It is LMA/LMF policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting personally identifiable information you may provide us through the website. We have adopted this privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) to explain what information may be collected on our website, how we use this information, and under what circumstances we may disclose the information to third parties. This Privacy Policy applies only to information we collect through the website and does not apply to our collection of information from other sources.
This Privacy Policy sets forth the general rules and policies governing your use of our website. Depending on your activities when visiting our website, you may be required to agree to additional terms and conditions.
Website visitors
Like most website operators, LMA/LMF 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. LMA/LMF’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how LMA/LMF’s visitors use its website. From time to time, LMA/LMF may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
As of July 1, 2021, this website does not accept comments on posts, or uploads of media files or other documents, from end users. Interactions with end users that result in LMA/LMF collecting end user personally identifying information are limited to user-initiated actions such as submitting event registration forms, newsletter subscription requests, or grant applications via third-party platforms.
Certain visitors to the website choose to interact with LMA/LMF in ways that require us to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that LMA/LMF gathers depends on the nature of the interaction.
LMA/LMF also may collect potentially personally identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users, users completing and submitting website forms, users leaving comments on website posts, or users uploading media files or documents to the website. LMA/LMF only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described in this Privacy Policy.
Security
The security of your Personal Information is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that complete and submit a form or newsletter subscription, or register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide for the purpose of enacting their specific requests.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, have submitted a form, or left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Advertisements
Ads appearing on our website may be delivered to users by advertising partners, who may set cookies. These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by LMA/LMF and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.

Aggregated statistics
LMA/LMF may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its website. LMA/LMF may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, LMA/LMF does not disclose your personally-identifying information.
Cookies
To enrich and perfect your online experience, LMA/LMF uses “Cookies”, similar technologies and services provided by others to display personalized content, appropriate advertising and store your preferences on your computer.
A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. LMA/LMF uses cookies to help LMA/LMF identify and track visitors, their usage of the website, and their website access preferences. LMA/LMF visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using LMA/LMF websites, with the drawback that certain features of LMA/LMF websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
