The Long Beach-South Bay Chapter of the California Association of Marriage and Family
Therapists ("LBSB-CAMFT") has created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm
commitment to privacy, so that you, the user, will be aware of the uses made of
information that may be generated as a result of you using our website.
Information Generated when you visit the CAMFT Website: Depending upon your use
of the LBSB-CAMFT website, certain types of personal and non-personal information
may be collected. For example, you may give us your name, license number, or email
address when you complete an application, respond to a questionnaire or submit an
email to CAMFT. Any personal information that you provide to us will be used by
LBSB-CAMFT to fulfill the stated objective for which the information was requested
or collected (e.g. if information is provided as a result of you emailing us, we
will use the information provided, such as email address, to respond to you). In
addition, such information may be used to update your member record in our database.
Other information that may be generated and collected when you use the LBSB-CAMFT
website may be non-personal in nature. For example, we may collect the date and
time you access the LBSB-CAMFT website or the Internet address of the website from
which you linked directly to the LBSB-CAMFT website. We use this information to
measure the number of visitors to the different sections of the website and to help
make the LBSB-CAMFT website more useful to visitors.
"Find a Qualified Local Therapist":
LBSB-CAMFT is a private trade association consisting of mental health professionals.
As one of the many benefits of membership, we make available on our website a searchable
database of therapists. Find a Qualified Local Therapist is intended to be used
by members of the public to locate and contact mental health professionals in their
area by such characteristics as name, specialties, certifications, and geographical
location.
If you are a member of LBSB-CAMFT and would like to be removed from Find a Qualified
Local Therapist, please contact the VP of Membership.
"Contact Us":
Like most sites on the Internet, our website contains a feature that allows you
to contact us with your comments or questions. When using this feature, there is
a list of contact options.
Links to Other Sites:
In some areas of our website, we have included links to other Internet sites which
we feel add to or improve the quality of our website. While we hope you find these
links helpful, we cannot assume responsibility for the privacy practices or the
content of any linked site. Therefore, we encourage you to investigate and determine
the privacy policy and practices of any linked site prior to providing information
to the linked site.
Surveys:
LBSB-CAMFT may from time to time create and use surveys on our Website. Most surveys
are simple "click box" surveys where you click a box on the screen to indicate your
response. However, we may from time to time ask you for your name, email address
or demographic information. If a survey does ask you this information, we will use
the information solely to complete the survey, compile statistics and update CAMFT
member records.
Listservs, Message Boards, etc:
LB-SB-CAMFT may provide forums, listservs, message boards, and/or news groups on
our website. These features will be helpful to the users of our website. However,
LBSB-CAMFT will not monitor them regularly nor will LBSB-CAMFT be responsible for
what is said on or done as a result of them. Please remember that any information
you disclose on these types of features will be accessible to the public and you
should exercise caution prior to disclosing any personal information on these features.
Each listserv or other informational forum will have its own terms of use, which
you must read and agree to prior to its use.
A listserv is a program that sends emails to the addresses on the listserv's list.
LBSB-CAMFT listservs may only be available if you affirmatively sign up to participate.
If you decide you do not want to participate in a particular listserv, the first
email you receive from the listserv should provide you instructions on how to opt
out of the service.
Disclosures Required by Law:
We may disclose information provided by you if we are legally required to do so,
such as by court order or subpoena.
Security:
LBSB-CAMFT has implemented reasonable security measures to protect against the loss,
theft, misuse and alteration of information collected or exchanged on our website.
If you are concerned about the security of the Internet or our website, we suggest
that you not provide this information.
Corrections/Updates:
If you are a LBSB-CAMFT member and there is information about you on our website
that needs to be corrected or updated, please feel free to email our VP of Membership.
In order for the correction or update to be permanent, we may need to verify such
changes with you by telephone or other means.
Contacting our Website:
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, the practices of the LBSB-CAMFT
website, or any other concerns about the LBSB-CAMFT website, please feel free to

Changes to Privacy Policy Statement:
LBSB-CAMFT reserves the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time. In the
event we make any material changes to our Privacy Policy, we will notify you by
updating the Policy's Effective Date and indicating the previous Effective Date.
As you use the LBSB-CAMFT website, we encourage you to periodically visit our Privacy
Policy to check for possible updates or changes. Your continued use of the CAMFT
website will constitute your agreement to and acceptance of any changes we make
and if you do not agree with a change, please refrain from using our website.
