American Amateur Sports Association ("AASA"),
through its subsidiaries, provides insurance brokerage,
risk management and related services to its corporate,
association and individual clients.
PRIVACY POLICY
AASA is firmly committed to protecting your privacy
and the confidentiality of your Personal Information.
We understand your privacy and security concerns
regarding the information we collect, use and
disclose to third parties for the purpose of allowing
us to provide and offer our products and services
to you. To notify you about our practices, we
have developed this Privacy Policy. Any personally
identifiable information collected on this Site
is considered Personal Information ("Personal
Information") and will be treated in accordance
with this Privacy Policy.
COLLECTION, USE AND DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
AASA is committed to protecting the privacy of
Internet users who visit AASA's web site, located
at www.aasa.com (the "Site").
The information gathered by AASA from this Site
falls into two categories: (1) information voluntarily
supplied by visitors to our Site and (2) tracking
information gathered as visitors navigate through
our Site.
Information Voluntarily Provided by You
When using this Site, you may choose to provide
us with information to help us serve your needs.
For example, you may provide us your e-mail address
to request information, or you may send us your
mailing address so we may send you the material
you have requested. Any Personal Information that
you send us will be used only for the purpose
indicated on the Site or in this policy. We may
also use your information to provide you with
information about other services and products
that are offered by AASA or our affiliated companies
that we think may be of interest to you.
If you do not wish to be contacted by us, please
see the section titled "Opting-Out"
below.
Cookies
This Site may use cookies. Cookies are pieces
of information stored by your web browser on behalf
of a web site and returned to the web site on
request. The only Personal Information a cookie
can contain is information you supply. A cookie
cannot read data off your hard drive.
If this Site uses cookies, certain pages of the
Site may not function properly if the cookies
are turned off. Please consult your web browser's
Help documentation for more information about
how to turn cookies on and off for your browser.
Cookies are placed on your computer, and accordingly
we neither store cookies on our computers nor
forward them to any external parties.
The information that may be maintained by a cookie
is used by AASA solely to help us manage the Site,
improve features of the Site and understand usage
patterns. This may include such items as: username,
the pages visited on the Site; the date and time
of the visit; the internet address of the referring
site; the version of browser used; the capabilities
of the browser; and the search terms used on our
search engines.
Disclosure or Use of Personal Information
We will not exchange or sell or otherwise distribute
your Personal Information without your consent,
except to the extent required by law, in accordance
with your instructions, or as identified in this
privacy policy:
o Agents and Service Providers. We sometimes
contract with other companies and individuals
to perform functions or services on our behalf,
such as hosting this Site, sending e-mail messages
and making phone calls on our behalf. They may
have access to Personal Information, such as addresses,
needed to perform their functions, but are restricted
from using it for purposes other than providing
services for AASA.
o Business Transfers. As we continue to develop
our business, we might sell or buy assets. In
such transactions, user information generally
is one of the transferred business assets. Also,
if either AASA itself or substantially all of
AASA assets were acquired, your Personal Information
may be one of the transferred assets.
Legal Matters
AASA may preserve and has the right to disclose
without your prior permission any information
about you or your use of this Site if AASA has
a good faith belief that such action is necessary
to: (a) Protect and defend the rights, property
or safety of AASA or its affiliates, employees,
other users of this Site, or the public; (b) Enforce
the terms and conditions that apply to use of
this site, or (c) Respond to claims that any content
violates the rights of third-parties. We may also
disclose information as we deem necessary to satisfy
any applicable law, regulation, legal process
or governmental request.
External Links
AASA includes links to other websites whose privacy
policies we do not control. Once you leave our
servers (you can tell where you are by checking
the URL in the location bar on your browser),
use of any information you provide is governed
by the privacy policy of the operator of the site
you are visiting. That policy may differ from
ours. If you can't find the privacy policy of
any of these sites via a link from the site's
homepage, you should contact the site directly
for more information.
Information Storage and Security
Information collected through this Site is processed
and stored in the United States. If you are located
outside the United States, by providing information
to AASA through the use of the Site you are consenting
to the transfer of the information to the United
States for processing in accordance with this
Privacy Policy. We have in place physical, electronic,
and procedural safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity
of the Personal Information we collect, use, and
maintain. However, as effective as our security
measures are, no security system is impenetrable.
We cannot guarantee the security of our database,
nor can we guarantee that information you supply
will not be intercepted while being transmitted
to us over the Internet. We ask that you do your
part by maintaining in strict confidence any computer
passwords you use to access the Internet or this
Site.
Information Related To Employment
This Site may provide an opportunity to submit
your résumé or an application form
to us or apply for a position through this Site.
If you submit information for such purposes, we
will use (which may include transferring) the
Personal Information you provide to evaluate your
qualifications and contact you regarding any positions
at AASA or any of its affiliated companies in
which we believe you may be interested.

unintentional. AASA encourages parents to discuss
the Internet with their children and monitor Personal
Information that a child may provide via the Internet.
