Privacy
a. Normal website usage:
The NONPROFIT has a firm commitment to internet privacy. You can visit most portions of checnet.org without telling us who you are and without revealing any personal information. The only information we collect from a normal web site visit is the name of your internet service provider, the browser and type of machine you are using, the web site that referred you to us, the pages you request and the date and time you request them. We use this information to generate statistics and measure site activity to improve the usefulness of the site to our visitors.
b. Collection of personally identifiable information:
The NONPROFIT may collect email addresses and other personally identifiable data about visitors when such data is voluntarily submitted to checnet.org. For example, our site uses order forms for visitors to request information, products, and services, or to become a member. Contact information from the order form is used to send orders and information about the NONPROFIT to our visitors.
c. The NONPROFIT makes every effort to ensure the secure collection and transmission of sensitive user information using industry accepted data collection and encryption methodologies.

In accordance with COPPA regulations, we DO NOT:
1. Request or knowingly collect personally identifiable online or offline contact information from users under 13 years of age;
2. Knowingly use or share personal information from users under 13 years of age with third parties;
3. Give children the ability to publicly post or otherwise distribute personally identifiable contact information;
4. Entice children with the prospect of a special game, prize or other activity to divulge more information than is needed to participate in the activity.
