Our Commitment to Privacy
At Select Greater Philadelphia (“Select”), protecting your privacy is important to us. We understand you may have questions or concerns regarding your personal information and how it will be used. With this in mind, we have developed this Privacy Policy.

Applicability of Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy applies solely to information we collect through this web site.

On some of the pages on this web site, you may be able to submit queries, download information, or request services. The types of information we collect when you access the web site may include, without limitation, the following:

Your Name
Your Address
Your Electronic Mail (“Email”) Address
Your Phone/Fax Number
IP Address
Contents of Queries

Some of the information we collect via the web site is gathered and maintained through the use of “cookies” and other methods. A “cookie” is a small file that is saved on your computer and that contains information about you, such as your user name and password. As a result, we are able to (a) recognize you when you access the web site so that you do not have to re-enter your personal or other information each time you visit the web site, (b) customize and personalize the content we make available to you, (c) maintain the “state” of your current visit (e.g., to maintain a list of your most recent searches or the items in your “shopping basket”), and (d) alert you to new features.

In addition we may collect certain non-personal data in connection with the web site. For example, we may collect information on the browser that you use to access the web site, the operating system that you are running, what items you clicked on the applicable web page, how long you viewed a certain page, and information about the web site you accessed immediately before you accessed the web site. We may aggregate your non-personal data with the non-personal data of our other users or other non-personal data collected offline. We also collect and analyze general traffic patterns within our web site to help maintain the flow and content of the web site, and we may use some or all of this anonymous aggregated information to support our commercial activities or for any other reason.

We may from time to time send information and/or offers to the email address you provide to us. If you prefer not to receive such email, please follow the procedures set forth at the end of each such e-mail explaining how to have your email address “removed” from the applicable email list. Alternatively, you may contact us at selectnews@philachamber.com to “opt-out” of receiving such email.

We do not collect any personally identifiable information except as set forth in this Privacy Policy or as otherwise permitted by you. Except as specified in this Privacy Policy or as otherwise authorized by you, we will not disclose your personally identifiable information to any third party, unless required to do so by law; provided, however that we may (a) use such information to support our customer satisfaction initiatives, (b) from time to time disclose such information to selected third parties offering products in which you may be interested, and (c) we may disclose such information to other chambers of commerce provided that such third party agrees to comply with the provisions of our Privacy Policy with respect to the use of your information.

Information From Children
Our web site is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly solicit or collect information from any individuals under the age of 13.

Our Commitment to Data Security
To prevent unauthorized access to your personally identifiable information, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of such information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect. However, no safeguards or security procedures are 100% effective. We urge you to take all reasonable precautions to protect your personal data, which should include never sharing your username and password with anyone.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to revise this Privacy Policy from time to time in our discretion. If we modify this Privacy Policy, we will post the revised Privacy Policy, which will take effect immediately upon posting, and we may attempt to notify you of such change through your email addresses registered with us. It is your responsibility to periodically review this Privacy Policy.
