Your privacy is important to us.
We will not sell or rent your information to others.

General Statement
Scrum Inc. (“we” or “the Company”) understands the importance of protecting the privacy of personal information, especially in today’s increasingly electronic environment. Scrum Inc. does not maintain or store “personal information” as defined in applicable Massachusetts regulations, meaning that we do not store your Social Security number, driver’s license number or your financial, credit card or debit card numbers. In connection with payment processing for credential renewals, agile education membership fees, or a training event, “personal information” may be collected by our third party payment processors (Stripe),  who is PCI compliant. You may find more information about their data collection and retention policies at the following links: https://stripe.com/privacy .

When you provide your email address to us, we use it to send you information about our work. We do not sell or rent your information to others. Most emails include a link which allows recipients to unsubscribe. Alternately, you may submit the contact us form on our website, if you wish to stop receiving emails.

Data Security
The security of your personal information is very important to us and we are committed to protecting the information we collect. We have put in place appropriate physical, technical and administrative procedures to minimize the risk of unauthorized access to User Data, to maintain its accuracy and to ensure its appropriate use.

All credit card transactions are managed by a reputable 3rd party agent. We use industry-standard encryption technologies when transferring and receiving financial data. This includes the use of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).
