De Anza Alumni Community Privacy Policy

The De Anza High School Alumni Community has created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate its firm commitment to privacy and to describe the information-gathering and dissemination practices for the Web site.

This Web site may disclose personal information when required by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary in order to conform to the edicts of the law or comply with a legal process involving the Web site.


Cookies

This Web site uses cookies to recognize you and allow you to automatically log in without re-entering your user name and password each time you visit our site. The cookies are encrypted and do not save any personally identifiable information (see the Personally Identifiable Information section below) about you, such as your user name, password or e-mail address. If cookies are disabled in your browser, you can still use the site but you will be required to enter your password each time you visit.


Personally Identifiable Information

This site's registration form requires you to provide your full name, e-mail address, password, gender, city, state, country and zip code. You may also choose to provide optional details, such as nick name, birthday, occupation, company, spouse's name, photos, ICQ number, personal Web page or personal comments. You may update any of this information at any time by accessing your profile by clicking the "Edit Your Account" link in the navigation menu. You may opt out of receiving e-mail updates from us (see the "Choice/Opt-Out" section below).


Personal Profile

Your Personal Profile features information you wish to share with other site members. Only people who have joined this site can view other members' Personal Profiles.

The following information is automatically displayed if you have provided the information:

• The city, state and country where you currently reside
• Your occupation
• Your educational degree(s)
• Your occupation
• The name of the company for which you work
• Your spouse's name

Credit Card Transactions

Some features of this site enable credit card transactions. These features are completely voluntary to members. They include the purchasing of tickets or merchandise through event stores or donations through the site. The operators of this site would like to assure you that measures have been taken to make such transactions secure for its members.

This site utilizes the services of an independent and globally-respected third party - PayPal. PayPal enables any business or consumer with an email address to securely, conveniently, and cost-effectively send and receive payments online. Their network builds on the existing financial infrastructure of bank accounts and credit cards to create a global, real-time payment solution. They deliver a product ideally suited for small businesses, online merchants, individuals and others currently underserved by traditional payment mechanisms. 

This Web site guarantees that every transaction will be 100 percent safe. This means you are not responsible for unauthorized transactions posted to your credit card that occur as a result of submitting a credit card number to this site. PayPal will handle and encrypt all of your personal information including name, address, and credit card number to prevent unauthorized access as the information travels over the Internet.

Under the Fair Credit Billing Act, your bank cannot hold you liable for more than $50.00 of fraudulent charges. If your bank does hold you liable for any of this $50.00, this site will cover the entire liability for you, up to the full $50.00. This site will cover this liability only if the unauthorized use of your credit card resulted through no fault of your own from transactions made at this site while using the secure server.

This is a community site that is based primarily on member input. This site cannot guarantee the accuracy of information presented. However, anyone demonstrated to have engaged in fraudulent behavior may be subject to (but not limited to) loss of privileges as a member as well as face prosecution to the fullest extent of the law.

Additional Communication

In some cases, it may be necessary to request specific contact information from you, such as a postal address or telephone number. The site does not store that information.

The site does not pass this additional contact information to third parties.
