Privacy Policy

Who we are

The Georgia Society for Clinical Social Work, Inc. (GSCSW). places a high value on the importance of
protecting our members, non-members and all users of our websites.  As a result, we have adopted the
following: what personal data we collect and why we collect it

Email Newsletters

When people subscribe to any of GSCSW e-mail newsletters, we ask for contact information (such as
name, e-mail address, and occasionally, demographic information).  We use this information to send
ongoing information about the activities of GSCSW, and other pertinent information.  Recipients of our
newsletters can unsubscribe using the instructions listed at the bottom of the e-mail newsletter.  We
follow all policies of Mail Chimp when registering individuals for communications.

Online Membership Payments

For memberships, events and other payments that are provided through our website, we collect credit
card information (such as account name, number and expiration date), which is used for billing purposes
only, and is not otherwise shared. When persons pay via Stripe, no credit card or billing information is
visible to GSCSW or able to be stored.

Communications with us

Our website provides an email address for users to submit additional requests for information.  These
requests may be forwarded as needed to best respond to a specific request.  We may retain e-mails and
other information sent to us for our internal administrative purposes.  We cannot provide consumer
information through a general inquiry.  We will request that appropriate releases of information first be
provided.

Information Sharing

We do not share personally identifiable information with other organizations.  
We may share aggregate information, which is not personally identifiable, with others.  This information
may include usage and demographic data, but will not include personal information.

Data Security

GSCSW. uses reasonable precautions to protect our users’ personal information and to store it securely. 
Files containing your information could be subject to production in a court of law.  Even with all
reasonable efforts to protect them, these files could be accessed illegally or against our wishes.  Credit
card information is encrypted and is transmitted to us securely.  In addition, access to all of our users’
information is restricted.  Only the GSCSW Administrator has access to personally identifiable
information.  Information is kept on secure servers in a secure environment.

GSCSW will not be liable for damages resulting from a release of the information that you provide, unless
GSCSW was grossly negligent or acted with reckless disregard.  By submitting information to GSCSW you
agree to accept the terms of this Privacy Statement.
