Website visitors

Like most website operators, RH-ISAC collects non-personally identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. RH-ISAC’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how RH-ISAC’s visitors use its website. From time to time, RH-ISAC may release non-personally identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing an internal report on trends in the usage of its website.

RH-ISAC also collects potentially personally identifying information like internet protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on https://rhisac.org blog posts. RH-ISAC only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally identifying information as described below.

Gathering of personally identifying information

Certain visitors to RH-ISAC’s websites choose to interact with RH-ISAC in ways that require RH-ISAC to gather personally identifying information. The amount and type of information that RH-ISAC gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for a blog at https://rhisac.org/blog to provide an email address.

Protection of certain personally identifying Information

RH-ISAC discloses potentially personally identifying and personally identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on RH-ISAC’s behalf or to provide services available at RH-ISAC’s website, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using RH-ISAC’s website, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. RH-ISAC will not rent or sell potentially personally identifying and personally identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, RH-ISAC discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when RH-ISAC believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of RH-ISAC, third parties or the public at large.

If you are a registered user of https://rhisac.org and have supplied your email address, RH-ISAC may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with RH-ISAC and our products. We primarily use our blog to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. RH-ISAC takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally identifying and personally identifying information.

California residents: your California privacy rights

If you are a California resident, you may have the right to request and receive certain information about our disclosure of your personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes, and your choices with respect to such disclosures. Because it is our policy not to share your personal information with unaffiliated third parties for their own direct marketing purposes, we are exempt from having to meet this requirement

In cases where there is no adequacy decision by the Commission, this may for example include the use of EU model clauses (under Article 46.2 of the GDPR) or ensuring that the recipient is certified under the US-EU Privacy Shield Framework (under Article 45 of the GDPR). You may receive a copy of the relevant safeguards by contacting RH-ISAC using the contact details set forth above in this privacy policy.
