Our Privacy Policy
We
ask only for information that will help you get the most from our
program. We understand that the information you provide is personal. All
reports from
Get Fit Akron!
will be in aggregate data and statistical form.
Leadership Akron and its Get Fit Akron! partners are strongly
committed to protecting your privacy and providing a safe online
experience for all users. Because some personal information is
gathered, you
should fully understand the terms and conditions surrounding the
collection and use of this information. This privacy statement
discloses what information will be gathered, how it will be used, and what steps
will be taken to safeguard the personal information provided.
You can visit the website, read articles, and browse partner pages
without submitting any personally identifiable information.
If you wish to participate in the online progress tracking or in the
weekly drawings, you will need to provide registration information
in our "Track Your Progress" section: first name, email, zip
code, health issues, and age range. Optional
information that will help everyone benefit more from the program
will also be gathered:
weight, height, habits goals, etc. Registration is required to
participate in the program's weekly drawings.
When you register, your e-mail address will be added to the Get
Fit Akron! listserv, and you will be sent program updates via
e-mail. You can opt out of the updates at any time by following the
unsubscribe instructions in the body of any message.
Your IP address, browser type, domain name,
access times and referring website address may also be collected. This helps identify
the success of referral programs.
Leadership Akron will not share any personally identifiable
information provided on the website without your permission.
Statistical reports of anonymous, aggregate data will be forwarded
to Get Fit Akron! partners in order to measure the success of
the program. Reports will be confined to program-specific
generalities (such as zip code, age range, health issues, goals met,
etc.).
However, we reserve the right to use or disclose any information without
notice or consent as needed to satisfy any law, regulation or legal
request; to conduct investigations of consumer complaints or
possible breaches of law; to protect the integrity of our site and
our property; to protect the safety of our visitors or others; or to
cooperate in any legal investigation.
The Get Fit Akron! website is hosted and administered by
Project Connect, a Program of Info Line, Inc. Secure Sockets
Layer (SSL) technology is used to encrypt data to prevent unauthorized
access during transmission over the Internet. Standard industry practices
are incorporated internally—as well as with service
providers—suitable to the degree of sensitivity of the information
involved to maintain the security of your personal information and
to avoid its disclosure except as described in this policy.
Your
personal information is also protected by the password you created
when you registered. The confidentiality of any password is yours to
protect. If you have concerns about password integrity, click on the
link for Technical Support at the bottom of every website page.
Although best efforts are used to assure that your data remains
secure, security during Internet transmissions
cannot be assured. Info Line limits access to personal data only to
those employees or agents with a specific need to access or retrieve
this information. Data is stored on multiple service systems in
controlled, secure environments. To maintain the highest level of
security, internal reviews of security measures are conducted on a
regular basis.
Leadership Akron is strongly committed to protecting the safety and
privacy of children who visit our website. All parents
are encouraged to talk to their children about online safety and to monitor their
children's use of the Internet.
Leadership Akron may offer links to or from other websites. It is not responsible for the content, practices or policies of sites
operated by third parties. You are urged you to inquire about them before

This Privacy Policy may be updated as necessary to
protect users and to comply with a changing environment. Changes in
handling previously collected personal
information that have retroactive effect will not be made unless
Leadership Akron is legally required to
do so. All policy changes will be prominently posted on the website
prior to implementation. It is recommended that you check the policy when you visit
the website to be
sure you are aware of and understand the current policy.
