Privacy Policy
COBYS Family Services Website/Digital Privacy Policy
COBYS Family Services places a high priority on protecting your privacy. This privacy policy was created in order to demonstrate the firm commitment of COBYS to the privacy of our website users. This policy explains what types of information is collected by the COBYS Family Services website, www.cobys.org, and how this information is used.
What Personally Identifiable Information is Collected
Only the contact forms on this site and those created through COBYS social media accounts as well as program registration or service access collect personally identifiable information. This information is used for the sole purpose of responding to comments, inquiries and registrations submitted via a particular form.
Site visitors are also invited to sign up for newsletters and/or emails from COBYS Family Services. That sign-up takes place on the primary website for COBYS Family Services at www.cobys.org and through promotion of such opportunity on COBYS social media accounts. Individuals that sign up to receive these e-communications voluntarily provide us with contact information (such as name and e-mail address). We may use this information for specific, limited purposes. You may always “opt out,” either now or at any time in the future, if you do not wish to receive our messages.
IP addresses
COBYS Family Services uses your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, to administer www.cobys.org, and for statistical metrics used to track website visitor traffic.
Cookies
www.cobys.org uses “cookie” messages to automatically help provide better services. They remind us who you are and your preferences for our website based on what you’ve done and told us before. The “cookie” is placed in your computer and is read when you come back to our website. Cookies let us take you to the information and features you’re particularly interested in. They also let us track your usage of www.cobys.org, so we know which parts of our sites are most popular. You can reject cookies or cancel them by instructing your web browser accordingly.
How Your Information May Be Used
We use your personal information to answer your inquiries, register you for services/classes or to send you e-communications that you select to opt into. You may choose to opt out at any time, which will cease newsletter/e-mail from us. We may also use your information to track visitors of our website. This lets us see which of our features are the most popular so we can better serve our users’ needs. It also lets us provide aggregate data about our traffic (not identifying you personally, but showing how many visitors used which features, for example) to outside parties
Email Privacy
COBYS Family Services does not provide, sell, or rent email addresses to anyone outside the organization.
External Links
www.cobys.org includes links to external websites. These links do not fall under the www.cobys.org domain, and COBYS Family Services is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of external websites. Your use of any linked website is solely at your own risk.
Modifications
We may amend this privacy policy from time to time; please review it periodically. We maintain the option to modify this privacy at any time by electronic notice posted on our website. Your continued use of our website after the date that such notices are posted will be deemed to be your agreement to the changed terms.
