Description - AlumniInTouch.com is a networking website ("the AWS website") provided by Alumni Web Services ("AWS") for alumni of companies and organizations ("Employers"). The site contains Contact-specific communities where current and former employees (or students or members) can register, provided that they are over 18 years of age. Unless otherwise indicated, AWS is not affiliated in any way with any Employer or sponsoring organization. Certain areas are secured and only registered users with a valid password may access them. Employer specific information in the Career Center is accessible to registered Employers. Those registered on the AWS website agree to forward information on this site only to affiliated employees, alumni or current or potential Employers.

Privacy Commitment - AWS is committed to protecting the privacy of our users. We want to provide a safe, secure user experience. We will use our best efforts to ensure that the information you submit to us remains private, and is used only for the purposes as set forth herein. To fulfill our commitment to you, we have adopted the following policies:

Registering members must provide Email addresses of at least two individuals who can verify membership eligibility. The references can be current or former employees, or two associates aware of individual's association with the community. References will only be asked to verify eligibility if there is some question concerning membership. Typically, references are a valuable resource should the joining member forget to update contact details and thereby loses touch. AWS would then contact one or both references to reconnect the member. AWS may also invite the given references to become members.

If you are unable to provide reference Email addresses, you may email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it with the names of your references, the location where you worked, the dates of your employment, dates of study, or involvement in the relevant organization, and any contact information (e.g., telephone/fax number, mailing address) of the references.

If your Email address should change, you must access your member profile and update the address to ensure that only authorized users have knowledge of the password. Each member is responsible for maintaining the accuracy of his password, and for protecting its security outside the AWS website. Under no circumstances will AWS be responsible for any damage, injury, or loss of any kind arising from or related to unauthorized use of a member's password where AWS did not cause that unauthorized use.

Members of other alumni communities only have access to the content of your community if they have registered to join your community.

AWS will not sell, lease, or otherwise distribute information on a member to third parties without that member's permission.

The AWS website is not intended for use as a mass mailing list. Member emails are accessible one at a time or in small groups through the My Contacts facility.

AWS reserves the right to change the site's search capabilities, features and terms and conditions at any time, without prior notice.

We gather and retain information about members in order to determine which features of the site are most beneficial for our users, and to help us understand how we can create a better member experience. For example, we are interested in measuring the areas visited most frequently and what services are accessed most often.

Content & Monitoring - To enrich the Alumni In Touch community, we may keep track of member activity during visits, and we require that such activity does not misuse the site. In support of this:

We do not disclose information about your individual visits to the AWS website. We do not disclose personal information that you provide, such as your name, address, email address, telephone number, etc., to any outside parties, except with your permission or as required by law.

AWS reserves the right to inspect all traffic on the AWS website, but does not routinely monitor traffic. At our absolute discretion, we will remove/alter any emails/messages/site content which we consider unacceptable. AWS will not be responsible for any damage, injury, harm, or loss of any kind arising out of the authorized or legally required disclosure of information to third parties.

You may not create any emails/messages/site content which could be illegal or harmful/offensive to others. You may not use the site to transmit any unsolicited advertising, "junk mail", "spam", or "chain letters". In case of any doubt, advice may be sought from This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it

Resumes/CVs - the AWS website includes a career center, which offers you the option of putting your resume in our database. There are two ways of doing this:

You may store your resume in our database, but not allow it to be searchable. Not allowing your resume to be searchable means that you can use it to apply for a job online, but recruiters will not be able to search for it through our resume database product.

You can store it in our database and allow it to be searchable. If you allow your resume to be searchable, then all recruiters with access to our resume database product will have access to your resume. We use our best efforts to grant access to this database only to legitimate recruiters, hiring managers, headhunters, and human resource professionals. However, we are not responsible if some other third party, such as someone posing as the aforementioned, evades security measures and gains access to the database, and, subsequently, your resume.

You may remove your resume from our searchable database at any time. However, recruiters may have previously retained a copy of your resume in their own files or databases. AWS is not responsible for the retention, or use, of resumes by third parties in these instances.

Limitation of Liability - While AWS attempts to ensure the eligibility of its members and recruiters prior to their access, AWS makes no guarantees to the accuracy or the validity of the information posted by its members or recruiters on the AWS website. Under no circumstances will AWS be responsible for any damage, injury, harm, or loss arising out of or related in any way to any information or advertising posted on the AWS website by members, recruiters, employers, or any other party.

Advertising - AWS uses various methods of online advertising including but not limited to banner advertisements. These advertisements may be targeted towards a group of individuals based on user-entered information such as, but not limited to, employment status and employer or organizational affiliation. AWS will not provide information about any individual user to any advertiser. AWS may, however, provide aggregate usage and demographic data to advertisers to understand viewing totals. AWS is not responsible or liable for the accuracy of advertising statements.

Membership - AWS reserves the right to modify, remove or refuse membership at its discretion.

Newsletter and Communications - AWS produces an electronic newsletter and other electronic communications which are distributed via the AWS website. Upon registering, you will automatically be subscribed to the electronic newsletter mailing list. You can unsubscribe at any time. The electronic newsletter and other electronic mailings will be a public feature. However, links to the password protected areas of the AWS website will only be accessible with a user name and password. Those electing to receive the electronic newsletter will also be included in other electronic mailings from time to time. These may be commercial solicitations, employment opportunities from client companies or other electronic mailings which AWS deems appropriate.

Employers - Employers and third party employment recruiters may work with AWS to post job openings. Employers do not have access to the alumni communities unless they have registered separately as a member of a particular alumni community. AWS does not proof job postings or resumes for accuracy. Contacting alumni and verifying resume details is the sole responsibility of the Employer.

Premium Membership - Membership to the basic services of the AWS website is free. AWS has the right to offer premium membership services, at a charge. All sales are final. The terms and conditions of premium membership services are contained in the Premium Membership Agreement.

All information placed on the AWS website by members and Employers becomes the property of AWS.
