What Information Do We Collect and How Is It Used?

Automatic Data Collection: As with most Internet sites, the website collects a variety of technical data, including your IP address, domain, and web browser information. Technical data is used only for the purpose of creating broad demographic summaries of website usage and activity to assist us in providing useful content that is tailored to be of most value to our users.
Cookies: Our website may use “cookies”. This technology allows users to move more quickly through our site. Cookies are small text files that a website uses to recognize repeat users and facilitate ongoing access to and use of the site.

All personal information is securely stored on our servers. MBYC has reasonable security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse and interception by third parties of the information under our control. However, complete confidentiality and security is not yet possible over the Internet. We assume no liability for any damages you may suffer as a result of interception, alteration or misuse of information that is transmitted or collected over the Internet.
LIMITS FOR COLLECTING, USING, DISCLOSING AND KEEPING PERSONAL INFORMATION:
We limit the type of mandatory information collected by us to only the personal information that is required to accomplish the identified purpose of providing MBYC’s various member services, as well as responding to e-mail inquiries.
