and the public.

We communicate with our members and other members of the public in a variety of
ways, including via our websites, including https://ASEcho.org,

link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Website”), via our portal for
registered members and prospective members (the “Member Portal”), via our mobile
applications (each, an “App”), as well as through the services we make available
to you through the Website, Apps, and Member Portal (collectively, the

This Privacy Policy explains the information we collect and you may provide us

How We Interact With You
In providing our Services, we may interact with you in many ways.

unless you are a member of ASE.  You can contact us via the Website by emailing
one of our listed staff members or by emailing the generic email address
(ase@asecho.org) listed on our ‘Contact Us’ online page.  You may also be able

   services to ASE, including our service providers, contractors and
   consultants. For example, we use third parties to help manage registration

   intentionally or unintentionally) our rights or property, other website
   users, or anyone else who could be harmed by such activities. Additionally,
   ASE may disclose personal information in response to a subpoena, warrant or

   amalgamation or any other type of acquisition, disposal, transfer, conveyance
   or financing of all or any portion of ASE, or of any of the business of ASE,

4. Where Will We Transfer Your Information?
ASE is headquartered in the United States.  If you are located outside of the
United States, your personal information will be transferred and stored in the
United States.  The United States has not received an “adequacy decision” from
the European Commission, which means that the data protection laws of the United
States may not offer the same protections as the country in which you reside
when you provide information to us.  If we transfer personal information outside
the European Union (EU) or European Economic Area (EEA), we will implement
appropriate and suitable safeguards to ensure that such data will be protected
as required by applicable data protection law.

5. How Long Will We Keep Your Information?
We will retain your personal information for as long as is necessary for
purposes for which it was collected.  The precise period will depend on the
reason why it was collected.  Those periods are also based on the requirements
of applicable data protection laws, applicable legal and regulatory
requirements, and periods relating to the commencement of legal actions.

6. How Do We Protect Your Information?
We implement a variety of technical and organizational measures to help protect
your personal information from unauthorized access, use, disclosure and
transfer.  Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is
not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal
information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information
transmitted to the Website and any transmission is at your own risk.  Once we
have received your personal information, we will use procedures and security
features to try to prevent unauthorized access.

7. Changes to Personal Information; Opt-Out
You may contact us using the contact information provided at the end of this
Privacy Policy if you have any questions, or if you wish to update, correct or
amend your personal information. (For individuals located in the EU or the EEA,
please also “Your Rights Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)”
below).  Please note that we may not be able to correct or update your personal
information previously provided to us by third parties. As mentioned above, we
may use your personal information to contact and correspond with you and to
respond to your inquiries.  We may send you email or other communications
regarding our programs, such as newsletters and event invitations.  We will
provide you the opportunity to “opt-out” or unsubscribe from these emails (e.g.,
email we send you will tell you how to decline future emails from us).

8. Your Rights Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
If your personal information is protected by the GDPR (i.e., you are located in
the European Union or the European Economic Area), then you have certain data
protection rights described below with respect to the personal information

have the right to ask us to correct your personal information that we hold where
it is incorrect or incomplete. Right to erasure of your personal information:
You have the right to ask that your personal information be deleted in certain
circumstances.  For example (i) where your personal information is no longer

personal information and request that it is suspended instead; (iii) we no
longer need your personal information, but your personal information is required
by you for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims; or (iv) you

We use third-party service providers to collect usage analytics and to set and
track cookies on our behalf, such as Google Analytics.  Cookies are pieces of
information stored directly on the device you are using.  Cookies allow us to
recognize your device and to collect information such as internet browser type,
time spent using Website, and pages visited.  This helps us to provide you with
a good experience when you browse the Website and also allows us to improve the
Website.  Cookies further allow us to present to you the information that will
most likely to appeal to you based on your activity and preferences.  We may
also use cookies to track your responses to our advertisements and we may use
cookies or other files to track your use of other websites. You can refuse to
accept the cookies we use by adjusting your browser settings.  However, if you
do not accept these cookies, you may affect your use of the Website and ability
to access certain features of the Website.  You can find out more about how to
manage cookies here: www.allaboutcookies.org/manage-cookies.

10. Note for California Residents
California law permits California residents who provide us with personal
information to request certain information regarding our disclosure of such
information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. If you are a
California resident, you have the right, pursuant to Section 1798.83 of the
California Civil Code, to receive once a year, free of charge: (1) information
identifying each third party company to whom we may have disclosed, within the
past year, personal information pertaining to you for that company’s direct
marketing purposes, if any; and (2) a description of the categories of personal
information disclosed to that third party company in the immediately preceding
calendar year. If you are a California resident and would like to make this
request, please contact us using the “Contact Us” information below.  A number
of states are currently considering enacting laws similar to the California law
above, in which case this section will also apply to residents of that state.

11. Do-Not-Track Disclosure; Third-Party Tracking
Certain mechanisms may allow you to send web browser signals, known as “Do Not
Track” (“DNT”) signals, indicating your choice to disable tracking on the
Website.  We do not respond to browser do not track signals at this time.  We
may not be aware of or able to honor and respond to every such mechanism.  More
information about “do not track” is available at www.allaboutdnt.org concerning
such information. Third parties, other than our vendors (such as our website
analytics provider), do not have authorization from us to track which websites
you visited prior to and after visiting the Website.  That said, we cannot
control third party tracking and there may be some third party tracking that
occurs without our knowledge or consent.

12. Links to Third-Party Websites
The Website or Apps may contain links to the websites of third parties. We have
no control over the content or operation of these websites, nor do we control
the confidentiality or privacy practices of the website operators. Consequently,
any personal information you submit through such websites is governed by the
privacy policies of the websites in question. It is therefore your
responsibility to find out about the third party policies in order to protect
information that concerns you.

13. No Services for Minors
We do not knowingly collect information from minors. To use the Services, you
must be the age of legal majority in your place of residence. By using the
Services, you hereby represent that you are at least the age of legal majority
in your place of residence. We do not use an application or other mechanism to
determine the age of users of the Services.  We will use commercially reasonable
efforts to delete information associated with a minor as soon as practicable if
we learn that a minor has submitted information to us.

14. Who Is Responsible for the Personal Information We Collect?
ASE is the data controller for the purpose of data protection law, in respect of
your personal information collected and used through your use of the Website and
the Services.  This is because we dictate the purpose for which your personal
information is used and how we use your personal information.

personal information, you can contact us by:

number without notifying us of such change, you agree that you will be
responsible for all costs (including attorneys’ fees) and liabilities incurred
by us, or any party that assists in the delivery of the mobile messages, as a
result of claims brought by the individual(s) who is later assigned that mobile
telephone number. This duty and agreement shall survive any cancellation or
termination of your agreement to participate in the texting program.

YOU AGREE THAT YOU SHALL INDEMNIFY, DEFEND, AND HOLD US, OUR AGENTS, AND ANY
THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDER WE USE TO SEND TEXT MESSAGES HARMLESS FROM ANY
CLAIM OR LIABILITY RESULTING FROM YOUR FAILURE TO NOTIFY US OF A CHANGE IN OR
INACCURACY OF THE INFORMATION YOU HAVE PROVIDED, AND ANY AGREEMENT OR
REPRESENTATION HEREIN RELATED THERETO, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY CLAIM
OR LIABILITY UNDER THE TELEPHONE CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT, 47 U.S.C. § 227, et
seq., OR SIMILAR STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS, AND ANY REGULATIONS PROMULGATED
THEREUNDER RESULTING FROM US ATTEMPTING TO CONTACT YOU AT THE MOBILE TELEPHONE
NUMBER YOU PROVIDED.

Truthful and Accurate Information. When you complete forms online or otherwise
provide ASE with information in connection with the texting program, you agree
to provide accurate, complete, and true information. You agree not to use a
false or misleading name or a name that you are not authorized to use, or to
provide a mobile number that you are not the subscriber or customary user of.
If, in ASE’s sole discretion, we believe that any such information is untrue,
inaccurate, or incomplete, or you have opted into the texting program for an
ulterior purpose, we may refuse you access to the program and pursue any
appropriate legal remedies
