Privacy statement
SEATA takes your privacy seriously.
Because we gather certain types of
information about our users, we want to
help you understand the terms and
conditions surrounding the collection

privacy policy discloses the types of
information we gather, how we use it,
and how to correct or change it.

What anonymous information does SEATA
collect?
Your Internet browser has a feature
called “cookies” which stores small
amounts of data on your computer about
your visit to our site. However, cookies
tell us nothing about who you are unless
you specifically give us personally
identifiable information. You do not
need to have cookies turned on to visit
www.seata.org. In addition, you may elect
not to allow cookies to be collected by
selecting certain options on your
browser.
SEATA also automatically receives and
records information from our servers and
from your browser, including your IP

the page you requested.
We may use tracking technologies in a
variety of ways, including:
- keeping count of return visits to our site

How does SEATA use the information?
SEATA may use your information to process
transactions and to alert you to new
information, products and services,
events and other opportunities. We may
from time to time make your contact
information available to other reputable
organizations whose products or services
we think you might find of interest.
Additionally, we may use tracking
information to determine how much
interest a page generates overall based
on aggregate user demographics and
traffic patterns to those pages. This
helps us continue to better understand
our users and their needs.
4.
Is my use of the site secure?
We use industry-standard encryption
technologies when transferring and
receiving your information.
Additionally, we implement commercially
reasonable security measures at our
physical facilities to protect against
loss or misuse of your information.
5.
What are my options?
Users who would rather not provide the
user data requested by our membership
application process or provide the
required log in information do not need
to join or log in to the site. You can
still view some of the content and use
some of the services offered by our site
without being a member of SEATA. We also
give users the choice to opt not to
provide certain personal information
when joining.

How will I know if the privacy policy is
changed?
Any modifications to our privacy policy
will be reflected first in this notice

material change in our privacy
practices, we will indicate on our site
that our privacy practices have changed

manner materially different from that
stated at the time of collection, we
will send affected users written notice
of the change.
