Privacy

Our Commitment to Privacy

WFE Houston values its members and respects their privacy. We collect member information for our password-protected member directory and in order to collect dues and fees. We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties.

This policy describes the choices you can make about how we collect and use your information. If you have any questions about our privacy policy, you can always contact us.

If our information practices change in the future, we will post an updated policy on our website. You may exercise your choices about how we collect and use your information at any time.

What types of information are collected?

We collect information such as name, e-mail and postal addresses, company, title, and phone number for display in our password-protected member directory. Only WFE Houston members are given access to the member directory.

When you pay dues and/or fees online, we collect information such as name, address, and credit card number and expiration date. We use this information to process the payment transaction, confirm your payment, or contact you if we have other questions regarding your payment.

Does WFE Houston share my information with third parties?

WFE Houston does not give or sell your information to any other parties.

How do I access my information? How do I change or delete my information?

You can review, change or delete certain personal information by contacting us.

Credit Card Safety

Protecting the safety of your credit card information is important to us. We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to protect the security of your credit card information as it is transmitted to us. SSL is a highly sophisticated method of scrambling data as it travels from your computer to our website’s servers.

If someone steals your credit card information or uses your credit card in an unauthorized manner on our site (as determined by your credit card company) — through no fault of your own — we’ll cover up to $50 of the charges your credit card company doesn’t.

To make sure you are accessing our secure server before you submit personal financial information, look at the lower left-hand corner of your browser. If you see an unbroken key or a closed lock (depending upon your browser), then SSL is active. To double-check for security, look at the URL or Location line of your browser. If you have accessed a secure server, the first characters of the address in that line should change from “http” to “https.”

Some browser versions and some firewalls don’t permit communication through secure servers like the ones we use to process orders at WFE Houston. If for any reason you cannot access the secure server, or if you are not comforatble paying online, please feel free to contact us and we will be happy to take your credit card information over the phone.
