To better protect your privacy we provide this notice explaining our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used

The Information We Collect:

On some pages, you can make requests or register to receive materials or information. The types of personal information collected at these pages are:

The Way We Use Information:

We use the information you provide about yourself to provide membership services, including newsletters, monthly updates, press releases, and other e-mail announcements. The majority of the information is viewable only by the NFALA board and staff and the database administrator.

We restrict access to your personal data to the database administrator and those NFALA board and staff members who need to know that information to provide benefits or services to you.

However, our database has a feature that allows our members to specifically opt-in to having their profile searched.  Any other registered member may log into the NFALA website and search for those specific members by location, specialty, etc.

We use return email addresses to answer email inquiries we may receive. Such addresses are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with outside parties.

Data Collection From Children

NFALA does not knowingly collect any information from children.

Our Commitment to Data Security

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we, along with our database administrator Wild Apricot, have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

How You Can Access or Correct Your Information

You can access your member profile at the NFALA website by using your assigned username and password. While logged in, you may review or modify all parts of your member profile data. We use this procedure to better safeguard your information.

You can correct factual errors in your personally identifiable information by sending us a written request that specifies updates or removal of profile data.

To protect your privacy and security, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access or making corrections.
