Privacy Policy of the Eurographics Association

The Eurographics Association relies on the tools available on the Internet and on the World Wide Web. This holds both for the day-to-day operations of the Association (management of members, mailing, financial operations, etc) as well as for the announcement of new events, digital library services, etc. It is therefore vital for the Association that your data would be stored in our database, and that you give us your email address.

Eurographics has very strict privacy policies. These are:

• Your database records can be accessed only by you and those officers of the Association who need to have access to your data (e.g., the Secretary, the organizer of the conference, etc.). Furthermore, most of these persons have read access only; in general, you are the sole person who can change your own, personal data. Eurographics will not reveal those to any third party. (You will receive information about your login name and how to get an initial password as soon as your membership payment is complete.)
• Although we ask you to provide us with your credit card data for your membership payment, these data are not stored as part of your database record. Instead, they are deleted from our system as soon as your payment is complete. Pages on the server asking sensitive data operate under a secure web server.
• Only on behalf of the professional board of the Association emails will be posted to the email list of members. This list is used for strictly Eurographics matters only: announcement of events organized by, or sponsored by the Association, Executive Committee elections, etc. Any mail sent to the mailing list originating by other than members of the operations board will be automatically filtered and deleted without further notice.

Trusting us with your email address and your personal data ensures a smooth and timely operation for you and for the Association in general.
