United Privacy Statement

We will guard the personal information you share with us to ensure the content, services, and advertising that we provide on United are always tailored to your current, designated preferences.

When you provide United with your name (or alias), e-mail address, mailing address, or telephone number, and you "opt in," United and United representatives may use the provided information to alert you to product upgrades, special offers, updated information, classes, new services, and other United information. ("Representatives" include value-added resellers and authorized training partners.) United does not offer, or allow the selling of, any user-provided information to third parties.

United respects the rights users give us when opting to receive e-mail communications and enforces internal policies to preserve those rights. It is our objective to retain the long-term ability to continue to communicate with our users.

If you do not want United or United representatives to contact you, you may "opt out" of this preference at any time, whether you're online or contacting United directly. As part of your preference flexibility, you'll always have the option to opt back in and have United contact you based on your previous or new preferences. For instructions, please see the section "Contact Us," below.

If you choose not to register or provide personal information, you can still visit most United websites; however, you will not have access to areas that require personal identification.

If a user elects to use our Tell A Friend application for forwarding a United e-mail to their friend or informing a friend about our website, we ask them for the friend's name and e-mail address. United will automatically send the friend the specified e-mail or the specified website information. United will not use the friend's information to contact them in the future.

United membership and the use of log files (cookies)
United offers free membership to all United visitors. In order to establish membership, visitors are requested to provide both personal information and preferences. This information is stored and protected by your user-established Member ID and Password.

United may reserve the right to share your email with SiteMyWay for further information to be sent your way
so you are up to date with the new features on United Site. You may opt out at anytime with SiteMyWay.
SiteMyWay is the technology that allows this Siteto function.

No information, other than that found in the Membership cookie, will be accessed by any United system. Access to your membership information always requires both your Member ID and Password.

United also utilizes visitor log files (cookies) with our website. Once a user enters our Site, a cookie follows them through their click stream path. Examples of information being collected by these cookies include the number of times a user came to our Site(s), and the paths they took to get there.

United uses the data collected from website visitor cookies in aggregate form only and does not collect any personally identifiable information. Use of this information helps us better understand what users are seeking and learning at our website(s) and helps us identify potential navigation issues.

How United will protect your personal information
United will always protect the personal information that you share with us. United stores information internally in a controlled, secure environment. If, for example, you make a purchase online, we route all transactions through SSL (Secure Socket Layers) and will process your credit card number only to secure your current payment. The SSL transaction does not retain your credit card number subsequent to the transaction at hand and will not use the number for marketing purposes.

We occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services on our behalf, including packaging, mailing and delivering purchases, answering customer questions about products or services, sending postal mail and processing event registration. We will only provide those companies the information they need to deliver the service, and they are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose.

If United requests general demographic information, this information is limited to reporting purposes only; members remain anonymous. Phone numbers, e-mail addresses, and postal addresses are never shared for demographic reports with outside entities.

United may occasionally present a special contest or promotion that is sponsored by another company. To qualify for entry, we may ask you to provide personal information. If we plan to share that information with the sponsor(s), we will provide an up-front statement to that effect.

Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on our website.
