Your continued use of the Website following the posting of any changes to this Privacy Policy means you accept such changes. These Terms set forth the terms and conditions under which you may use our website and services as offered by us.

Non-Personally Identifiable Information
For management of the Website, certain non-personally identifiable information ("Non-Personally Identifiable Data") is collected by us, through the standard operation of our Web servers and through use of "cookies" (described more fully below), for statistical purposes, including, without limitation, for market research activities. This Website uses software programs to create aggregated, anonymous statistics, which are used for such purposes as assessing what information is of most and least interest to the Website visitors, determining optimal technical design specifications, and identifying system performance or problem areas so that we can work on improving such areas of the Website. We also use Non-Personally Identifiable Data collected by us to improve and enhance our users' experience on the Website.

Participation in the Website features is totally voluntary. You are under no obligation to provide any information and/or personal data to marinecorpsmustang.org. However, in order to utilize some of the services or features, you may be asked to provide certain personally identifiable information ("PII") about yourself. PII can include, without limitation, your name, address, email address, rank, unit and service information. You may also be asked to submit PII about other users so that you can share content from the Website via email. You are not authorized to submit any such PII of another user unless you have consent from such user to submit such PII to us. You hereby represent and warrant that you have the necessary authorization to submit any such PII about any such other user. Your PII will never be publicly viewable on the Website.

We do not share any PII you submit through the Website with any third party other than our agents, contractors and affiliated websites in connection with the operation of the Website, unless it is necessary to respond to your inquiry, or to comply with applicable law.

We will never sell your PII to any third party not affiliated with us without your prior written consent.
Security
The security of your PII is very important to us. When we collect your PII, we use reasonable efforts to protect it from unauthorized access. However, due to the inherently open nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee that your PII will be completely free from unauthorized access by third parties such as hackers, and your use of the Website demonstrates your assumption of this risk.

If a child who is not at least 18 years old has provided us with PII, that child's parent or legal guardian should contact us at Marine Corps Marine Corps Mustang Association, Inc., PO Box 546, Freeland, WA 98249, if the parent or legal guardian would like the information submitted by the child deleted from our database that contains information submitted by users of the Website. If we are so contacted or if we otherwise become aware that personally identifiable information from a child who is not at least 18 years old has been collected without such child's parent or guardian's consent, we will use all reasonable efforts to delete such information from our database.
