PRIVACY POLICY
This Privacy Policy explains how the Consortium Management Group, Inc. (“CMG”, “we”, or “us”), collects, uses and discloses information about you. This Privacy Policy applies when you use this website or contact us via e-mail. The purpose of this website is to provide information about the Naval Aviation Systems Consortium (NASC) to the general public. For site security purposes and to ensure that this service remains available to all users, our computer system employs software programs to monitor network traffic to identify unauthorized attempts to upload or change information, or otherwise cause damage. We are always conscious and respectful of your personal privacy and we recognize the importance of protecting your personal information. We have provided this Privacy Policy to inform you how we intend to treat your Personal Information. Most visitors to this website will not leave any Personal Information; however, we believe you should be aware of the extent of information gathered. That being said, this Privacy Policy will answer any questions you may have about the kind of information we may collect and how we may use it when you visit this website and/or send us an e-mail.
INFORMATION COLLECTION AND USE
Except for authorized law enforcement investigation and to maintain required correspondence files, no other attempts are made to identify individual users or their usage habits. Raw data logs are used to simply determine how many users are accessing the site, which pages are the most popular, and, from time to time, from which top-level domain users are coming.
When you send us an e-mail, we do retain the content of the e-mail, your e-mail address, and our response in order to handle any follow-up questions you may have. We also use this information to measure how effectively we address your concerns.
INFORMATION SHARING
We do not sell, rent, or lease your name or any other personal information to anyone. We occasionally contract with other companies to provide limited services on our behalf, including packaging, mailing and delivering purchases, sending postal mail, and processing event registration. We will only provide those companies the information they need to deliver the service, and they are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose. NASC will disclose your personal information only if required to do so by law to: (1) protect and defend the rights or property of CMG and/or NASC; (2) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on CMG and/or NASC, including lawful request by public authorities to meet national security or law enforcement requirements; and, (3) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of CMG and/or NASC customers and/or team members/partners, visitors to NASC’s website and/or the public. If we are going to disclose your information pursuant to legal process, we will give you notice so you can challenge such disclosure, unless we are prohibited by law from doing so. We will object to legal requests for your information that we believe are improper.
PROTECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
We carefully protect your data from loss, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure, alteration or destruction. Your personal information is never shared beyond CMG without your permission, except under the conditions explained above. Inside CMG, data is stored in password-controlled servers with limited access.
CHILDREN’S ONLINE PRIVACY PROTECTION
While none of the NASC webpages are directed towards children, we are committed to comply with the United States’ Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”). If a child has provided us with personally identifiable information without parental or guardian consent, the parent or guardian should e-mail us to remove the information and cancel the e-mail subscription.

Accessibility
NASC and CMG are committed to providing access to our web pages for individuals with disabilities, both members of the public and Federal employees. To meet this commitment, we will comply with the requirements of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (“Section 508”). Section 508 requires that individuals with disabilities, who are members of the public seeking information or services from us, have access to and use of information and data that is comparable to that provided to the public who are not individuals with disabilities, unless an undue burden would be imposed on us. Section 508 also requires us to ensure that Federal employees with disabilities have access to and use of information and data that is comparable to the access to and use of information and data by Federal employees who are not individuals with disabilities, unless an undue burden would be imposed on us. If you use assistive technology (such as a Braille reader, screen reader or TTY) and the format of any material on our websites interferes with your ability to access the any information, please contact info@cmgcorp.org for assistance in this matter. Please indicate the nature of your accessibility problem, the preferred format you would like to receive the material, the web address of the inaccessible material, and your contact information so that we may respond in a manner most helpful to you.
ACCESSIBILITY IN CMG PROGRAMS
CMG’s programs provide accessible products, documentation, services and websites recognizing that Section 508 mandates that when the Federal government purchases most electronic information and technology (“EIT”), including software applications, it must ensure that the EIT provides access to and use of, information or data to Federal employees with disabilities that is comparable to the access provided to Federal employees without disabilities. Moreover, under Section 508, the Federal government is also obligated to provide access to information and data to members of the public with disabilities that is comparable to the access provided to the public without disabilities, but also provides ease-of-use for those that do not have disabilities.
We understand the importance of Section 508 requirements to our customers. The regulations adopted by the Federal government to implement Section 508 generally require U.S. government agencies to purchase software solutions that are most compliant with Section 508 requirements. In addition, other customers, including state governments and international bodies, increasingly require compliance with accessibility standards when making procurement decisions. Beyond the legislative compliance, we recognize that universal design and accessibility are good business strategies. We are committed to providing accessible software products and documentation through the ongoing evolution of our business.
Recognizing that accessible software also provides ease-of-use, we incorporate universal design into our planning process. As we develop our products, documentation, services and websites, we test them with assistive technologies and with operating system accessibility extensions to assess their compliance with applicable Section 508 accessibility criteria established by the Federal government. The extent of compliance with Section 508 accessibility criteria currently varies by product. Upon request of an eligible customer, we will provide information detailing the extent to which specific products, documentation, services and websites of interest to the customer support the applicable Section 508 accessibility criteria. As accessibility requirements, standards and methodologies evolve, our customers can be assured that they will continue to have access to the most current product evolution made available in our efforts to meet current and future accessibility requirements for disabled users.
