Notice of Privacy Practices
Welcome to the Professional Association of Treatment Homes (PATH’s) website.
We've created this privacy policy because we respect the privacy of visitors
who come to our site. Please read this policy carefully because we want you
to understand the types of information collected on our website, the ways in
which that information is used and protected, and the choices you have about
collection of that information. If you have
any questions, comments or concerns, please contact us:

Website Privacy Policy Do I Have to Submit Any
Personal Information When I Visit the PATH Inc. Website?
No. You don't need to give us any identifying information about yourself in
order to access most of the PATH website. You can visit our pages and learn
about our programs and services without sharing any personal information.
Does PATH Collect Any Non-Personal Information from
Its Website Visitors? Yes. Whenever you access PATH's
website to read or download information, PATH collects certain
non-identifying information from you. This information includes the number
assigned to your computer whenever you access the internet (your "IP
address"), the name of the domain from which you access the Internet (i.e.
AOL.com), the time and date you access our site, the web pages you accessed,
and the Internet address of the website from which you linked to the PATH
website. None of this non-personal information allows us to identify
or contact you. We use this information to help us evaluate how our website
is being used. By gathering this information, we can learn, among other
things, how many people visit www.PATH.org, which PATH pages are most and
least popular, and which other websites are the most frequent referral
sources for the PATH website. We use this information to make our web pages
more useful to our visitors. We may also use the information to direct
general marketing strategies, but will not market to you individually.
When Does PATH Collect Personal Information from
Its Visitors? If you decide to take advantage of some of
our online services, we may collect from you certain identifying
information. For example if you want to make a donation to PATH you will be
asked for your name, address, email address and perhaps other personal
information. Please remember that you can always choose not to participate
in services requiring the submission of such information.
How Might PATH Use the Personal Information that Is
Collected? The information we collect is used to improve
the content of our web page, to send out mailings with information on new
products and services or upcoming events, and to contact consumers for
marketing purposes. From time to time, we may use customer
information for new, unanticipated uses not previously disclosed in our
privacy notice. If our information practices change at some time in the
future we will post the policy changes to our Web site to notify you of
these changes and provide you with the ability to opt out of these new uses.
If you are concerned about how your information is used, you should check
back at our Web site periodically. How Does
PATH Protect Security and Confidentiality? To protect your
privacy, we use technologies and processes such as encryption, access
control procedures, network firewalls, physical security and other measures.
In addition, we allow only authorized employees access to personal
information. Although we cannot guarantee there will be no unauthorized
access to personal information, these measures increase the security and
privacy of information traveling to, from and within www.PATH.org.
Who Can I Contact with Privacy Questions?
If you have any questions or concerns about this privacy policy, please
contact us by mail, telephone, or email at the addresses listed above.
Will This Privacy Policy Change?
If PATH makes any changes to this policy, we will post them on this page.
Because we will post changes without notice, please check back here
periodically.
