Privacy statement

 

The Brazilian Network of Biological Informations (Rede Brasileira de Informações Biológicas - REBIBIO), recognizes the importance of protecting the privacy of information provided by visitors to our websites. We have created the following data collection policies to demonstrate our commitment to the issue of privacy.

Website user information collected by REBIBIO
The REBIBIO collects information about users during their registration for some of our websites, on-line surveys, discussion forums, opted-in e-mail newsletters, and through the use of cookies. When web site users request pages, our server automatically recognizes and collects the domain name and IP address of visitors to our web sites (see below).

User Information Collected by REBIBIO
In order for you to subscribe to Brazilian Journal of Biological Sciences, access your subscriber data on-line, or utilize our customization features, you will need to provide us with certain personally identifiable information. Some examples of this type of information include your name, address, phone number, billing address, and e-mail address. You will only be asked to provide personal information that is essential to complete or participate in the activity that you have selected.

Use of Information
REBIBIO takes every precaution to protect users' information from unauthorized use. When users submit sensitive information via our web sites, the information is considered confidential both on-line and off-line. We do not allow public access to the portion of the server that contains user information.

E-mail addresses provided to us will only be used to send relevant and important REBIBIO correspondence, such as notifying journal subscribers a subscription has expired, or alternatively, to send a user their opted-in e-mail newsletter. REBIBIO strictly enforces e-mail privacy and therefore, e-mail addresses are never sold or provided to third parties. Additionally, upon request, REBIBIO will remove users (and their information) from our database or permit them to "opt-out" of any further e-mail newsletters that they had previously signed up for.

Our web server automatically recognizes and collects the domain name and IP address of visitors to our websites. In addition, we collect aggregate tracking information derived mainly from tallying page views throughout our sites, and information volunteered by the visitor, such as survey information and/or site registrations. The information we collect is used to improve the content of our web pages, customize the content and/or layout for each individual visitor, and for us to contact visitors about our products and services as explained below.

If a visitor has enabled cookies in their browser, we will send a cookie file that will only store a unique, random session ID that is maintained throughout the session to track the pages visited. This allows us to provide our site visitors with certain conveniences, such as delivering unique content and helping with lost passwords.

Postal addresses collected on-line may be used for periodic mailings from us with information on new products and services or upcoming events, and from other reputable companies. We allow registered users of our publications and services to "opt out" of receiving postal mail from third companies. If you do not wish to be contacted by third-party companies, you may check the button on the subscribe form or user registration form to indicate your preference. You may also provide your name and postal address to our Customer Service manager, and they will be sure your name is removed from the list we share with other organizations. When contacting us, please include the titles of publications to which you subscribe.
