Privacy Policy

The Public Risk Management Association (“PRIMA,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) operates https://primacentral.org/ (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit the Site, engage with our content, or interact with us through membership, events, or communications. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

We collect information in two ways. First, information you provide directly, such as when you register for membership, sign up for events, subscribe to communications, or contact us. This may include your name, email address, phone number, organization, job title, and related details. Second, we collect certain information automatically when you visit the Site, including your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and general usage patterns. This information helps us understand how the Site is used and improve its performance.

We use this information to operate and improve the Site, manage membership and event participation, respond to inquiries, communicate with you, and support the overall mission of PRIMA. Where required under applicable law, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we rely on appropriate legal bases for processing your information. These may include your consent, the performance of a contract (such as membership or event participation), compliance with legal obligations, or our legitimate interests in operating and improving the Site and our services.

Like most websites, we use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your experience. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that allow the Site to function properly, remember preferences, and understand how visitors interact with content. Some cookies are necessary for the Site to operate, while others help us analyze usage or improve functionality. Where required by law, we will obtain your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, although doing so may affect how the Site functions.

We may work with third-party service providers to support our operations, including website hosting, analytics, communications, and event management. These providers may process information on our behalf and may be located outside your country of residence. Where personal data is transferred internationally, including outside the European Economic Area, we take appropriate steps to ensure it is protected in accordance with applicable data protection laws, such as through standard contractual clauses or other approved mechanisms.

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with service providers who assist in our operations, or where required by law, or when necessary to protect our rights, users, or the integrity of the Site.

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, including providing services, maintaining records, and complying with legal obligations. We take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to safeguard your information, although no system can be completely secure.

If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have certain rights under GDPR. These may include the right to access your personal data, request correction or deletion, restrict or object to processing, and request data portability. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a relevant supervisory authority.

The Site may include links to external websites. PRIMA is not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those third-party sites. This Site is not intended for children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
