Online Privacy Statement
Effective May 25, 2019
We at Child Behavior Therapy with Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT 2) want the CBT 2 website to be a safe and private place for users. We will do our part by not requiring you to register or provide any information at all to use most sections and features of the CBT 2 website. In turn, you can do your part by reading this Online Privacy Statement and taking the steps outlined below.
1. Acceptance
During your use of the CBT 2 website you may be prompted to provide personal
information. This is information you provide which personally identifies you,
including, but not limited to, your name, email address, mailing address, and
telephone number. Any time you provide personal information to us, this Statement
will govern our use of the information you have provided. This Statement does not
apply to information collected by third parties or offline.
By submitting personal information to us, you agree that we may use the information
in accordance with this Statement. We will update this Statement as we deem
necessary, and we will post any changes here so that you are continually aware of
what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we
disclose it. You should be sure to reread this Statement in its entirety from time to
time. Your continued use of the CBT 2 website will constitute your acceptance of such
changes.
2. Information Collection and Use
There are certain actions and areas of the CBT 2 website that will require you to provide personal information. These include, but are not limited to:
- signing up for email or newsletters
- requesting an appointment
- submitting user content
If you do submit information to us, we will use that information for the purposes for
which it was submitted. We may also use your information to personalize
communication to you and keep you informed about other CBT 2-related activities,
or as otherwise disclosed to you at the point of collection.
We automatically collect and store some information about your computer and your
visit and store it in log files. This information includes information such as your
computer’s IP address and the domain from which you access the Internet. We use
this information to formulate statistics that show the number of visitors to the
different sections of the CBT 2 website and to help us make this website more useful
to visitors. These statistics do not reveal personal information.
We use third-party vendors to provide services on the CBT 2 website and in our offline business operations. The information that you submit on this website may be provided to those vendors on a confidential basis so that those vendors can provide services on our behalf. These services include, but are not limited to, donor contact management, credit card processing, email delivery, web analytics, and job application processing. A third-party vendor’s collection and use of personal information is governed by the policies of that vendor.
4. Charitable ContributionsWe do not sell, rent, or trade our donor’s names or personal information to or with any other entity, nor do we send mailings to our donors on behalf of other organizations. If you choose to make an online donation, you will have to provide your credit card billing information to a third-party payment processor. The third- party payment processor will process your credit card transaction and send CBT 2 a transaction report that contains some of the personal information it collects (e.g. name and contact information) but not your credit card information.
5. Email a FriendIf you use the Email a Friend service to tell a friend about the CBT 2 website or newsletter, we will ask you for your email address and your friend’s email address. We will automatically send your friend a one-time email inviting him or her to visit this website using your email address as the “from” email address. CBT 2 does not use your email address or your friend’s email address for any other purpose. We will use the information you provide only to send the email you request.
6. Special Information for Children Under 13 and Their Parents
CBT 2 is committed to providing a safe and secure online experience for children
who visit the CBT 2 website and their families. Consistent with the Children’s Online
Privacy Protection Act of 1998, CBT 2 does not knowingly request personally
identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13 without prior verifiable
parental consent. If you are under 13 and would like to access any areas of the CBT 2
website that require your information, please have your parent or guardian send an
email to the address below with a verifiable identity, giving us permission to allow
you to utilize these areas. To respect the privacy of parents, information collected and
used for the sole purpose of obtaining verifiable parental consent or providing notice
is not maintained in retrievable form by CBT 2 if parental consent is not obtained
after a reasonable time.
If we have not received parental consent for a user who states or is found to be under
13, we cannot, by law, provide information to or respond to questions from that user.
If we learn that we have collected information from a child under 13 without parental
consent, we will delete that information. Parents can request to review personal
information collected from children, ask that information about their children be
deleted, or revoke their consent by contacting us via email. To do this, we must verify
the identity of the requesting parent. When a parent revokes consent, we will stop
collecting and using information from that child.
If you are located outside India, you should be aware that the laws of India may be deemed to have inadequate data protection by your country. If you are located outside India and voluntarily submit personal information through the CBT 2 website, you consent to the use of that information as provided by this Statement and to the transfer of that information to, and storage of that information in, India. The personal information we collect is processed in accordance with this Statement and applicable law, wherever your information is located.
8. Use of Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed either on your computer’s hard drive or in
your computer’s random-access memory. We use cookies to make the CBT 2 website
easier to navigate, store visitor preferences, and record past activity to provide better
service. Most browsers allow a user to accept or deny cookies. If you deny cookies,
you may still use the CBT 2 website, but certain website functions may not work

The CBT 2 website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google,

not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google.
9. Security
We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us in order to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information you have provided. The security measures used on the CBT 2 website include, but are not limited to, industry-standard Secure Socket Layer technology, firewalls and internal policies to maintain the security of stored data. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or of electronic storage is 100 percent secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you are worried because your communication is very sensitive, do not send it electronically.
10. Links to Third-Party WebsitesThe CBT 2 website contains links to other websites that are owned or operated by third parties. In some cases, the CBT 2 website may also include embedded tools or widgets that are provided and controlled by third parties, or that permit you to submit information to third parties (e.g. Facebook). CBT 2 is not able to protect your privacy once you leave the CBT 2 website. When you visit other websites, check each one’s privacy policy yourself and be careful about the information you submit or share.
