses cookies to automate the process of logging on to certain areas of the site. The hcreo.org cookie is a small data file stored on your computer that contains a single, randomly assigned user ID number. By recognizing this ID number, hcreo.org can automatically provide you with the personalized content for which you requested. Cookies can neither read any other files on your computer, nor damage your computer. Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies. If you'd prefer, you can set your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent.


Use of Information Collected by hcreo.org

hcreo.org uses both the personal and aggregated information we collect for multiple purposes. The information is used to improve the content of the site, to customize the content and/or layout of the site for each individual user, and if requested, to provide information services by email to the user. After registration, users will receive a single email message confirming registration. Hispanic CREO will never disclose your personally identifiable information to a third party unless required to do so by court order, law or governmental agency.

Information Security at hcreo.org

Hispanic CREO employees understand the need for user privacy and hcreo.org has appointed a privacy policy administrator to monitor privacy practices. Access to user data is strictly limited and can only be accessed by specific individuals who have the necessary username and password combination. A log is maintained to record who has accessed the data. This log is checked at least weekly for possible security breaches.

Children and Privacy

Hispanic CREO encourages parents and guardians to spend time with their children online and to be fully familiar with the sites visited by their children. In general, hcreo.org will not contain content that is reasonably considered unsuitable for children.

Links to Other Sites

It is important to note that hcreo.org contains links to sites other than hcreo.org, and that those sites may not follow the same privacy policies as hcreo.org.


Changes to the Privacy Policy

Hispanic CREO reserves the right to change the policy on use of information collected. Any changes in policy will be noted in a revised privacy policy statement and will be posted at least 30 days prior to implementation. You may direct any privacy policy questions to info@hcreo.org.
