 WorldatWork Online Privacy Policy


At WorldatWork, we care about online security as much as you do, so we’ve taken steps to ensure your personal information is safe and that all your www.worldatwork.org transactions are secure.

How We Collect Personal Information
Our Web site uses various forms and methods to make it convenient for you to request information, order publications, register for seminars or events, chat, post messages or for us to contact you. This requires that you give us contact information such as your name, e-mail address, mailing address, telephone number or credit card information.

Each time you visit our Web site, our Web server automatically recognizes your domain name, not your e-mail address. We collect aggregate information on what pages you access or visit and information volunteered by you, such as site registrations. This information is used for:

  • Internal review
  • Improving the content of our Web pages
  • Contacting you with information about our organization, products and services.

The information collected is discarded and never shared with other organizations for commercial purposes.

Cookies
WorldatWork utilizes “cookies,” pieces of information that a Web site transfers to a user’s hard drive for record-keeping purposes. Cookies make Web-surfing easier for you by saving your preferences while you are at our site. Cookies enable our server to identify you as a WorldatWork member or nonmember, and will eliminate the need for members to login each time they access our site. We use cookies only to enhance your convenience in using our site, to improve search functionality or to hold information that you would otherwise need to re-key. We do not use cookies for any other purpose. The use of cookies is an industry standard that you will find at most major Web sites.

You may decline to accept cookies sent by the site by selecting an option on your browser to reject cookies; however, portions of the site, which require registration, will not be accessible to you.

How We Keep Information Secure
WorldatWork uses industry-standard encryption technologies when transferring and receiving member and nonmember data exchanged with our site. We have appropriate security measures in place at our physical facilities to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of information that we have collected from you at our site.

WorldatWork protects you while you shop at www.worldatwork.org. WorldatWork uses the industry standard in secure server software. All of your personal information, including your credit card number and course transcripts, are encrypted before it is sent across the Internet.

Links to Other Sites
The WorldatWork Web site contains links to other Web sites that are not owned or controlled by WorldatWork. WorldatWork is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these other Web sites. You are advised to read the privacy statements of any linked site. We do not partner with or have special relationships with any ad server companies.

How We Share Information and Your Choices
We do not share WorldatWork member or nonmember e-mail addresses or sell them to any outside parties for any purpose. WorldatWork utilizes e-mail addresses for its own purposes of keeping members and customers informed about association events and providing product/service/information announcements.

Membership Directory e-mail addresses are safeguarded. Each WorldatWork member’s e-mail address in the online directory is a “blind” address, thus concealing the e-mail address but still allowing e-mail messages to be sent. The directory message volume and the content of messages may be monitored to ensure proper usage.


We offer you the opportunity to regulate the types of e-mail communications you receive from us. WorldatWork members can make changes to their personal preferences by logging on the members-only Web site of www.worldatwork.org and clicking on “My Profile.” Nonmembers can change preferences by clicking on “Change your Contact Info” under the Quick Links section of the home page.

If you supply us with your postal address online, you may receive periodic mailings from WorldatWork with information on new products and services and upcoming events. You may also receive periodic mailings from other reputable companies; however, you can have your name put on our do-not-share list. If you do not wish to receive other mailings, please let us know by sending us an e-mail to customerrelations@worldatwork.org; by calling our toll free telephone number, 877/951-9191, or 480/922-2020; or by checking the appropriate box when making the request.

If you supply us with your telephone number online, you will only receive telephone contact from WorldatWork. We do not share telephone numbers with other companies for any purpose.

Our site provides WorldatWork members the opportunity to opt-out of receiving e-mail from us:

  • Information: Survey participation and results, member news and other helpful member information
  • Product announcements and event calendars: Includes events in your area sponsored by local compensation and benefits groups.
  • workspan weekly: Weekly news and information e-newsletter

You can change your preferences at any time. Go to MY Profile (you must be logged in) and select e-mail preferences. If you have any questions or comments, contact customerrelations@worldatwork.org or 877/951-9191 or 480/922-2020.

Using Our Bulletin Boards and Online Surveys
When using WorldatWork Bulletin Boards, users are asked to review and abide by the rules and etiquette points..

All online survey data will be reported in aggregate. No individual company data is ever released or identified. Unique survey identifiers (e.g., member identification number) are kept confidential and will only be used by authorized WorldatWork staff to get in contact with survey participants if necessary.

How to Contact Us
Upon request we will provide site visitors with access to their individual customer number, password or demographic information. Visitors have the ability to access this information by contacting us at: customerrelations@worldatwork.org or calling our toll free telephone number, 877/951-9191, or 480/922-2020.
