Our site uses various forms for visitors to request information, products, and services.

The visitors contact information is also used to get in touch with the visitor when necessary. Information collected is used solely by Dysphonia International and is not distributed to third parties. Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings; see the choice/opt-out section below. Financial information that is collected is used to bill the user for products and services.
Our online surveys ask visitors for contact information (like their email address). Information collected is used solely by Dysphonia Internationa and is not distributed to third parties. Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings; see the choice/opt-out section below.
Our Commitment to Data Security. We use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information. We have put in place commercially reasonable physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online, including using secure socket layer (SSL) technology where available. All media containing credit card information is stored at third-party datacenters with physical access controls in place that meet PCI (payment card industry) standards, and is subject to those third-party policies regarding data privacy and security.
Cookies. We also collect information, such as anonymous usage statistics, by using cookies, server logs, and other similar technology as you use the Online Platforms. When you visit the Dysphonia International website, your web server automatically logs (records) domain name and standard information about the operating system and Web browser you are using, as provided by your Web browser. To track your progress through the website and to help us evaluate usage of the website, the server places a “cookie” – a small text file with an identification number – on your machine or device. This automatically collected information is used for statistical purposes to help us manage the website, but it does not identify you in any way. If you disable or refuse cookies, some parts of this site may then be inaccessible or not function properly.
IP Address. We may also track Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. An IP address is a number that can identify an Internet Service Provider and country location. It cannot provide other personal information. We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our computer server, and to administer our website. Your IP address is used to help identify you, but does not contain Personal Information about you.
Third-Party Websites. This Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected by us. This Privacy Policy does not apply to other websites that are accessible through the website, including but not limited to any third-party websites that process payments on behalf of us. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of such sites and will not be responsible for any actions or policies of such third parties. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave the website to read the privacy statements of each and every website that you visit.
How We Protect Personal Information. We maintain reasonable security procedures to help protect against loss, misuse or unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction of the information you provide through our Website. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the internet or stored on a server can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information and privacy, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you disclose or transmit to us online and cannot be responsible for the theft, destruction, or inadvertent disclosure of your personal information. Accordingly, we assume no liability for any disclosure of data due to errors in transmission, unauthorized third party access or other acts of third parties.
