Privacy Policy
Overview
This web site is owned and operated by the High Technology Crime Investigation Association (HTCIA). We recognize that many visitors to our site are concerned about the information they provide to us, and how we treat that information. The HTCIA recognizes its obligation to its customers, membership, community and online visitors to adhere to the highest standards of Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability in all its operations. Likewise, HTCIA is dedicated to the fundamentals of protecting consumer privacy on the Internet.
Cookies
The HTCIA may use "cookie" technology to obtain non-private information from its online visitors. Cookies are data files that your web browser places on your computer when you visit a web site. Most browsers accept cookies automatically, but can be configured not to accept them or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. We do not extract private information in this process nor do we provide this information to third parties.
Links
The HTCIA web sites may contain links to other sites. We make every effort to only link to web sites that share our high standards of Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability. We try our best to ensure that these links are safe, but the privacy and data collection practices on any linked web sites are entirely separate from HTCIA and are not covered by this privacy statement. Other web sites, which may contain material not suitable for some people, may also link to the HTCIA web sites without our knowledge or consent. The HTCIA has no responsibility for the content, policies or actions of these web sites.
Security
The HTCIA has taken steps to make all information received from our online visitors as secure as possible against unauthorized access and use. Private information provided by customers is kept in HTCIA's secure database. All information received from our customers and membership is protected by our security measures, which are periodically reviewed. You should keep in mind, however, that no data transmission over the Internet is 100% secure and any information disclosed online can potentially be collected and used by parties other than the intended recipient.

The HTCIA web sites content and features may be updated, revised, modified and supplemented. The HTCIA reserves the right to change the information, features, products, policies, disclosures and disclaimers at any time. This policy is subject to change and may be updated periodically.
