Non-personal information is data about usage and service operation that is not directly associated with a specific personal identity. Las Puertas Events Center may collect and analyze non-personal information to evaluate how visitors use the web site.

Examples include referral data (the web sites you visited just before and just after our site), the pages viewed, time spent at our Web site, and Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you access the Internet. For example, when you request a page from www.laspuertasevents.com, our web server logs your IP address to create aggregate reports on user demographics and traffic patterns and for purposes of system administration.

Every time you request or download a file from the web site, our web server may store data about these events and your IP address in a log file. Las Puertas Events Center may use this information to analyze trends, administer the web site, track users’ movements, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use or for other business purposes.

Cookies
Our site may use a feature of your browser to set a “cookie” on your computer. Cookies are small packets of information that a web server stores on your computer. Our web server can then read those cookies whenever you visit our web site. We may use cookies in a number of ways, such as to process your festival registration order, to deliver content specific to your interests, and to track the pages you’ve visited. These cookies allow us to use the information we collect to customize your experience so that your visit to our site is as relevant and as valuable to you as possible.

Most browser software can be set up to deal with cookies. You may modify your browser preference to provide you with choices relating to cookies. You have the choice to accept all cookies, to be notified when a cookie is set or to reject all cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, certain of the functions and conveniences of our web site may not work properly, and you may be unable to use some of the services we provide. Most browsers offer instructions on how to reset the browser to reject cookies in the “Help” section of the toolbar. We do not link non-personal information from cookies to personally identifiable information without your permission.

Web Beacons
Our web site also may use web beacons to collect non-personal information about your use of our web site and your use of our newsletters. The information collected by web beacons allows us to statistically monitor how many people are using our web site; how many people open our emails; and for what purposes these actions are being taken. Our web beacons are not used to track your activity outside of our web site or our newsletters. Las Puertas Events Center does not link non-personal information from web beacons to personally identifiable information without your permission.

Information Sharing
Las Puertas Events Center does not sell, rent, or lease any individual’s personal information or lists of email addresses to anyone for marketing purposes, and we take commercially reasonable steps to maintain the security of this information. However, Las Puertas Events Center reserves the right to supply any such information to any organization into which Las Puertas Events Center may merge in the future or to which it may make any transfer in order to enable a third party to continue part or all of its mission. Las Puertas Events Center also reserves the right to release personal information to protect our systems or business, if we reasonably believe you to have initiated or participated in any illegal activity.

Las Puertas Events Center may maintain publicly accessible archives of our activities.

Answers to our survey questions may be quoted on our web site without your name attributed to the quote.

Given the international scope of the www.laspuertasevents.com website, personal information may be visible to persons outside your country of residence, including to persons in countries that your own country’s privacy laws and regulations deem deficient in ensuring an adequate level of protection for such information. If you are unsure whether this Privacy Policy is in conflict with applicable local rules, you should ask that your information not be shown on our web site; specifically during registration for one of our events. If you are located within the European Union, you should note that your information will be transferred to the United States, which is deemed by the European Union to have inadequate data protection. Nevertheless, in accordance with local laws implementing European Union Directive 95/46/EC of 24 October 1995 (“EU Privacy Directive”) on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, individuals located in countries outside of the United States of America who submit personal information do thereby consent to the general use of such information as provided in this Privacy Policy and to its transfer to and/or storage in the United States of America.

If you do not want your personal information collected and used by Las Puertas Events Center, please do not visit the www.laspuertasevents.com web site or register for any of our event or sign-up for any of our email lists.

Certain areas of the www.laspuertasevents.com web site may limit access to specific individuals through the use of passwords or other personal identifiers; a password prompt is your indication that a protected resource is being accessed.

Security
Las Puertas Events Center makes every effort to protect personal information for users of the web site, including using application firewalls, encryption using SSL certificates, and other security measures on its servers. No server, however, is 100% secure, and you should take this into account when submitting personal or confidential information about yourself on any web site, including this one. Much of the personal information is used in conjunction with services such as event registration, payment, and check-in, so some types of personal information such as your name, and email address may be visible to employees and volunteers for Las Puertas Events Center over encrypted communication channels (such as https). Las Puertas Events Center assumes no liability for the interception, alteration, or misuse of the information you provide.

Opting Out
