Privacy Policy

Overview

A privacy policy is a written, published statement that articulates the policy position of an organization on how it handles the personally identifiable information that it gathers and uses in the normal course of business. The policy should include information relating to the processes of information collection, analysis, maintenance, dissemination, access, expungement, and disposition. 

The purpose of the policy is to articulate publicly that UPSIDEHOM will adhere to legal requirements and policy determinations that enable gathering and sharing of information to occur in a manner that protects personal privacy interests. A well-developed and implemented privacy policy uses resources wisely and effectively; protects the organization and the individuals; and promotes public trust.
