Privacy Policy
(Last updated on July 16, 2012)
Sally Ride Science™ is committed to protecting the privacy of its customers. Our Privacy Policy tells you what information we collect when you visit our Web site, how we use, share and protect it, what choices you have about how the information is used, and how you can access and update that information.
For purposes of this Privacy Policy, "personally identifiable information" means information that identifies a particular individual, such as name, postal address, e-mail address, and phone number. When other information, such as e-mail newsletter choices, product purchases, or consumer product preferences, is directly associated with personally identifiable information, this other information also becomes personally identifiable information.
Why and How We Collect and Store Information
When you visit Sally Ride Science™ you provide us with two types of information: personal information you knowingly choose to disclose that is collected by us and Web Site use information collected by us as you interact with our Web Site.
When you register for a user account, sign up for an event, or purchase products on the Sally Ride Science™ website, you provide us with certain personally identifiable information, such as your name, your email address, your telephone number, your address, your gender, billing information, and any other personal or preference information that you provide to us.
Our Web site also uses cookies. Cookies are small text files that are stored on a user’s computer and allow web sites to remember information about users. We use cookies for a variety of purposes in order to enhance the quality of our Web site. We use transient (also called "session ID") cookies to provide continuity from page to page. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. We also use persistent cookies. Persistent cookies allow our online store and other parts of our Web site to recognize your browser when you return after your first visit to that part of our Web site. Cookies allow us to personalize your return visits to our site and to save you time during certain activities, such as checking out from our online store. You can choose to remove persistent cookies through your browser options. However, if you do so, your ability to use some areas of our site will be limited.
When you set up your user account on Sally Ride Science™, you may also set up your user profile. This allows you to register for Sally Ride Science™ Events using stored information. You may also view past events on your user profile.
Sally Ride Science™ may disclose general, aggregated information that is not specifically associated you, to sponsors and other third parties. This information might include, for example, first name or screen name, age, city/state/country, special interests, etc.
We may also compile information regarding site traffic to determine the number of visitors to any of the Sally Ride Science™ websites, how long each visitor stayed, what pages of the site were visited and other general information, which is not otherwise personally identifiable information. We might share aggregate (non-personal) information compiled from traffic reports with our partners or sponsors.
No Disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information
Sally Ride Science™ will not disclose or sell personally identifiable information (such as full name, email address, school, etc.) about you without your prior consent. At this time, we would only disclose personally identifiable information about you to a successor to our business or to a third party that helps us run Sally Ride Science™ events and activities (such as a company that hosts our website), but only if that party agrees to comply with our privacy policy and to maintain the confidentiality and security of the information. Should you not agree to this limited third party disclosure of your personally identifiable information, please contact the Sally Ride Science™ operator at the address below.
Review Your Data, Choices and Security
Sally Ride Science™ allows you to review, modify, or delete your account information at any time; and you may also refuse to allow any further collection or use of your personal information.
To (a) initiate a review of your account information, (b) correct factual errors in such information, (c) request to have information deleted, or (d) request that we no longer collect or maintain such information about you, please call us at 1-800-561-5161 or email us.
Sally Ride Science™ has taken steps to ensure that any information we collect is secure. Our security measures include limiting the number of people who have physical access to our database and servers, utilizing electronic security systems, and using password protections that guard against unauthorized access. We are also sensitive to security concerns regarding the use of credit cards for purchases. We protect your credit card information (and all other personal information) using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology that automatically encrypts all data while information is being transmitted over the Internet. Furthermore, we will not keep your credit card number in our database once a transaction is completed.

We may amend this Privacy Policy at any time. If we make any material changes in the way we collect, use, and/or share your personally identifiable information, we will notify you by sending you an e-mail at the last e-mail address that you provided us and/or by prominently posting notice of the changes on the Web sites covered by this Privacy Policy. In any event, changes to this Privacy Policy may affect our use of personally identifiable information that you provided us prior to our notification to you of the changes.
