We may also make aggregated information available to third parties for their own purposes.
We take measures designed to secure and protect information transmitted via or stored on the Site.

Please assist us in protecting your information. If a password is used to help protect your account and information, it is your responsibility to keep your password confidential. Do not share this information with anyone and please notify us if you believe that your password has been stolen or might have otherwise been misused.
The Site may contain links to websites and services not operated by IWF, including various social media websites, surveys or other promotions. We suggest that you review the applicable privacy policy of the third party website or service regarding, among other things, how they will handle any information they collect from or about you. We are not responsible for the content of third party services or websites, your use of those services or websites, or the privacy practices of the third party operating those services or websites.
You may limit and control the information provided to us in a number of ways; however, you may not be able to use all features of the Site if you limit the information you share with us.
Account Information. If you have registered for an account through the Site, you may correct, update or delete the information contained in your account by logging in to your account and editing your information. Note that we may keep historical information in our backup files as permitted by law.
Emails. You can stop receiving promotional emails by submitting a request to the address in the “Contact Us” section below or following the unsubscribe instructions in e-mails that you receive. Clicking on an unsubscribe link will take you to a webpage where you can complete the opt-out process. If you decide not to receive promotional emails, we may still send you transactional communications, such as those about your account, relating to an IWF Event for which you have registered, to fulfill orders you have made, to ask you to rate a product you purchased, or IWF Event you attended, or other service-related communications.
Event Badges. If you attend an IWF Event, you will have the option when you receive your event badge at registration or check-in to opt-out of having an electronic tag placed on your badge.
Cookies. Your browser and your device may provide you the option to limit the use of cookies or other Data Technologies. You should refer to your web browser’s or mobile device’s options or settings menu for more information about adjusting your settings. Disabling or rejecting cookies may disable some of the features and functionality of the Site.
Google Analytics. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to the Site is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use, available at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/gb.html and the Google Privacy Policy available at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en. To more fully understand how Google may use the data it collects on the Site, please review “How Google uses data when you use our partners’ sites or apps,” (located here or any successor URL). In addition, you may be able to opt-out of this use of information about you by Google through an opt-out browser add-on, which can be found here: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.
Targeted Advertising. Many companies that collect information for targeted advertising are members of either the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”) or the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”). The NAI and the DAA offer the ability for you to opt-out of the targeted advertising programs of their members. The NAI op-out is available at http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp and the DAA opt-out is available at http://www.aboutads.info/choices. Please note that if you use a different computer, change your web browser, or delete your cookies, you will need to renew all of your opt-out choices. Please also note that this does not opt you out of being served advertising but only excludes you from targeted (i.e. interest-based) advertising. If you use the Site, you will continue to receive generic advertisements.
California and Delaware law require IWF to indicate whether it honors “Do Not Track” settings in your browser concerning targeted advertising. At this time, there is no worldwide uniform or consistent industry standard or definition for responding to, processing, or communicating Do Not Track signals. Thus, like many other websites and online services, we are currently unable to respond to Do Not Track Signals. To find out more about “Do Not Track”, you may wish to visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.
