Your privacy on the Internet is important to us. As part of the operation and customization feature of PENSCO Trust's web site ("PENSCO Trust.com"), 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 PENSCO Trust
PENSCO Trust collects two types of information from users: personal data such as zip code, email address and demographic information that are collected for email subscriptions or PENSCO Trust events; and aggregated data such as information about traffic patterns on PENSCO Trust.com (for example, how many users log on to PENSCO Trust.com on a daily basis).
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. Web servers, the computers that "serve up" Web pages, automatically identify your computer by its IP address. When you request a page from PENSCO Trust.com, our servers log your IP address. PENSCO Trust.com does not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable, so although your session will be logged, your session will remain anonymous to us. PENSCO Trust.com collects IP addresses for the purposes of system administration only.
Use of Cookies
heritage.org uses cookies to automate the process of logging on to certain areas of the site. The heritage.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, heritage.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 PENSCO Trust
PENSCO Trust.com 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. The PENSCO Trust 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 PENSCO Trust
PENSCO Trust employees understand the need for user privacy and PENSCO Trust.com 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.
Children and Privacy
The PENSCO Trust 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, PENSCO Trust.com will not contain content that is reasonably considered unsuitable for children.
Links to Other Sites
It is important to note that PENSCO Trust.com contains links to sites other than PENSCO Trust.com, and that those sites may not follow the same privacy policies as PENSCO Trust.com. For instance, a link in the "Education" section of PENSCO Trust.com will take you away from PENSCOTrust.com to an entirely different site.
Changes to the Privacy Policy
The PENSCO Trust 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 or info@PENSCO.com.
