GET TRAINED TO HELP
Privacy Notice and Terms of Use
Mental and public health programs in Clackamas, Multnomah and Washington counties have joined together to offer trainings and presentations on a regional website, called “Get Trained
To Help – Mental Health Matters for All (GTTH),” where community members and professionals can learn about and register for free mental health first aid and suicide prevention trainings.
GTTH offers classes across the region, in order to reach people desiring to learn more and help others in need. The website address is http://www.gettrainedtohelp.com
GTTH respects the privacy rights of all visitors to this website and those registering for trainings (Users). The following information details GTTH’s collection, protection, and use of the information we collect from users of this website.
What information does GTTH collect?
The Get Trained to Help.com website collects two types of information: anonymous information and personally identifiable information (PII). "Anonymous information," means information that cannot be linked to specific users. GTTH uses Google Analytics. Google Analytics captures information about User’s browser, operating system, service provider and Internet Protocol (IP) address; for mobile devices it collects the User’s operating system, service provider and screen resolution. The anonymous information collected aids in understanding, anticipating, and creating a better User experience.
A website cookie is a small text file that a web server places on a User's computer. When accessing a cookie, a web server reads a number associated with a browser, but is unable to determine any data about a User (nor, for that matter, can the server do anything else with a cookie, malicious or otherwise). With that number, a web server can tailor its information to the needs of the specific browser. We may use cookies to collect, store, and sometimes track information for statistical purposes.
"Personally identifiable information (PII)," refers to information for specific Users who have voluntarily submitted their information on the GTTH website. The PII collected on the GTTH
website is the User’s name, e-mail address, phone number(s), and zip code. Personally identifiable information (PII) will be used by Get Trained to Help.com only on a need-toknow basis, and will not be made accessible to unauthorized individuals at any time. Finally, GTTH does not collect any personally identifiable information (PII) about Users unless such information is voluntarily submitted to GTTH. This information is solely used by GTTH for a specific training registration, information, feedback, evaluation and confirmation purposes. Once a User attends a class, the User’s name and email is submitted to the
national Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) and Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training
(ASIST), as part of the trainer certification agreement with those organizations. For Users attending Mental Health First Aid classes, the User’s name, organization, community role, email and phone will be submitted to the Mental Health First Aid Oregon housed at the Association of Community Mental Health Programs for feedback and evaluation purposes. To access Privacy Policies for MHFA, Mental Health First Aid Oregon and ASIST, click on the appropriate name.
How is information used?
GTTH uses personally identifiable information (PII) to communicate with Users about available trainings, send confirmation emails about trainings that users have registered for and to respond to users’ questions or comments. Users who indicate through the registration process, on training registration rosters at individual trainings or via email that they would be willing to be contacted in the future about their experience with trainings and presentations or participate in a statewide survey authorize the use of their contact information to communicate with them for their feedback and evaluation, If Users indicate through the registration process, on training registration rosters at individual trainings or via email that they would like to be part of the mailing list for upcoming trainings and events, they will be added to an email mailing list.
GTTH also uses anonymous information to create reports about how many people attended training, the number of trainings held in a specific county, how many people attended training from a specific county, etc. The statistics are compiled into reports which help in further understanding, responding and anticipating future needs. Information voluntarily provided to GTTH by a User through this website may be subject to Oregon’s public records law and other state and federal laws governing records disclosure/confidentiality for public entities. GTTH and its participating counties will seek to keep PII about a User confidential if public disclosure would lead to an unreasonable invasion of privacy, unless a third party sufficiently demonstrates that the public interest requires disclosure under a particular circumstance.
