By submitting articles, comments, photographs, videos, or other information (referred to as "materials"), you grant Rett Syndrome Magazine the right to reproduce, publish, use, edit, adapt, and/or modify these materials, in any way, in any and all media throughout the world, and to associate the materials with your name, image, likeness, and biographical information, without limitation and without compensation.

Information Collection and Use
We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement. We collect information from you at several different points on our website.
Log Files
We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track you movement, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Surveys
Participation in any of our surveys is completely voluntary and you therefore have a choice whether or not to disclose this information. Information requested may include, but is not limited to, contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code, age level). Survey information will be used for purposes of Rett Syndrome Magazine research and/or monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site.
Security
This website takes every precaution to protect your personal information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and off-line. While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line. All of our users’ information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information. The servers that are used to store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.
If you have any questions about the security at our website, you can send an email to our Executive Publisher. If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes here so you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify you by way of an email. You will have a choice as to whether or not we use your information in this different manner. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected.
