| #2: Affiliate conference organizers and societies: Members who do not opt-out may from time to time receive e-mailings from related conference organizers and societies regarding bioinformatics related information. Such notices might include conference announcements and posters, calls for papers, regional affiliate news, etc. Mailings could be from non-profit organizations or commercial enterprises. Shared information with such groups will be restricted to your personal contact information, excluding phone and fax numbers, and will not include any other details collected by ISCB for your membership registration purposes.

Such notices might include an advertisement about new hardware or software to enhance bioinformatics research, an announcement about a new book or journal, or services available to the bioinformatics community. Mailings would generally be from commercial enterprises, although some non-profits may be interested in contacting you about their products as well. Shared information with such groups will be restricted to your personal contact information, excluding phone and fax numbers, and will not include any other details collected by ISCB for your membership registration purposes. Financial information will never be disclosed, as ISCB does not store credit card information on our server, and all credit card payments are processed directly through our merchant bank. |
