Portal Privacy Policy and Terms of Use

Welcome to the Association of Cancer Care Centers. This Portal Privacy Policy and Terms of Use (this “Privacy Policy”) entered into by and between the Association of Cancer Care Centers (“ACCC”, “we”, “our,” or “us”) and User (as defined below), and the organization or entity (the “Member”) on behalf of which User is accessing the portal accessible through https://cmanagementinc.my.site.com/ (the “Portal”), including the ACCCeXchange, as applicable.

This Privacy Policy does not pertain to other information that is collected offline or to information that is posted or provided by third parties or to the public-facing portions of www.accc-cancer.org/. By accessing and using the Portal, User hereby binds the User and Member (if applicable) to the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy is effective as of October 15, 2024.

1. Access to and Use of the Portal

ACCC shall make the Portal available to individual users authorized by ACCC and the Member (if applicable) (“Users”). ACCC may approve an individual as an Authorized User if the individual (a) is at least eighteen (18) years of age; and (b) is a resident of the United States of America. ACCC may approve, deny, modify, suspend, or terminate an individual request to be, or status as, a User at any time in its sole reasonable discretion.

A User’s access to and use of the Portal shall be subject to, and dependent upon compliance with, this Privacy Policy, our Community Guidelines, and all terms and conditions set forth herein. If applicable, Member shall ensure that its Users comply in full with the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy.

2. Information Collected

1. Voluntarily. In order to access the Portal, Member and/or User may provide to us certain personal information, including, but not limited to, name, job title, work email address, work phone number, home phone number, mailing address, and credit/debit card information. In addition, User may choose to share personal information with us voluntarily while accessing the Portal. For example, User may choose to register for events or webinars, or send us or other Users messages via the Portal. If a User decides to share any personal information via the ACCCeXchange, the User does so at their own risk, as any content posted on the ACCCeXchange will be visible to all Portal Users. Please see our Community Guidelines for more information about use of the ACCCeXchange.
2. Automatically. We may automatically collect certain information when User uses the Portal. For example, we may collect identifying information that allows us to track the number of Users of the Portal. The types of identifying information collected may include the date and time User uses the Portal, the User’s IP address and associated location information, as well as the operating software and browser being used to access or use the Portal.

The Portal also utilizes “cookies” to collect certain information. A “cookie” is a small text file that may be used to collect information about User activity on the Portal or to track users across the Internet. For example, when User visits a page within the Portal, a cookie may be placed on the User’s machine (if the User accepts cookies) or is read if the User has visited the Portal previously. Some of the cookies we use may be flash cookies or Adobe cookies. User may set most browsers to notify the User if User receives a cookie, or User may choose to block cookies with the browser, but if User does, certain features of the Portal may be unavailable. We employ first-party cookies to optimize API performance, offer e-commerce options, regulate User session volumes, and preserve the state of individual sessions, among other functions necessary for a seamless User experience. Additionally, third-party cookies from providers such as Google Analytics, Feathr, and Vimeo are utilized to analyze Portal traffic and interactions, enabling us to improve our services and tailor content to better suit your preferences. By continuing to use the Portal, you consent to the use of these cookies as outlined in this Privacy Policy.

If User does not want ACCC to collect this information, please do not visit the Portal.
