Privacy Policy

Data Collection

We do not collect domain or e-mail address information from visitors to our web pages.

However, we do collect aggregate information on which pages customers access as well as information volunteered by the consumer, such as survey information and/or site registrations.

The information we collect online is used to improve the content of our website, and will not be shared with other organizations for commercial purposes.

Contact With You

If you do not want to receive e-mail from us in the future, please let us know by contacting us through e-mail, telephone or written correspondence.

If you supply us with your postal address online, you may receive periodic mailings from us with information on new products and services or upcoming events.  If you do not wish to receive such mailings, please let us know by contacting us through e-mail, telephone or written correspondence.

From time to time, we may use customer information for new, unanticipated uses not previously disclosed in our privacy notice. 

If our information practices change at some time in the future, we will post the policy changes to our website to notify you and provide you with the ability to opt out of these new uses.  If you are concerned about how your information is used, you should check this page periodically.

Customers may prevent their information from being used for purposes other than those for which it was originally collected by contacting us through e-mail, telephone or written correspondence.

Your Access to Our Information

Upon request, we provide site visitors with access to unique identifier information (e.g., customer number or password) that we maintain about them and contact information (e.g., name, address, phone number) that we maintain about them. Consumers can access this information by contacting us through e-mail, telephone or written correspondence.
 

Security

We always use industry-standard encryption technologies when transferring and receiving consumer data exchanged with our site. When transferring and receiving certain types of sensitive information (such as financial information), we redirect visitors to a secure server. The New Bedford Whaling Museum has appropriate security measures in place at our physical facilities to protect against the loss, misuse or alteration of information that we have collected from you at our site.
