2. How FMS Alumni Association protects the privacy of your data?
Only FMS Alumni Association registered user can enter, edit, and use their data. These data are kept secure and private through the following means:
Without proper authentication, outside access to FMS - Alumni Association customer data is virtually impossible, given the multiple layers of firewalls and security measures that have been put in place. These protections notwithstanding, FMS - Alumni Association is careful to prepare for all foreseeable contingencies. FMS - Alumni Association therefore automatically backs up all customer data every night, with back-ups stored on non-degradable media in a fireproof, off-site location, making it possible to restore customer data should the unthinkable happen and some portion of the FMS - Alumni Association database be corrupted or destroyed.
3. What are cookies and how does FMS - Alumni Association use them?
As part of its provision of individualized, user-configurable accounting services, FMS - Alumni Association uses “cookies” to store and sometimes track information about you. A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a web server and that is subsequently stored on your computer’s hard drive. All areas within the FMS - Alumni Association service where you subsequently are prompted to log in or that are customizable require that you accept cookies.
Generally, we use cookies to:
Remind us of who you are and to access your account information (stored on our servers) in order to keep your information private and secure and to make sure your information and only your information is accessible to you. This cookie is set when you register or sign in, and is modified, as necessary, when you sign out of our services.
Measure certain traffic patterns, including which areas of FMS - Alumni Association web site and services you have visited and your visiting patterns in the aggregate. We use this research to understand how our users’ habits are similar or different from one another so that we can improve the quality of the FMS - Alumni Association service.
FMS - Alumni Association also collects IP addresses for system administration purposes. Please note, however, that, while FMS - Alumni Association may sometimes supply aggregate traffic or behavioural data to third parties, we will never sell or rent any of the personally identifiable information that we collect from you. This data is stripped of all personally identifiable information. Thus, it contains no personal information about you that would allow third parties to identify you, have access to your financial data, or contact you by telephone, e-mail, or other means.

FMS - Alumni Association may share this aggregated data with advertisers or business partners. However, no personal identifiable information is shared in this manner.

We recommend that you do not divulge your password to anyone. FMS - Alumni Association will never ask you for your password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited e-mail. Also remember to sign out of your FMS - Alumni Association account and close your browser window when you have finished your work. This will ensure that others cannot access your personal information if you share a computer with someone else or are using a computer in a public place like a library or Internet cafe. FMS - Alumni Association may store your personal data in a location different from its physical offices. As described above, regardless of where this occurs, FMS - Alumni Association takes steps to ensure that your information is treated securely and in accordance with the relevant Terms of Service and Use Agreement and this Privacy Policy.
FMS - Alumni Association places top priority on the security and privacy of its customer data, and, as spelled out in FMS - Alumni Association Terms of Service agreement, strives for the highest practicable degree of security. Be advised, however, that, for a variety of inherent technical reasons, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, FMS - Alumni Association cannot absolutely ensure or warrant the security of any information that you transmit to us or from our services, either during or subsequent to transmission. Hence, while we have architectured our system to be extremely secure, you ultimately transmit such information at your own risk.
11. How does FMS - Alumni Association protect children’s privacy?
Because the FMS - Alumni Association service is a business service, it is neither designed nor intended to be used by children. The site provides no content likely to be of interest or relevance to children, and FMS - Alumni Association neither solicits nor knowingly accepts registrations for its service from children. In any event, there is no content on the FMS - Alumni Association web site nor on any of FMS - Alumni Association services that is offensive to or inappropriate for children.
12. What else should I know about my privacy?
Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information online—for example, on message boards, through e-mail, or in chat areas-that information can be collected and used by others. In short, if you post personal information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return. Having said that, there is no content on the FMS - Alumni Association site nor any of FMS - Alumni Association services that would be offensive to or inappropriate for children. Ultimately, you are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your company ID, user ID, password, and/or any account information. Please be careful and responsible whenever you are online or otherwise communicating with people about your FMS - Alumni Association account.
