requires it, (ii) that disclosure is necessary to protect the rights
and property of Hadassah, our members or others, (iii) that your
actions on our Website violate the Terms and Conditions stated herein,

Is Credit Card Information Secure?
We care about the safety and security of your transaction. We use high
grade encryption and the https security protocol to communicate with
your browser software. This Web site secures your private information
using a VeriSign SSL Certificate. Information exchanged with any
address beginning with https is encrypted using SSL before
transmission. This method is a commonly used security protocol, which

technical and organizational measures designed to secure your personal
information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use,
alteration or disclosure. However, Hadassah cannot guarantee that
unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat those measures
or use your personal information for improper purposes.

How Do We Use "Cookies"?
Visitors should be aware that non-personal information and data may be
automatically collected by this Website through the use of "cookies".
"Cookies" are small text files that are stored on the visitors computer

on a user's computer. Generally, cookies work by assigning a unique
number to the visitor that has no meaning outside the assigning site.
If a visitor does not want information collected through the use of
cookies, there is a simple procedure in most browsers that allows the
visitor to deny or accept the cookie feature. Hadassah uses "cookie"
technology only to obtain non-personal information from its online
visitors in order to improve visitors' online experience and facilitate
