This document outlines the data or personal information collected by ICCT or affiliated services and its use. The ICCT does not share personal data with any third parties other than those specified below unless required by law to do so.
Email Newsletters
If you wish to receive periodic updates by email from the ICCT, you must provide your contact information via our sign-up page. This is a double opt-in process; after subscribing to our list, you will receive a confirmation email that you must also respond to in order to be added to the list. We use an outside vendor, MailChimp, to send email updates and store our mailing list. MailChimp collects information on undelivered emails (so that defunct addresses can be removed from the list), location, opens, and clicks. MailChimp may also transfer this personal data to certain sub-processors who perform critical services, such as abuse and fraud prevention and customer support. At any time you can unsubscribe from the list by clicking the link located at the bottom of every email newsletter. For further information on MailChimp’s privacy practices, please visit their website
