This Web site, www.cacpa.org is that of the Cuban-American CPA Association (CACPA). This statement governs the privacy practices used on this website.

Collection and Disclosing Information

The CACPA Web Site has many sections that are open to all users, with no registration required. For these sections, our Web server contains no software that automatically tracks e-mail addresses of users. However, our Web server does track domain names for security purposes and for information regarding the nature and extent of our website's usage.

Users are not required to disclose any personal information in order to view our site. The CACPA may gather some personal identifiable information when it is voluntarily submitted by the user. The types of information collected may include your name, email address, phone number, and postal address. This information is used for its intended purpose, and to better serve the users. All personally identifiable information obtained from users is treated with great care in order to protect your privacy and security. The information volunteered is used solely by the CACPA and will not be shared with unrelated outside parties.

From time to time, we may use your address, phone number or e-mail address to provide you with updates and other information we think may be of interest to you. Your ability to opt out of such information is discussed below.

We collect the e-mail addresses of those who communicate with us via e-mail. We do not currently sell e-mail addresses to any third party.

We also collect information volunteered by users in relation to an on-line survey and/or site registrations. This information is kept confidential by the CACPA and is not used for purposes outside of the intent of the survey or registration form.

The suspected breach of privacy will be investigated by CACPA with the security operations of this web site.
