The American International Health Alliance, Inc. (AIHA) / the HIV/AIDS Twinning Center has created this privacy policy in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to users’ privacy. This policy describes the information we collect on the HIV/AIDS Twinning Center Web site (“the site”) and what we do with that information.
The information we receive from your visit to this Web site depends upon what you do when visiting our site. We use a variety of physical, technical, and administrative protections to help ensure the confidentiality of the information we collect through our site. The site and its data are maintained by AIHA staff on its premises. The server on which this data is stored is protected by industry-standard, e-commerce security technology. Only a limited number of AIHA staff have access to the server and the information on it. We do not sell or rent, to any third party, e-mail addresses or other personally identifiable information shared on this site.
If you have questions about the methods we use to ensure the security of the data we collect, please contact the site administrator at
