A. Information Collection and Use and Sharing

We are the sole owners of the information collected on this site. We have access to/collect information that you give us via direct contact from you, including form completion, examination responses, and email. At your option, you may also provide demographic information (such as gender) about yourself, but it is not required. We do not use "cookies" on this site.

In order to use the services offered on this website (for example, to buy and sign up for the Alcohol Server Permit Class), a user must register and create an account with a log-in ID and password. You must provide us with personally identifiable information (like name and address) and financial information (like credit card number, expiration date). We collect the following specific information from each user: (1) personally identifiable student information, including a name, address, phone number(s), email address, computer IP address, and date of birth; (2) student personal profile information; (3) student course activity information (including log in and log off times); (4) credit card information and financial data provided by the student; and (5) course participation work, including at least responses to exam questions and a course evaluation.

We use the information we collect from you to contact you about the products/services on our site in which you have expressed interest, to validate student participation in our course, and to report your participation in the Alcohol Server Permit Class to the state liquor control board or other state regulatory agency with jurisdiction over liquor sales. We will also use demographic information, if provided, for the purpose of determining when and where to offer classroom instruction. We use your personal and financial information for billing purposes and to fill your orders. If we have trouble processing an order, we'll use this information to contact you.

We store the information you provide to us for the period required by applicable law, including the period specified by applicable state liquor control board or other state regulatory agency.

2. As necessary to fulfill your request, for example, to report your purchase of our product or online course to the credit card company that issued the card you used to make the purchase;
3. To law enforcement

Unless you ask us not to (i.e., “opt out,”) we may contact you via email in the future to tell you about specials, new products or services, or changes to this privacy policy.

B. Your Access to and Control Over Information

C. Security

We take precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and offline.

Wherever we collect sensitive information (such as credit card data), that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for "https" at the beginning of the address of the web page. Our website uses, at a minimum 128 bit SSL encryption registered through a valid and trusted certificate authority we use Comodo.

In addition to using encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, billing or customer service) are granted access to personally identifiable information. Documents used to provide us with personally identifiable information are destroyed after the information on the documents is converted to electronic form. The computers/servers in which we store personally identifiable information in electronic form are kept in a secure environment.

If you feel that we are not abiding by this privacy policy, you should contact us immediately via telephone at 888-865-1900 or via email at tech@aacea.com
