Privacy Policy
SMOFcon 27
SMOFcon 27 has implemented the following Online Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy outlines the information SMOFcon 27 will collect and how we will use that information. SMOFcon 27 has a long-standing tradition of recognizing and protecting the privacy of members who use its telecommunications networks. SMOFcon 27 maintains strict member information privacy policies and uses the most recent industry standard technologies to safeguard member information and communications from unauthorized intrusions.
SMOFcon 27 is aware that the growth of online services, including internet services, has created additional privacy concerns, particularly for members. Online privacy concerns focus primarily on the protection of "membership" information which an individual reasonably expects to be kept private. As the term suggests, "membership" information is information that, when referenced to an individual identifies that individual, such as, a member's name, address, and e-mail address. Today it is common practice and often a necessity for companies, governments, and other organizations to collect membership information in order to conduct their business and offer services.
How SMOFcon 27 Protects Your Privacy Online
Collection and Use: SMOFcon 27 will collect and use membership information for billing and membership purposes to anticipate and resolve problems with your membership, or to inform you of any updates to SMOFcon 27. This means that SMOFcon 27 may use your membership information to contact you, but we will not disclose your membership information to third parties who want to market products to you.
When you access the internet, the computers that host websites you visit (web servers) automatically receive and transmit some anonymous information.

SMOFcon 27 will not use information about your activities on the internet in conjunction with any information that identifies you without first obtaining your consent.
