RMHN.org Privacy Policy and Terms of Use

The only information RMHN obtains about individual visitors to its Site is that supplied voluntarily by visitors. In cases when RMHN may need personal information to provide visitors with customized content or to inform them about new features or services, visitors are explicitly asked for that information. Personally identifiable information provided by visitors (name, e-mail or home address, etc.) will not be disclosed to anyone unless visitors indicate that RMHN may do so. Only statistical information about our visitors as a group (usage habits, demographics) may be shared with any partner of RMHN. Personally identifiable information will not be shared at any time without the visitor's permission.

IP Addresses

An IP address is a number automatically assigned to your computer whenever you access the Internet. All computer identification on the Internet is conducted with IP addresses, which allow computers and servers to recognize and communicate with each other. RMHN collects IP addresses in order to conduct system administration, report aggregate information and to conduct site analysis. If a visitor requests pages from RMHN, the RMHN servers enter the visitor's IP address into a log. To maintain visitor anonymity, RMHN does not associate IP addresses with records containing personal information. However, RMHN will use IP addresses to identify any visitors who refuse to comply with RMHN's rules or terms of service, to identify visitors who threaten our service, Site, customers or others, to enforce our legal rights or when required to do so by law enforcement authorities.

Cookies

Our Site may attempt to place a small data text file called a "cookie" in the browser files of your computer's hard drive. Cookies are pieces of information that a Site transfers to an individual's hard disk for record keeping purposes. These cookies automatically identify your browser to our server whenever you interact with the Site. Most browsers accept these cookies, but you may change the settings on your browser to prevent acceptance of cookies. Our Site uses cookies during your on-line session to deliver content specific to your interests and to collect the domain name of the server from which you are visiting. Cookies allow us to avoid showing you the same ad or other message repeatedly. Our cookies do not contain personal information. They do enable RMHN to relate your use of the Site to information that you have specifically and knowingly provided to our Site.

To gain access to certain portions of our website a user may be required users to give provide contact information such as name e-mail address, ZIP code, sex, age or income level. This information is only collected with your permission and on a voluntary basis. The customer's contact information is used to contact the visitor when necessary. Users may choose (opt-in) to receive future mailings; see the choice/opt-in section below. Demographic and profile data are also collected at our Site. We use this data to tailor the visitor's experience at our Site, showing the visitor content that reflects their stated preferences.

Web-site External Links

In order to provide visitors with greater value, RMHN may provide links to various third-party Sites. However, even if a third-party affiliation exists between RMHN and that destination Site, RMHN exercises no authority over linked Sites, each of which maintains independent privacy and data collection policies and procedures. RMHN does not disclose personably identifiable information to those operating these linked Sites. RMHN assumes no responsibility or liability for these independent methods or actions and is not responsible for the independent policies or procedures of destination sites. Similarly, RMHN cannot take responsibility for the privacy initiatives or the content of such Sites. These destination links are provided only for your convenience, and as such, you access them at your own risk. You should read the privacy policies of each site you visit to determine what information that site may be collecting about you. However, RMHN wishes to ensure the integrity of the RMHN Site and its destination links, so any comments pertaining to the RMHN Site or any sites accessed through RMHN links are greatly appreciated.

Online Surveys and Questionnaires

Our on-line surveys and questionnaires may ask visitors for contact and demographic information. If you agree to participate in any surveys, you will be asked to review and accept certain additional terms and conditions relating to use of the information you furnish. These Terms and Conditions are in addition to the Privacy Policies set forth herein, including sharing such personally identifiable information with market research firms with which we have a business relationship. Additionally, the customer's contact information is used to contact the visitor when necessary. Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings; see the choice/opt-in/removal section below.

Email Communications, Newsletters and Related Services

With your permission, RMHN may send you informational e-mails or surveys. In addition, the Site provides you with the opportunity to receive certain other communications from us or third parties. To stop receiving communications, see the Removal of Information section below.

Please be aware that Internet and e-mail communications are not confidential. It is possible that information transmitted via e-mail may be read or obtained by other parties.

Aggregate Information

RMHN may provide its partners and entities with which it has a business relationship, general traffic, site usage, and length of stay information. This sort of information is shared only on an aggregated basis and does not personally identify you. For instance, RMHN may tell one of its advertisers that X number of visitors visited a certain area of the Site, but RMHN will not disclose anything that could be used to identify those individuals.
