We collect non-personally identifiable information about you in
a number of ways. The information we collect depends upon what
you do when visiting our site.
If you visit our web site to read or download information, we
collect and store only the following information about you: the
name of the domain from which you access the Internet (for example,
aol.com, if you are connecting from an America Online account);
the date and time you access our site; and the Internet address
of the web site from which you linked directly to our site. We
use the information we collect to measure the number of visitors
to the different sections of our web site, and to help us make
our web site more useful to visitors.
On your own initiative, you may decide to send us personally-identifying
information, for example, you may choose to include such information
in an electronic mail message or you may subscribe to our e-mail
list. Additionally, there may be times when we request that you
provide us with personally-identifying information about yourself,
such as your name, e-mail address, telephone number, address,
organization name, products/services sold, and/or credit card
information. We also maintain a record of your online purchases.
The Solon Chamber of Commerce does not retain or store credit
card numbers.
Whether or not you provide such information is completely your
own choice. But if you choose not to provide the information that
we request, you may be unable to purchase products or access certain
services, offers, and content on the Chamber's web site. We want
to be very clear: We will not obtain personally-identifying information
about you when you visit our site, unless you choose to provide
such information to us.

detection, and web site administration.
We may use personally-identifying information from you to respond
to your inquiries or for other internal business purposes, but
we do not sell or rent that information to third parties. However,
you should be aware that although we have security measures in
place the possibility exists that others will illegally access
such information and use it-though any such use would be without
our consent.
The Chamber shall have the right to distribute your personally-identifying
information to outside processors (e.g. banking service providers).
Both the Chamber and its outside processors may (i.) use the information
you provide as necessary to process your online purchases; (ii.)
maintain the information as long as necessary or as required by
law and used internally for record keeping, internal reporting,
