What information is being collected about me and how will this information be used?
When you visit our site, we collect some non-identifying basic information. This includes total number of visitors, pages viewed, and other non-identifying information. We use this aggregate information to improve our site and to make your experience on our website as smooth as possible.
Donations and purchases made on-line to us are secure. When you make a donation on-line, we ask for your name, address, daytime phone, e-mail address, and credit card information. We use your information to process your donation(s) and to verify credit card data. We use your mailing address to send your tax-deductible receipt(s) and to keep you informed about what we are doing through our publications.
ASP maintains a policy to discontinue contacting any person upon that person's verbal or written request. If you wish to stop receiving information or appeals for support from ASP, simply call or submit your request via email or regular mail. It will be necessary for you to provide your name and address for us to correctly identify you in our files and make the necessary changes for you to stop receiving our mailings. Because we print many of our mailings in advance, it may take up to eight to ten weeks for this change to take effect.
