Privacy Information

This privacy statement covers the site www.tapestrycenter.org.  Because The GFR Center wants to demonstrate its commitment to our users’ privacy, it has agreed to disclose its information practices.

Information Collection

The GFR Center is the sole owner of the information collected on www.tapestrycenter.org. The GFR Center collects information from our users at different points on our website.

Registration

For certain email updates, tips, or special offers, a user must first register on our website.  During registration a user is required to give contact information (such as name and email address). We use this information to contact the user about services on our site for which he has expressed interest. 

Information Use

Use of registration information is for internal uses only, and only for the stated purpose (such as placing a customer on our mailing list.). Information is not sold or transferred to 3rd parties.

Cookies

A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user’s computer tied to information about the user.  Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site.   

Log Files

Like most standard website servers we use log files.  This includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user’s movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use.  IP addresses, etc. are not linked to personally identifiable information.  

Communications from the Site

Associates Program

If a user wishes to join our Associates Program, we ask for contact information such as name and email address.  Out of respect for our users' privacy we provide a way to opt-out of these communications.  Please see the Choice and Opt-out sections.

Service Announcements

On rare occasions it is necessary to send out a strictly service related announcement.  For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance we might send users an email.  Generally, users may not opt-out of these communications, though they can deactivate their account.  However, these communications are not promotional in nature.

Sharing

Legal Disclaimer

Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on our website.

These are the instances in which we will share users’ personal information:

We DO NOT Share Personal Information with Third Parties.

Choice/Opt-out

Our users are given the opportunity to ‘opt-out’ of having their information used for purposes not directly related to our site at the point where we ask for information. Users who no longer wish to receive our e-mail bulletin or other communications may opt-out of receiving these communications by following the opt-out directions included with our e-mail bulletins, or the user may contact us by phone at 520-626-8364, by email at info@tapestrycenter.org, or by postal mail at The Gloria F. Ross Center for Tapestry Studies, Arizona State Museum, The University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721-0026 to opt-out.

Please be aware that we, The GFR Center, are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites.  We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every website that collects personally identifiable information.  This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this website.
