Your Privacy
Welcome to the wyominginnovationsnetwork.org and the Wyoming Innovations Network
(WIN).
We recognize that privacy is an important issue, so we operate
our services with the protection of your privacy in mind. This Privacy
Policy outlines the types of personal information we gather when
you use WIN's services, as well as some of the steps we take to
safeguard it.
The following principles apply to the personally identifying information
we ask for and that you provide. "Personally identifying information"
is information that individually identifies you, such as your name,
physical address or email address. You can find more details about
the data we collect on particular services by clicking the links
on the side of this page.
Data collection
- Some of the WIN Member services services do not require any
personally identifying information.
- WIN collects limited non-personally identifying information
your browser makes available whenever you visit our website. This
log information includes your Internet Protocol address, browser
type, browser language, the date and time of your query and one
or more cookies that may uniquely identify your browser. We use
this information to operate, develop and improve our services
and website.
- Some of our services require you to register for an account.
WIN asks you for some personal informationto create an account
(typically your name, email address and a password for your account)
and we will use that information to provide the service. For certain
services, such as our Membership Programs, we may request credit
card or other payment information which we maintain in encrypted
form on secure servers.
- When we require personally identifying information, we will
inform you about the types of information we collect and how we
use it. We hope this will help you make an informed decision about
sharing your personal information with us.
Cookies
Upon your first visit to WIN, a cookie is sent to your
computer that uniquely identifies your browser. A "cookie"
is a small file containing a string of characters that is sent to
your computer when you visit a website. We use cookies to improve
the quality of our service and to better understand how people interact
with us. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You
can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when
a cookie is being sent. However, some WIN features or services may
not function properly without cookies.
Information sharing
We do not rent or sell your personally identifying information
to other companies or individuals, unless we have your consent.
We may share such information in any of the following limited circumstances:
- We have your consent.
- We provide such information to trusted businesses or persons
for the sole purpose of processing personally identifying information
on our behalf. When this is done, it is subject to agreements
that oblige those parties to process such information only on
our instructions and in compliance with this Privacy Policy and
appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
- We conclude that we are required by law or have a good faith
belief that access, preservation or disclosure of such information
is reasonably necessary to protect the rights, property or safety
of WIN, its users or the public.
- If you have an account, we may share the information submitted
under your account among all of our services in order to provide
you with a seamless experience and to improve the quality
of our services. We will not disclose your account information
to other people or non-affiliated companies, except in the
limited circumstances described in this Policy or with your
consent.
- We may store and process personal information collected
on our site in the United States or any other country in which
WIN Inc. or its agents maintain facilities. By using our
services, you consent to the transfer of your information
among these facilities, including those located outside your
country.
- In the event of a transfer of ownership of WIN Inc., such
as acquisition by or merger with another organization or government
agency, we will provide notice before any personally identifying
information is transferred and becomes subject to a different
privacy policy.
- We may share aggregated information with others. Examples
of this include the number of users who referenced news reelases
or how many users logged into the Membership area.
Information security
We take appropriate security measures to protect against
unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or
destruction of data. We restrict access to your personally identifying
information to employees who need to know that information in order
to operate, develop or improve our services.
Updating your information
We provide mechanisms for updating and correcting your
personally identifying information for many of our services including
the Membership Directory. For more information, please log into
the directory to access the help file.
Links
The sites linked to by WIN's website are developed by people
over whom WIN exercises no control. These other sites may place
their own cookies on your computer, collect data or solicit personal
information.

time. We expect most such changes to be minor, but there may be
changes that are more significant. Regardless, we will post those
changes on this page and, if the changes are significant, we will
also provide a more prominent notice. Each version will be noted
at the top of the page. Prior versions of this Privacy Policy will
be kept in an archive for you to view.
