Protecting your privacy

Privacy policy

This Privacy Policy explains how the Association of Airworthiness Professionals, Inc. (AAP) collects, uses, shares, and protects information in connection with the AAP website at awprofessionals.org, our “Site”. This Privacy Policy applies regardless of the type of device you use to access our Site.

By using our Site, you are accepting and consenting to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. This

Privacy Policy is not a contract.

AAP shall have the right at any time to change or modify this policy without notice. Users agree to review the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy (as posted on AAP web site) periodically to be aware of such revisions. For purposes of this Privacy Policy, "personally identifiable information" means information that identifies a particular individual, such as name, date of birth, address and telephone number.

Information we collect and how we use it

In order to manage AAP business, we collect and maintain personally identifiable information about you. AAP collects personally identifiable information from many sources to understand and meet your needs. For example, we collect personally identifiable information about you from:

  • You, when you voluntarily provide us with information
  • Your transactions with AAP

There are a number of areas in the Site where we ask for and collect information about you, including personally identifiable information. Where we do, it is in order to serve you better, or is necessary to accomplish the service you are requesting. Examples include membership information (which may include name, address, email, telephone number and professional employment information), shipping information, and product purchase information. Membership information is used both in the AAP mailing lists and in the AAP Membership Directory.

Security identifiers are not disclosed to third parties or affiliated persons or entities. Shipping information (except membership information as noted above) and product purchase information is not disclosed except in connection with the fulfillment and processing of your orders and requests.

Security

All of the personal information collected from you on the Site, including names, addresses, are stored behind a "firewall," and defenses have been erected to seek to enhance the protection of your information from outside attack by hackers and curious visitors.

Please note, however, that while AAP attempts to safeguard your personally identifiable information, no method of transmitting or storing electronic information is ever completely secure, and thus we make no warranty, express, implied, or otherwise, that your information will never be accessed, used or released in a manner that is inconsistent with this Privacy Policy. In no event shall we be liable for any damages (whether consequential, direct, incidental, indirect, punitive, special or otherwise) arising out of, or in any way connected with a third party’s unauthorized access to your information, regardless of whether such damages are based on contract, strict liability, tort or other theories of liability, and also regardless of whether we are given actual or constructive notice that damages were possible, except as provided under applicable laws.
