Web Security Policy:
For security purposes and to make sure our website remains available
to all users, we use special software programs for monitoring network
traffic to identify unauthorized attempts to upload or change
information, or otherwise to cause damage to this computer
system. These programs collect no information that would directly
identify individuals, but they do collect information that could help us
identify someone attempting to tamper with this website.
If you use our website, you should understand that all activities
may be monitored and recorded. Anyone using this system expressly
consents to such monitoring.
WARNING -- If such monitoring reveals
possible evidence of criminal activity, monitoring records may be
provided to law enforcement officials. Except for authorized law
enforcement investigations, we make no other attempts to identify
individual users or their usage habits. We only use raw monitoring data
logs for determining trends in usage patterns and in diagnosing system
problems.
Cookies:
What are cookies? A cookie is a small piece of information that is
sent to your browser when you access a website. The use of cookies is
an industry standard and they are found at most major websites. There
are two kinds of cookies. A session cookie is a line of text that is
stored temporarily in your computer's RAM. It is never written to a
computer's drive and it is destroyed as soon as you close your browser. A
persistent cookie is a more permanent line of text that gets saved by
your browser to a file on your hard drive. Depending on your browser
settings, you may receive notification that a site is requesting cookie
information, possibly with an expiration date. Persistent cookies have a
future expiration date. Session cookies have no date associated with
them.
On those pages where psychotherapies.org.au uses "cookies" to facilitate your use of
our site, we do not collect personal information about you and the
cookie is destroyed when you exit your browser. There is no information stored on your computer and no unauthorized files
are written onto your disk drives. These cookies are called "session
cookies." They help you use our website interactively and are destroyed
when you close your browser.
These "session cookies" do not collect information about you, but
only about your browser "session." The cookie makes it easier for you to
use the dynamic features of these web pages, without having to provide
the same information as you move from one page to another. You will find
the use of these "session cookies" on several of our data access tools.
To protect your privacy, be sure to close your browser completely
after you have finished conducting business with any website that uses
cookies. If you are concerned about the potential use of information
gathered from your computer by cookies, you can set your browser to
prompt you before it accepts a cookie. Most Internet browsers have
settings that let you identify and/or reject cookies.
Information from e-mail you send to us:
If you decide to send us an e-mail message, the message will usually
contain your return e-mail address. If you include
personally-identifying information in your e-mail because you want us to
address issues specific to your situation, we may use that information
in responding to your request, but it will be destroyed when we complete
our return correspondence. Also, e-mail is not totally secure against
interception. Please send only information necessary to help us process
your request.
Voluntary Submission of Information:
On some of our web pages we provide forms that let you voluntarily
submit personal information (such as e-mail address or name). For
example, this occurs when you are registering for various conferences or
training sessions or when you sign up for our subscription
services. In those cases, all submitted information is used only for the
expressed purposes for which it is intended and is not made available to
any third party.
