Personal Data We Collect From Others
We may receive information about you from publicly available and third-party databases or services that provide information about business people that we believe will help us identify and provide products and services that may be of interest to you. We will not contact you without your consent if consent is required by the law of the country in which you are located.
We will only process your Personal Data, including sharing it with third parties, where (1) you have provided your consent, which can be withdrawn at any time, (2) the processing is necessary for the performance of a transaction to which you are a party, or (3) we are required by law.
Personal Data That You Give Us

Information We Collect About You
We will use Personal Data that we have collected about your use of our site:
Personal Data We Receive From Other Sources
In some instances, we may receive personal data about you from third parties, such as when one of our member institutions provides us with a roster of its personnel who the institution has authorized to register for or use services from CUPA-HR because of the individual’s affiliation with that educational institution. Such information may include personal data such as full name, work position or title, and business email, phone number, and address.
We will combine this information with information you give to us and information we collect about you. We will use this information and the combined Personal Data for the purposes set out above (depending on the types of information we receive).
We consider the processing of your Personal Data for these purposes to be either (1) necessary for the performance of our contractual obligations with you (e.g. to manage your membership or provide member-related services, or to process your registration for an event) or (2) required by law, or (3) pursuant to your consent.
If we require your consent for any specific use of your Personal Data (such as for marketing activities, where required by the law), we will collect it at the appropriate time and you can withdraw this at any time.
CUPA-HR uses cookies to enhance your experience on our site. Cookies are files with small amounts of data that are sent from a website and stored on your computer’s hard drive. Cookies, by themselves, do not tell us your e-mail address or other personal information unless you choose to provide this information to us by, for example, creating an account. Once you choose to provide us with your personal information, this information may be linked to the data stored in the cookie.
You can modify your cookie preferences via your browser if you wish to change how your computer accepts cookies. You also can disable cookies altogether. However, if you disable browser cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our service.
The site is not intended for use by persons under the age of 13, or under the age of 16 in the European Union (EU) or European Economic Area (EEA). CUPA-HR does not knowingly collect information from visitors under the age of 13, or 16 in the EU or EEA, and, in the event that we learn that a person under the age of 13, or 16 in the EU or EEA, has provided us with personal information, we will delete such personal information.

Security
Although we use security measures to help protect your Personal Data against loss, misuse or unauthorized disclosure, we cannot guarantee the security of information transmitted to us over the internet. All information you provide to us is stored on secure servers. Any payment transactions are encrypted using SSL technology.
Transfer of Personal Data Outside of the European Economic Area (EEA) and International Users
We are headquartered in the United States. Your Personal Data may be accessed by us or transferred to us in the United States or to our affiliates, partners, merchants, or service providers who are located worldwide. If you are visiting our site from outside the United States, be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States where our servers are located, and our central database is operated. By using our Service, you consent to any transfer of this information.
We will store your Personal Data, in a form which permits us to identify you, for as long as it reasonably necessary for the purpose for which the Personal Data is collected and processed. We may retain and use your Personal Data as necessary to comply with our legal obligations (e.g., tax, accounting, or other purposes), resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements and rights, or if it is not technically reasonably feasible to remove it. Consistent with these requirements, we will try to delete your Personal Data quickly upon request. If you have elected to receive marketing communications from us, we retain information about your marketing preferences until you opt out of receiving these communications and in accordance with our policies.
To determine the appropriate retention period for your Personal Data, we will consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the Personal Data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your Personal Data, the purposes for which we use your Personal Data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements. In some circumstances we may anonymize your Personal Data so that it can no longer be associated with you, in which case it is no longer Personal Data.
Storage Location
The Personal Data that you provide to us is generally stored on servers located in the United States. If you are located in another jurisdiction, you should be aware that once your Personal Data is submitted through our site, it will be transferred to our servers in the United States and that the United States currently does not have uniform data protection laws in place.
Correction and Removal
If any of the information that we have about you is incorrect, or you wish to have information (including Personal Data) removed from our records, you may do so by visiting your CUPA-HR Profile, or contacting us at [email protected].
