Please review the entire policy and feel free to contact us using the contact information below if you have any questions.  By using MCCC websites, you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your information in accordance with the policy.

HOW WE OBTAIN YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Information you provide directly to MCCC.

Information we collect automatically. 
We may collect certain information automatically when you use our websites, such as your Internet protocol (IP) address, device and advertising identifiers, browser type, operating system, Internet service provider, pages that you visit before and after using the websites, the date and time of your visit, information about the links you click, the pages you view, the general manner in which you navigate the Sites, and other standard server log information.  We may also collect certain location information when you use our sites, such as your computer’s IP address, your mobile device’s GPS signal, or information about nearby WiFi access points and cell towers.

We and third parties that provide content or functionality on our websites may use cookies, pixel tags, Local Shared Objects, and similar technologies to automatically collect this information.

We may also receive information about you from other sources, including through third-party services and organizations.  For example, if you access third-party services, such as Facebook or Google, through the Sites to log in to the Sites or to share information about your experience on the Sites with others, we may collect information from these third-party services.

HOW LONG WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will retain your personal information for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purpose for which we obtained your personal information and any other permitted purposes permitted by law, and in compliance with our data retention policies.  For example, we will retain and use your personal information to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.

SHARING OF PERSONAL INFORMATION WITH THIRD PARTIES

We are committed to maintaining your trust, and we want you to understand when and with whom we may share the information we collect.

  • Authorized third-party vendors and service providers. We may share your information with third-party vendors and service providers that help us with specialized services, including email deployment, business analytics, marketing, advertising, performance monitoring, hosting, and data processing.

SECURITY

We use reasonable measures to help protect information from loss, theft, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.  You should understand that no data storage system or data transmission over the Internet or any other public network can be guaranteed to be 100 percent secure.  Please note that information collected by third parties may not have the same security protections as information you submit to us, and we are not responsible for protecting the security of such information.
