The Compensation and Benefits Network of Greater St. Louis is committed to protecting the privacy of the users of its web site. To better inform you of our policy concerning user privacy, we have adopted the following guidelines. Please note that these guidelines are subject to change, and any such changes will be included on this page.

Information Collected
As with most industry-standard web serving software, each visit to our website generates a logfile entry that indicates time of visit, the domain name of your machine (e.g., “dial-54.somewhere.edu”) and the file(s) (and their sizes, in bytes) that your visit generated. Other non-personally identifiable information also includes the type of web browser and the operating system you are using.

Use of the Information
We use the information you provide to facilitate your use of the CBN web site, to respond to your inquiries about CBN, to improve the design of our site, for system administration and troubleshooting purposes, and in aggregated form, to track and analyze site usage. This information is for internal use only and is not shared with third parties.

Privacy
As a CBN member, you may participate in the online CBN membership directory, which is available to CBN members only via password protection. Your contact information is for use by the members of CBN and is not sold or distributed to third parties. We do not allow member information to be used for solicitation purposes of any kind.

Use of Cookies
In rare instances CBN employs "cookie" technology. Cookies are small pieces of text that are stored on your computer and act as a tool for controlling certain system variables and storing system configuration information in the website environment. CBN only uses cookies to store authentication information. No personal information is extracted in the cookie setting process, and we do not use cookies to identify what other sites or pages you have visited. We do not involve advertisers, who may place a cookie on your browser, in the operation of our site.

We provide this statement as an assurance to you. We want you to know that your privacy is respected and will not be abused or violated by visiting our site. We also hope that by providing this privacy statement, other sites will join us in reaffirming your rights of privacy while using the Internet.

We welcome your input
If changes are made to this policy, they will be posted here, so that you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it. Your comments are always welcome. Please tell us what you think about our privacy statement.
