The Guild collects and uses personal information only to carry out the aims and objectives of the Guild, including but not limited to membership renewal, Guild event mailings, and listserv participation.

Web Site

With respect to cookies, the Guild uses them on the Guild Web site only to prevent repeated session time-outs for members who have logged in with the username and password. No personal information is collected. The Guild analyzes Web site user statistics by tracking domain names and referring sites. Individual IP addresses are not collected.

Member Directory

Members who opt to publish their profile in our member directory do so with the understanding that they are solely responsible for content made public there. The Guild is not responsible for any spam or unwanted contact resulting from member profiles published on the Guild Web site. Members may change their profile at any time by sending the new profile to info@edsguild.org. The Guild will update the profile, in most cases, within a day or two.

Members may choose to have their email address appear and function as a mailto link, have it appear as a link but without functioning as one, or use any of the common methods for disguising email addresses, such as info{at}edsguild[dot]org. It is the responsibility of members to update their profile and indicate how they would like their email address displayed. If no preference is indicated when the profile is sent to info@edsguild.org, the default method of showing the email address as a functioning mailto link will be used. The Guild reserves the right to edit profiles to fit the style and space limitations already in use. Members can post (or omit) any of the commonly used contact methods: phone numbers, fax numbers, email addresses, URLs.
