The United Nations Association of Australia is dedicated to keeping your details private. Any information we collect in relation to you is kept strictly secured. We do not pass on, sell or swap any of your personal details with anyone. We use this information to identify your membership, orders, provide you with our newsletter (if applicable) and to personalise your experience with us. We may use cookies to allow you to login to your account and maintain a shopping cart. Cookies sent to your computer from us only last while you’re browsing our website. We do not store persistent cookies on your computer.
Whenever you use our web site, or any other web site, the computer on which the web pages are stored (the Web server) needs to know the network address of your computer so that it can send the requested web pages to your Internet browser. The unique network address of your computer is called its “IP address,” and is sent automatically each time you access any Internet site. From a computer’s IP address, it is possible to determine the general geographic location of that computer but otherwise it is anonymous.
We do not keep a record of the IP addresses from which users access our site except where you have specifically provided us with information about yourself, in which case we may also record your IP address for security purposes. An example of this would be when proceeding to a checkout to finalise an order you may wish to make. After completing the form provided, your IP address may be stored along with a transaction number that allows us to track your order.
When purchasing from United Nations Association of Australia your financial details are passed through a secure server using the latest 128-bit SSL (secure sockets layer) encryption technology.128-bit SSL encryption is the current industry standard.

Definitions
Cookies – cookies are a small piece of data that is stored on the user’s computer by their web browser, sent by a visited website. Cookies are used to store information about a user’s use of a website for when they return, and include remembering user login information, and allowing websites to track browsing traffic to their website.
Encryption – Encryption is the process of applying mathematical algorithms to outbound information from a computer based on a cipher key to scramble the content of the outbound information. Encryption is a very complex process that can only be cracked by an outside entity if the encryption key is known. Encryption allows information to be passed securely between a computer and a server, and is virtually impossible to decrypt without the encryption key.
IP Address – an IP address is an electronic address that is specific to your network, and essentially attaches a general geographical location to your computer.
Server – a server is a physical or electronic system that stores information to be recalled. Generally, servers are protected through end-to-end encryption (computer to server encryption) but it is dependent on the encryption method required for the type of information being transferred.
