The Eau Claire Area Chamber of Commerce (“the Chamber”) is committed to safeguarding the privacy of online visitors and users of the Chamber’s website (“site”), https://www.eauclairechamber.org. By accessing the site, you are accepting the practices described in the Privacy Policy. The policy may change from time to time, so please check back periodically.

1. Types of Information Collected and How Is It Used
The Chamber collects information from site visitors and users in a variety of ways.

When visitors access the Chamber’s site, the Chamber collects non-personal information such as the domain from which you access the Internet; the IP address of your computer; the date and time you access the Chamber’s site; and the internet address of the website from which you linked to the Chamber’s site. The Chamber uses this information only to evaluate its own site.

The Chamber’s site users may provide personal information. Users that are not investors of the Chamber may provide contact information such as name, company name, address, phone and email address. The Chamber will use that information for communication purposes with the site user. If the user is registering for an event at the Chamber, the contact information may be given to other registrants of the event. Information that is provided to us by Chamber members, may be used for communicating with them or in publications of the Chamber.

If a site user purchases a product or service from the Chamber’s site, the Chamber maintains a record of the online purchase. If the user provides credit card information, that information will only be used for that one purchase.

2. Security
The Chamber attempts to have as high security levels for its website, although you should be aware the 100% security is not always achievable. We use SSL encryption technology when you submit credit card information over the internet on our site. If you e-mail information to us, we have no way to protect that information until it reaches us.

Investors of the Chamber have the ability to submit information to us with the use of an ID and password. The credentials should be protected by the member to ensure proper use.
