It is United Zion Retirement Community (hereafter referred to as “United Zion”) policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website, https://www.uzrc.org/.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, United Zion 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. United Zion’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how United Zion’s visitors use its website. From time to time, United Zion may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
United Zion also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on United Zion’s member sites. United Zion only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that site commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the site where the comment was left.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to United Zion’s website choose to interact with United Zion in ways that require United Zion to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that United Zion gathers depend on the nature of the interaction. Those who engage in transactions with United Zion are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, United Zion collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with United Zion. United Zion does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
Aggregated Statistics
United Zion may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its website. United Zion may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, United Zion does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
United Zion discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on United Zion’s behalf or to provide services available at United Zion’s website, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using United Zion’s website, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. United Zion will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, United Zion discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when United Zion believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of United Zion, third parties or the public at large.

United Zion takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
