Security & Privacy Policies
Security Policy
When you register at Ruah Woods, our secure server encrypts all of your personal information, including name, address and credit card information. Encryption helps ensure that no one can access or use your personal information.
Privacy Policy
We value the users of our web site (the "Website") and their access to the products and services offered on it (the "Services"), and we know privacy is important to them. Accordingly, we have implemented this Privacy Policy to inform you of the information that we collect from you, how we collect it, and what we do with it. By using the Website you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
How and when we collect information:
We collect "personal" information from you when you provide it to us. For example, if you register for a class, we collect your name, mailing address, telephone number, credit card number and email address. If you sign up to receive a newsletter, we will collect your email address.
What we do with your information:
We are committed to protecting your privacy. Under no circumstances do we rent, trade or share your e-mail address with any other company for their marketing purposes without your consent. We use your personal information for internal purposes such as processing and keeping you informed of your order. You may, from time to time, receive information from us about new features, new services and special offers we think you'll find valuable.
The personal information that you give us when you place an order or utilize one of the Services is used to process and fulfill your order or request. We also use your personal information for our own internal purposes, such as providing customer support or providing, maintaining, evaluating and improving the Services and the Website.
We partner with one credit card processing company to assist us in processing your payment. However, this company does not retain, share, store, or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes. The information you provide us is used for processing and fulfilling your order and contacting you if we have problems processing your order.
Your choice to opt-out of certain communications:
If you are no longer interested in receiving e-mail announcements and other marketing information from us, please e-mail your request to lesliekuhlman@ruahwoods.org.
We link to other sites:
This Website may contain links to other web sites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other web sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Website.
How we protect your information
The security of your personal information is important to us. When you enter sensitive information such as a credit card number on our registration or order forms, we encrypt that information. We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us from unauthorized access or disclosure, both during transmission and once we receive it. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. We assume no liability for any disclosure of data due to errors in transmission, unauthorized third party access or other acts of third parties, or other acts or omissions.
Changes to our Privacy Policy:
If we change our Privacy Policy, we will post a new Privacy Policy on our Website, which will become effective when posted. The new policy will apply to all current and past users of the Website and will replace any prior policies that are inconsistent with it.
Refunds
If you are unable to attend a class you have registered for, a full refund will be provided.
