Privacy statement:
This security and privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”)
constitutes a part of the Terms & Conditions (“Terms and Conditions”) of
the StandWithUs.com Web Site, which governs your use of this Site. The Terms and Conditions, including
this Privacy Policy, may be amended by StandWithUs.com at any time by posting
the amended Terms and Conditions on this Site. The Terms and Conditions were last amended on August 24, 2008.
In addition to this Privacy Policy, certain StandWithUs.com
services on or accessible from this Site may have Supplemental Terms that will
govern your use of such services. These also form a part of the Terms and
Conditions and govern your use of such services.
Credit Card Transactions
For your protection, we have taken a number of steps to
maximize the security of financial transactions that are accepted on the StandWithUs.com
Web Site. Credit Card processing is accomplished using secure processing
services. Your entry of credit
card information is encrypted when transmitted in secure mode. If you are behind a firewall, the
Secure Socket Layer (SSL) feature of your browser and the processing of the
credit card may be blocked. In this case, you have the option of credit card
processing without SSL by selecting the "Non-Secure" feature on the
screen -- the choice is up to you.
If for any reason, you still feel uncomfortable submitting
your credit card over the Internet, you can mail your credit card form to us.
Using Encryption
In certain transactions you are given the option of running
in a secure (SSL) mode or unsecured mode. In cases where a firewall is causing
a situation that cannot be corrected, the use of the unsecured mode is given.
The unsecured mode is used by you at your own risk.
In addition, there are constantly changing restrictions in
the use of encryption software and schemes that are used in various countries.
The use of appropriate software and encryption options are your responsibility,
and StandWithUs.com assumes no risk or liability in ensuring your compliance to
local law.
REGARDLESS OF THE PRECAUTIONS TAKEN BY YOU OR BY StandWithUs.com,
PERFECT SECURITY DOES NOT EXIST ON THE INTERNET. StandWithUs.com CANNOT ENSURE
OR WARRANT THE SECURITY OF ANY INFORMATION YOU TRANSMIT TO THIS SITE OR StandWithUs.com,
AND YOU TRANSMIT SUCH INFORMATION AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Information We Collect From You, How We Use the Information
and Opt-out Choices
There are a number of areas in the StandWithUs.com Web Site
where we ask for and collect information about you, including personally
identifiable information. Where we do, it is in order to serve you better, or
is necessary to accomplish the service you are requesting. Examples include

From time to time, to better serve our members and to
supplement member dues, the StandWithUs.com mailing list, in part or as a
whole, may be released to other carefully selected third party organizations to
provide you with other information, products and services that could be
valuable to you or that we otherwise believe is useful to our members. In addition, the mailing lists may be
used in connection with informing you about StandWithUs.com services, products,
conferences, meetings and events. You may instruct us to not share information
about you in the StandWithUs.com mailing lists with third parties by indicating
this preference on your membership application when you join StandWithUs.com,
on your renewal form when you renew your membership, or by sending an email to
us at info@StandWithUs.com and including your name and contact information for
identification purposes. Your
choice to opt-out of third party mailings is effective until the next annual
renewal date and you must select the mailing lists opt-out option on your
renewal form to keep the opt-out in effect.

affiliated persons or entities.
Shipping information and product purchase information stored in online
shopping carts is not disclosed except in connection with the fulfillment and
processing of your orders and requests.
Use of "Cookies"
Cookies are implemented in various parts of the StandWithUs.com

using Cookies have specific statements on their use as part of their Frequently
Asked Questions (“FAQ”) section. It is the policy of StandWithUs.com that
Cookies do not carry any of your personal information (name, email address,

General StandWithUs.com Web Server Security
All of the StandWithUs.com Web servers throughout the main

using industry-standard certificate techniques. This enables all communication
between our servers to be verified when services are requested between our
computers.
All of the personal information collected from you on the
Site, including names, addresses, is stored behind a "firewall," and
defenses have been erected to seek to enhance the protection of your
information from outside attack by hackers and curious visitors.
Personal Protection of Your Access Rights and Authentication
There is a common registration process that allows you to
receive your "StandWithUs.com Web Account". The registration involves
the use of your membership number, a registration PIN number, and your
subsequent choice of a unique user name and password. See the StandWithUs.com
Web Account Site for more information on this service.
The user name and password will be used to authenticate you
when you enter privileged services that are offered by the StandWithUs.com.

current status in the StandWithUs.com, Societies, or specific electronic
services for which you have signed-up.

or other activity that is illegal or may expose us, service or content
providers we work with, or you to possible legal liability.
