Use of information
We use your IP address and files you access to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our Web site by identifying which parts of our site are most heavily used. We also use this information to tailor site content to user needs, and to generate aggregate statistical reports. At no time do we disclose site usage by individual visitors.
In addition, visitor activity is tracked using Google Analytics. Google Analytics is subject to the privacy policy of Google, Inc., which you can find on Google’s website. These data are used to optimize our website for our visitors, and do not include personally identifiable information such as name, contact information, or credit card numbers.
All personally identifiable information provided by alumni is strictly reserved for use by individual alumni, the Harvard Alumni Association (HAA) and the Harvard Club/SIG for personal and University-related purposes only. Personal information is never shared with third parties or made publicly available under any circumstances:
Security
The HAA has taken reasonable precautions to secure the personal information available through the online community.
- Areas of our website where personal information is displayed or can be entered are password protected to allow access by registered users only. These areas include the online directory, profile update, account management, and registration for some events.
- Users have the option to suppress the information fields in their records that they wish to keep private, which will prevent these fields from being viewed by other community members.
Although these precautions should help to protect any personal information available through our website from abuse or outside interference, a certain degree of privacy risk is faced any time information is shared over the Internet.
