This pri­va­cy state­ment (“Pri­va­cy State­ment”) (avail­able here) gov­erns your access to and use of the ASUG Web­site, ASUG microsites, Jive, ASUG social media and all third-par­ty reg­is­tra­tion sys­tems (col­lec­tive­ly, the ​“Ser­vices”) and the pur­chase of any of our prod­ucts (includ­ing events) (“Prod­ucts”), and describes how ASUG col­lects, uses, and shares your infor­ma­tion when you use and inter­act with our Web­site and Services.

ACKNOWL­EDGE­MENT AND CONSENT

By vis­it­ing our Web­site or pur­chas­ing or using our Ser­vices in any man­ner, you acknowl­edge that you accept the terms, prac­tices and poli­cies described in this State­ment (and as updat­ed from time to time), and you here­by con­sent that we may col­lect, use, and share your infor­ma­tion as described here­in. If you do not agree with our poli­cies and prac­tices, your choice is not to use our Web­site or our Ser­vices. Your use of the Web­site and our Ser­vices is at all times sub­ject to our Terms of Use (avail­able here and as updat­ed from time to time (the ​“Terms”)), which is incor­po­rat­ed by ref­er­ence here­in. Any cap­i­tal­ized terms we use in this Pri­va­cy State­ment with­out defin­ing them have the def­i­n­i­tions giv­en to them in the Terms.

It does not apply to third-par­ty web­sites, appli­ca­tions, or services.

CHANGES TO OUR PRI­VA­CY STATEMENT

We are con­stant­ly work­ing to improve our Web­site and Ser­vices, and we may need to change this Pri­va­cy State­ment from time to time as well. Our cur­rent Pri­va­cy State­ment will always be on our Web­site and any updates will be effec­tive upon post­ing. You are respon­si­ble for peri­od­i­cal­ly check­ing our Web­site for updates. Under cer­tain cir­cum­stances, we may also elect to noti­fy reg­is­tered Users of changes or updates to this Pri­va­cy State­ment by addi­tion­al means, such as post­ing a notice on the Web­site or by send­ing you an email, but you should not rely on receiv­ing such addi­tion­al notice

ELI­GI­BIL­I­TY TO USE THE SERVICES/MINORS

ASUG’s Ser­vices are not direct­ed to per­sons under the age of 18. You may not pur­chase or use our Prod­ucts or Ser­vices if you are under the age of 18. We do not know­ing­ly col­lect, solic­it or main­tain Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion from any­one under the age of 18 or know­ing­ly allow such per­sons to become a mem­ber or reg­is­ter for our Ser­vices. If you are under 18, please do not send any Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion about your­self (such as your name, address, tele­phone num­ber, or email address) to us. In the event that we learn that we have col­lect­ed Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion from a child under age 18 with­out ver­i­fi­ca­tion of parental con­sent, we will use com­mer­cial­ly rea­son­able efforts to delete that infor­ma­tion from our database.

PER­SON­AL INFORMATION

This Pri­va­cy State­ment cov­ers our treat­ment of per­son­al­ly iden­ti­fi­able infor­ma­tion. ​“Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion” means any unen­crypt­ed or non-dei­den­ti­fied infor­ma­tion that iden­ti­fies, relates to, describes, is rea­son­ably capa­ble of being asso­ci­at­ed with, or could rea­son­ably be linked with a par­tic­u­lar per­son such as, but not lim­it­ed to, your name, mail­ing address, email address, tele­phone num­ber, etc. Please see addi­tion­al infor­ma­tion below on the par­tic­u­lar infor­ma­tion we may col­lect. For this Pri­va­cy State­ment the def­i­n­i­tion of ​“Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion” is the def­i­n­i­tion under the state, coun­try, or oth­er law applic­a­ble to the per­son whose data is col­lect­ed; how­ev­er, for Cal­i­for­nia res­i­dents only, ​“Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion” shall have the def­i­n­i­tion as set forth in the Cal­i­for­nia Con­sumer Pri­va­cy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”). Please see the sec­tion below enti­tled ​“Pri­va­cy Notice for Cal­i­for­nia Res­i­dents” for more information.

Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion does not include your Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion that has been dei­den­ti­fied, pseu­do­nymized, anonymized, aggre­gat­ed, and/​or oth­er­wise processed so as to be uniden­ti­fi­able in such a way that the data can no longer be attrib­uted to a spe­cif­ic indi­vid­ual (by rea­son­able means) with­out the use of addi­tion­al infor­ma­tion, and where such addi­tion­al infor­ma­tion is kept sep­a­rate and under ade­quate secu­ri­ty to pre­vent unau­tho­rized re-iden­ti­fi­ca­tion of a spe­cif­ic indi­vid­ual such that one could not, using rea­son­able efforts, link such infor­ma­tion back to a spe­cif­ic indi­vid­ual (col­lec­tive­ly, all of the fore­go­ing in this sen­tence being referred to as ​“De-Iden­ti­fied Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion”).

ASUG Account Infor­ma­tion: ASUG may require you to reg­is­ter for an account to use cer­tain Ser­vices (an ​“ASUG Account”). We do not require you reg­is­ter to use all our Ser­vices. How­ev­er, if you do reg­is­ter for Ser­vices offer­ing an ASUG Account, you will gain access to those areas and fea­tures of the Ser­vices that require reg­is­tra­tion. ASUG will col­lect cer­tain infor­ma­tion about you in con­nec­tion with your reg­is­tra­tion for your ASUG Account, which may include Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion Some of your ASUG Account infor­ma­tion may be dis­played pub­licly, e.g., user­name, name, and logins to Cham­pi­ons. You are not required to pro­vide your Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion; how­ev­er, if you choose to with­hold cer­tain Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion, we may not be able to pro­vide you with cer­tain Services.

Demo­graph­ic Infor­ma­tion: ASUG also col­lects anony­mous demo­graph­ic infor­ma­tion about Users of the Ser­vices, which is not unique to you, such as your ZIP code, age, gen­der, pref­er­ences, inter­ests, and favorites.

Web­casts: ASUG part­ners with third-par­ty spon­sors to pro­duce and dis­trib­ute web­casts and oth­er online con­tent for both ASUG mem­bers and non-mem­bers (“Web­casts”). When you reg­is­ter for a Web­cast, your reg­is­tra­tion infor­ma­tion, includ­ing your name and con­tact infor­ma­tion, may be shared with ASUG and our Web­cast spon­sor part­ners, whether or not you are an ASUG mem­ber. Users may opt-out of shar­ing their infor­ma­tion with ASUG’s third-par­ty Web­cast part­ners as part of the reg­is­tra­tion process or by fol­low­ing instruc­tions pro­vid­ed with Web­cast reg­is­tra­tion confirmations.

ASUG does not itself col­lect or main­tain your cred­it card or oth­er finan­cial account infor­ma­tion; this infor­ma­tion is han­dled for ASUG by our pay­ment pro­cess­ing Ser­vice Providers.

Form Infor­ma­tion: We may use web­forms to request cer­tain infor­ma­tion from you in order to per­form cer­tain Ser­vices, such as your gen­er­al loca­tion to assist you in locat­ing our Prod­ucts (e.g., mem­ber­ship con­tent, event access, spon­sor­ship, etc.), or your con­tact infor­ma­tion to assist with con­tacts or Ser­vice requests. This infor­ma­tion may include Per­son­al Information.

Cor­re­spon­dence Infor­ma­tion: If you become a mem­ber, email us, sub­scribe to our newslet­ters or mail­ing lists, or make pur­chas­es of our Ser­vices, we may keep your infor­ma­tion to respond to your requests, pro­vide the request­ed Prod­ucts or Ser­vices, and to pro­vide noti­fi­ca­tions or oth­er cor­re­spon­dences to you.

Please do not sub­mit any infor­ma­tion to us via a sup­port sub­mis­sion, includ­ing con­fi­den­tial or sen­si­tive infor­ma­tion that you do not wish for ASUG or our Ser­vice Providers to have access to or use in the future (pur­suant to this Pri­va­cy Statement).

Infor­ma­tion We Col­lect Automatically:

Cook­ies, Web Bea­cons, And Oth­er Track­ing Tech­nolo­gies: ASUG may keep track of how you use and inter­act with the Ser­vices through the use of cook­ies of var­i­ous types, web bea­cons, links, and oth­er track­ing tech­nolo­gies. We do this for the oper­a­tion of the Ser­vices, to main­tain the qual­i­ty of the Ser­vices, to help ana­lyze the use of and improve the Ser­vices, and to pro­vide gen­er­al sta­tis­tics regard­ing the use of the Ser­vices. Through these tech­nolo­gies, we may auto­mat­i­cal­ly col­lect infor­ma­tion about your use of the Ser­vices and oth­er online activ­i­ties, includ­ing our email cor­re­spon­dence, third-par­ty ser­vices, and client appli­ca­tions, and cer­tain online activ­i­ties after you leave the Web­site. We use cook­ies to deliv­er per­son­al­ized con­tent, to save you hav­ing to re-enter your pass­word repeat­ed­ly, to keep track of your shop­ping cart, and to tai­lor our infor­ma­tion offer­ings to how you and oth­ers use the Web­site. Some Ser­vices may not func­tion prop­er­ly if you dis­able cookies.

Links: ASUG may auto­mat­i­cal­ly col­lect infor­ma­tion relat­ed to links to third-par­ty web­sites, includ­ing refer­ring web­site address­es and links you may click to oth­er web­sites from the Ser­vices. Link infor­ma­tion is gen­er­al­ly only ana­lyzed on an aggre­gate basis. ASUG encour­ages you to review the pri­va­cy state­ments of com­pa­nies whose web­sites you choose to link to from ASUG so that you can under­stand how those web­sites col­lect, use, and share your infor­ma­tion. ASUG is not respon­si­ble for the con­tent on web­sites out­side of the ASUG Web­sites or the oper­a­tors’ use of your Per­son­al Information.

Unique Iden­ti­fiers: When you use or access the Web­site or the Ser­vices, we may access, col­lect, mon­i­tor, store on your device, and/​or remote­ly store one or more ​“Unique Iden­ti­fiers,” such as a uni­ver­sal­ly unique iden­ti­fi­er (also known as a UUID). A Unique Iden­ti­fi­er may remain on your device per­sis­tent­ly, to help you log in faster and enhance your nav­i­ga­tion through the Ser­vices. Some fea­tures of the Ser­vices may not func­tion prop­er­ly if use or avail­abil­i­ty of Unique Iden­ti­fiers is impaired or disabled.

Log File Infor­ma­tion: When you use our Ser­vices, we may receive log file infor­ma­tion such as your IP address, brows­er type, access times, domain names oper­at­ing sys­tem, the refer­ring web page(s), pages vis­it­ed, loca­tion, your mobile car­ri­er, device infor­ma­tion (includ­ing device and appli­ca­tion IDs), search terms, and cook­ie infor­ma­tion. We receive log file data when you inter­act with our Ser­vices, for exam­ple, when you vis­it our Web­site, sign into our Ser­vices, or inter­act with our email noti­fi­ca­tions. ASUG uses log file data to pro­vide, under­stand, and improve our Ser­vices, and to cus­tomize the con­tent we show you. ASUG may link this log file to oth­er infor­ma­tion ASUG col­lects about you via the Services.

Pub­lic Infor­ma­tion: ASUG may also col­lect infor­ma­tion about you from pub­licly avail­able sources. Infor­ma­tion you make pub­licly avail­able in any pub­lic or open forum, such as on a social net­work, may be con­sid­ered pub­lic infor­ma­tion for the pur­pos­es of this Pri­va­cy State­ment, and may be accessed and col­lect­ed by ASUG. Please be aware that any con­tent or infor­ma­tion you share with or pro­vide to third par­ties using or relat­ed to your use of the Ser­vices is nei­ther pri­vate nor con­fi­den­tial. ASUG is not respon­si­ble for any con­tent or infor­ma­tion you post or share with third par­ties. If you do not wish for cer­tain infor­ma­tion to be pub­lic, please do not share it.

You also may sub­mit infor­ma­tion, such as com­ments, reviews, tes­ti­mo­ni­als , etc., to be pub­lished or dis­played (“post­ed”) on pub­lic areas of the Web­site, or trans­mit­ted to oth­er users of the Web­site or third par­ties (col­lec­tive­ly, ​“Con­tent”). Your Con­tent is post­ed and trans­mit­ted to oth­ers at your own risk. We can­not con­trol the actions of oth­er users of the Web­site with whom you may choose to share your Con­tent. There­fore, we can­not and do not guar­an­tee that your Con­tent will not be viewed by unau­tho­rized per­sons. By post­ing any Con­tent or sub­mit­ting Con­tent for post­ing you agree to and do here­by grant us and our licen­sors, affil­i­ates, part­ners, suc­ces­sors and assigns, a nonex­clu­sive, per­pet­u­al, irrev­o­ca­ble, world­wide, sub­li­cens­able, trans­ferrable, roy­al­ty-free right and license to use, store, dis­play, pub­lish, trans­mit, trans­fer, dis­trib­ute, repro­duce, rearrange, edit, redact, mod­i­fy, aggre­gate, sum­ma­rize, adapt, cre­ate deriv­a­tive works of and pub­licly per­form the Con­tent that you post or oth­er­wise sub­mit to us for any pur­pose, in any form, medi­um, or tech­nol­o­gy now known or lat­er devel­oped (“Right to Use”). The Right to Use you grant us above also extends to any Con­tent that you have post­ed to our Face­book or oth­er social media account pages, or on oth­er web­sites, e.g., Google, Yelp, Trip Advi­sor, Insta­gram, etc.

Behav­ioral Track­ing: We also may use these tech­nolo­gies to col­lect infor­ma­tion about your online activ­i­ties over time and across third-par­ty web­sites or oth­er online ser­vices, or asso­ciate Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion with oth­er infor­ma­tion col­lect­ed in this manner.

Keystrokes/​Clicks: We or our Ser­vice Providers may keep track of and/​or col­lect the key­strokes and cur­sor move­ments of Web­site vis­i­tors before pur­chase of a Prod­uct or Ser­vice from our Web­site (and before we have any email address or oth­er infor­ma­tion about you (oth­er than IP address) which would specif­i­cal­ly iden­ti­fy you), but, this infor­ma­tion is anony­mous and, at the time of col­lec­tion, we do not direct­ly asso­ciate or attempt to asso­ciate this infor­ma­tion with you as an iden­ti­fi­able indi­vid­ual. If you sign up to receive our emails (e.g., through the pop­up box that appears) we then do have the abil­i­ty going for­ward to asso­ciate the key­stroke and cur­sor infor­ma­tion with the email address you pro­vide. We use this infor­ma­tion sole­ly for the pur­pose of improv­ing our Web­site to improve our cus­tomers’ user expe­ri­ence (e.g., improv­ing nav­i­ga­tion, read­abil­i­ty, etc.).

This prac­tice involves mak­ing auto­mat­ed deci­sions about you based on this infor­ma­tion in order to bet­ter enable us to tai­lor our inter­ac­tions with you to make them more rel­e­vant and inter­est­ing. You may object to our doing this at any time by con­tact­ing us (see Con­tact Information/​User Rights below).

We may use the infor­ma­tion we have col­lect­ed from you to enable us to dis­play adver­tise­ments to our adver­tis­ers’ tar­get audi­ences. Even though we do not dis­close your Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion for these pur­pos­es with­out your con­sent, if you click on or oth­er­wise inter­act with an adver­tise­ment, the adver­tis­er may assume that you meet its tar­get criteria.

Text Mes­sages: Our Ser­vices may include a Short Mes­sage Ser­vice (“SMS”) which may deliv­er up to two mes­sages per day to your wire­less device. We may use your infor­ma­tion to con­tact you about emer­gen­cies. You may remove your infor­ma­tion by reply­ing ​“STOP” to the SMS text mes­sage you received. After you send the SMS mes­sage ​“STOP” to us, we will send you an SMS mes­sage to con­firm that you have been unsub­scribed.

ASUG does dis­close Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion to third par­ties with­out your con­sent, except in the lim­it­ed cir­cum­stances described in this Pri­va­cy State­ment. ASUG may also dis­close infor­ma­tion about you in the fol­low­ing circumstances:

ASUG Per­son­nel: ASUG’s per­son­nel (includ­ing, but not lim­it­ed to, vol­un­teers) may have access to your infor­ma­tion as need­ed to pro­vide and oper­ate the Ser­vices in the nor­mal course of busi­ness. This includes infor­ma­tion regard­ing your use and inter­ac­tion with the Services.

Exter­nal Busi­ness Part­ners: ASUG may, from time to time, con­tact you on behalf of exter­nal busi­ness part­ners about an offer­ing of prod­ucts or ser­vices that may be of inter­est to you. Your Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion is not dis­closed to such partners.

Ser­vice Providers: ASUG works with var­i­ous orga­ni­za­tions and indi­vid­u­als to help pro­vide the Ser­vices to you (“Ser­vice Providers”), such as, but not lim­it­ed to, host­ing com­pa­nies, e‑commerce shop­ping web­site providers to pro­vide the online shops avail­able via the Ser­vices, pay­ment proces­sors to process pay­ments, and com­pa­nies pro­vid­ing ana­lyt­ics infor­ma­tion, e.g., Google Ana­lyt­ics. We may share your Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion with our Ser­vice Providers for the pur­pose of pro­vid­ing the Ser­vices. The infor­ma­tion we share to our Ser­vice Providers may include both infor­ma­tion you pro­vide to us and infor­ma­tion we col­lect about you, includ­ing Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion, Pay­ment Infor­ma­tion, infor­ma­tion from data col­lec­tion tools like cook­ies, web bea­cons, log files, Unique Iden­ti­fiers, and loca­tion data. ASUG takes rea­son­able steps to ensure that our Ser­vice Providers are oblig­at­ed to rea­son­ably pro­tect your infor­ma­tion on ASUG’s behalf. If ASUG becomes aware that a Ser­vice Provider is using or dis­clos­ing infor­ma­tion improp­er­ly, we will take com­mer­cial­ly rea­son­able steps to end or cor­rect such improp­er use or disclosure.

Spon­sors and Exhibitors: As part of an event reg­is­tra­tion you will have the oppor­tu­ni­ty to opt-in to per­mit the shar­ing of some of your Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion with com­pa­nies who spon­sor our events or who are event exhibitors, as part of the spon­sor­ship or exhibitor pack­age for which these com­pa­nies pay us a fee. These com­pa­nies may con­tact you about their prod­ucts and services.

Online Shops: ASUG works with third-par­ty Ser­vice Providers to oper­ate our online stores and han­dle pay­ment trans­ac­tions. When you click links such as ​“Shop” with­in our Ser­vices, you are redi­rect­ed to one of our third-par­ty Ser­vice Provider’s plat­forms to shop and com­plete pur­chas­es. ASUG does not itself col­lect or main­tain your cred­it card or oth­er finan­cial account infor­ma­tion; this infor­ma­tion is han­dled for ASUG by our Ser­vice Providers. Our Ser­vice Providers may share cer­tain infor­ma­tion they col­lect about you with us as part of your use of their ser­vices, such as infor­ma­tion about pur­chas­es made in con­nec­tion with ASUG’s Ser­vices. Please note you are sub­ject to the pri­va­cy poli­cies and terms and con­di­tions of our Ser­vice Providers, includ­ing when shop­ping for ASUG Prod­ucts or mak­ing dona­tions, the terms of which may dif­fer from those of ASUG for the Services.

Your Con­sent to Disclosure/​Transfer/​Sale of Your Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion: You con­sent to our dis­clo­sure of your Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion, De-Iden­ti­fied Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion, and oth­er infor­ma­tion you pro­vide to us (“Trans­ferred Infor­ma­tion”) to a poten­tial or actu­al buy­er or acquir­er of our com­pa­ny or oth­er suc­ces­sor for the pur­pose of con­sid­er­ing or under­go­ing a merg­er, divesti­ture, restruc­tur­ing, reor­ga­ni­za­tion, dis­so­lu­tion, change in con­trol, or sale or trans­fer of some or all of our assets (each of the fore­go­ing referred to as a ​“Trans­fer”), whether as a going con­cern or as part of bank­rupt­cy, liq­ui­da­tion or oth­er court pro­ceed­ing, in which Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion held by us is among the assets trans­ferred. You agree to and do here­by con­sent to (and shall not object to) our assign­ment, con­veyance, trans­fer, and/​or license (whether by con­tract, merg­er or oper­a­tion of law) as part of a Trans­fer, of any or all of our rights under this Pri­va­cy State­ment, our Terms and/​or any oth­er doc­u­ment or under­stand­ing, in whole or in part, in and to Trans­ferred Infor­ma­tion and your con­sents, with or with­out notice to you and with­out your fur­ther con­sent. We can­not make any rep­re­sen­ta­tions regard­ing the use or trans­fer of Trans­ferred Infor­ma­tion that we may have in the event of our bank­rupt­cy, reor­ga­ni­za­tion, insol­ven­cy, receiver­ship, or an assign­ment for the ben­e­fit of cred­i­tors.

Law-Relat­ed Requests: Except as oth­er­wise described in this Pri­va­cy State­ment, we will not dis­close your Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion to any third par­ty unless required to do so by law, court order, legal process, or sub­poe­na, includ­ing, but not lim­it­ed to, in order to respond to any gov­ern­ment, reg­u­la­to­ry, or licens­ing request, or if we believe that such action is nec­es­sary to: (a) com­ply with the law, com­ply with legal process served on us or our affil­i­ates, sub­sidiaries, con­tract­ed ven­dors, or affin­i­ty part­ners, or inves­ti­gate, pre­vent, or take action regard­ing sus­pect­ed or actu­al ille­gal activ­i­ties; (b) enforce our Terms or cus­tomer agree­ment (includ­ing for billing and col­lec­tion pur­pos­es); © take pre­cau­tions against lia­bil­i­ty; (d) inves­ti­gate and defend our­selves against any third-par­ty claims or alle­ga­tions; (e) assist gov­ern­ment enforce­ment agen­cies or to meet nation­al secu­ri­ty require­ments; (f) to pro­tect the secu­ri­ty or integri­ty of our Web­site, our Prod­ucts or our Ser­vices; or, (g) exer­cise or pro­tect the rights, prop­er­ty, or per­son­al safe­ty of us, our users or others.

Dis­clo­sure of De-Iden­ti­fied Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion: We may share De-Iden­ti­fied Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion with third par­ties for any pur­pose. De-Iden­ti­fied Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion or non-Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion may be aggre­gat­ed for sys­tem admin­is­tra­tion and to mon­i­tor usage of the Web­site. It may be uti­lized to mea­sure the num­ber of vis­its to our Web­site, aver­age time spent, num­ber of pages viewed and to mon­i­tor var­i­ous oth­er Web­site sta­tis­tics. This mon­i­tor­ing helps us eval­u­ate how vis­i­tors use and nav­i­gate our Web­site so we can improve the con­tent. We may share De-Iden­ti­fied Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion or anony­mous infor­ma­tion (includ­ing, but not lim­it­ed to, anony­mous usage data, referring/​exit pages and URLs, IP address, plat­form types, num­ber of clicks, etc.) with inter­est­ed third par­ties in any way we choose and for any pur­pose. We may dis­close, sell, rent, etc., your De-Iden­ti­fied Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion to third par­ties and we may receive valu­able con­sid­er­a­tion for doing so.

Please note that if you choose to request that we delete your Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion or opt-out of the col­lec­tion and use of your Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion, you under­stand that cer­tain fea­tures of our Web­site, includ­ing, but not lim­it­ed to, access to the Ser­vices, may no longer be avail­able to you.

We may store the infor­ma­tion we col­lect about you indef­i­nite­ly, but infor­ma­tion gen­er­al­ly will be retained only for as long as nec­es­sary to ful­fill the pur­pos­es for which the infor­ma­tion was col­lect­ed, or as oth­er­wise required by law. Fol­low­ing ter­mi­na­tion or deac­ti­va­tion of your ASUG Account, ASUG may retain your infor­ma­tion and con­tent for a com­mer­cial­ly rea­son­able time for back­up, archival, and audit purposes.

ASUG takes rea­son­able efforts con­sis­tent with indus­try stan­dards to secure and pro­tect the secu­ri­ty and pri­va­cy of your Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion. When Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion is trans­mit­ted exter­nal­ly by us, it is pro­tect­ed through the use of encryp­tion, such as the Secure Sock­ets Lay­er (SSL) pro­to­col. As no data secu­ri­ty pro­to­col is impen­e­tra­ble, ASUG can­not guar­an­tee the secu­ri­ty of our sys­tems or data­bas­es, nor can we guar­an­tee that your Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion we main­tain will not be breached, inter­cept­ed, destroyed, accessed, or oth­er­wise dis­closed with­out autho­riza­tion. Accord­ing­ly, any Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion you dis­close to us is pro­vid­ed at your own risk.

Please do your part to help us keep your infor­ma­tion secure.

TRANS­FER AND STOR­AGE OF YOUR INFORMATION

Please note infor­ma­tion ASUG col­lects about you may be trans­ferred, processed, and/​or accessed by us in the Unit­ed States, or anoth­er coun­try where we or our Ser­vice Providers oper­ate.

It may also be processed by staff oper­at­ing out­side the EEA who work for us or for one of Ser­vice Providers. By sub­mit­ting your infor­ma­tion, reg­is­ter­ing for, or using the Ser­vices, you con­sent to the trans­fer, pro­cess­ing, and stor­age of your infor­ma­tion in the Unit­ed States, or any oth­er coun­try in which ASUG or our Ser­vice Providers main­tain facil­i­ties, and to the use and dis­clo­sure of infor­ma­tion about you as described in this Pri­va­cy Statement.

GDPR: THE FOL­LOW PRO­VI­SIONS APPLY ONLY TO CIT­I­ZENS AND RES­I­DENTS OF THE UNIT­ED KING­DOM, EEA, AND SWITZERLAND

The fol­low­ing sec­tions apply only if you are a cit­i­zen or res­i­dent of the UK, EEA, or Switzer­land. For such cit­i­zens or res­i­dents, all pro­cess­ing of your Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion is per­formed in accor­dance with pri­va­cy rights and reg­u­la­tions, in par­tic­u­lar, (EU) ²⁰¹⁶⁄₆₇₉ of the Euro­pean Par­lia­ment and of the Coun­cil of 27 April 2016, known as the Gen­er­al Data Pro­tec­tion Reg­u­la­tion (“GDPR”), and our pro­cess­ing will take place in accor­dance with the GDPR. For pur­pos­es of the GDPR, we will be the ​“data con­troller” of Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion (referred to and defined in the GDPR (avail­able here) as ​“Per­son­al Data”) we col­lect through the Web­site, unless we col­lect such infor­ma­tion on behalf of a ​“data con­troller” in which case we will be a ​“data proces­sor.” This Pri­va­cy State­ment does not apply to web­sites, appli­ca­tions or ser­vices that do not dis­play or link to this Pri­va­cy State­ment or that dis­play or link to a dif­fer­ent pri­va­cy pol­i­cy. For UK, EEA, and Switzer­land res­i­dents and cit­i­zens only, to the extent any def­i­n­i­tion in this Pri­va­cy State­ment con­flicts with a def­i­n­i­tion under the GDPR, the GDPR def­i­n­i­tion shall control.

We pro­vide ade­quate pro­tec­tion for the trans­fer of Per­son­al Infor­ma­tion to coun­tries out­side of the UK, EEA, or Switzer­land through a series of inter­com­pa­ny agree­ments based on or incor­po­rat­ing the Stan­dard Con­trac­tu­al Claus­es, or we rely on the Euro­pean Commission’s ade­qua­cy deci­sions about cer­tain coun­tries, as applic­a­ble, and/​or obtain your con­sent for these data trans­fers from Europe to the Unit­ed States to oth­er coun­tries. We may also need to trans­fer your infor­ma­tion to oth­er group com­pa­nies or Ser­vice Providers in coun­tries out­side the EEA. This may hap­pen if our servers or sup­pli­ers and Ser­vice Providers are based out­side the UK, EEA, or Switzer­land, or if you use our Ser­vices and Prod­ucts while vis­it­ing coun­tries out­side this area.

If you are a vis­i­tor using our Web­site from the UK, EEA, or Switzer­land, our legal basis for col­lect­ing and using the Per­son­al Data described above will depend on the Per­son­al Data con­cerned and the spe­cif­ic con­text in which we col­lect it.
