Privacy Protections and Use of Information
We will not disclose or share personally identifiable information collected on our web site with any third party (except as required by law or pursuant to a governmental request). 

Aggregate Data

We may share reports with third parties based on aggregated data of our Members (“Aggregated Member Data”). Aggregated Member Data does not include any personally identifiable information. For example, these reports will not include your personal or organization name. Information about Members is aggregated for the purposes of determining successful event benchmarks and other similar activities. 

Event Registration

When you register for an event via a link on our site, you have granted us permission to release the information you entered to the event planners. 

Special Circumstances

We may disclose personal information when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to or interference with other MSHP users or anyone else who could be harmed by such activities. 

Cookies

A cookie is a small data file that some web sites write to your hard drive when you visit them. A cookie may contain information like a user ID that allows the site to track which web pages you have visited. The only personal information a cookie contains is information you decide to supply. A cookie cannot read data from your hard drive or cookie files created by other web sites. 

IP Addresses

We may use your IP address to diagnose problems with our servers and administer our web site. 

eCommerce

If you are registering for a paid event, we may request payment information to conclude the transaction as well as your mailing address or other contact information to ensure authentication and proper delivery. We use industry-standard secure socket layer (SSL) encryption. We do not sell or rent your personal financial information.

When you engage in an eCommerce transaction on our site using a credit card, your credit card information, including the number and expiration date and your billing addresses, is passed only to MSHP. Your credit card information is stored in the system just long enough to fully process your transaction. After the transaction has completed, your credit card information is removed from our system for security reasons.

You can decline to provide credit card information and any other information at our site at anytime. If you should choose to withhold requested information; however, we may not be able to provide you with the full spectrum of our services.

If you require a refund, please contact us.

MSHP makes a listserv available to its members.

The listserv may be monitored for content by us.
