Your privacy is very important to us. We do not sell, rent, or provide your personal information to third parties. Period.
Information Collection
Our purpose in collecting your contact information is to be able to reach you in case of a last-minute program change, and to send you relevant AAL program updates and professional development news. Information about your current position and degrees helps us in providing you with relevant updates, continuing education credits, and certificates of completion, and, if a form requests information about your gender and/or race, it is anonymized and used for research about professional development programs. If you send us personal correspondence, such as emails or letters, we may collect such information into a file specific to you, to serve you better. We do not sell, rent, or provide your personal information to third parties.
