Protecting Your Privacy
Your privacy is important to us. American pledges to be responsible when gathering your personal information and to protect your privacy. Although this Privacy Policy is not a contract and does not create any legal rights, it does serve as an expression of American's commitment to protecting private personal information. American reserves the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time and will notify users of any material changes by updating the policy here and by including a "NEWLY UPDATED" label with the "PRIVACY POLICY" link on the web sites governed by this policy for 30 days after any material changes are made.

Information We Collect and How We Collect It
We collect personal information about you, including your name and address, from:

- You, when you voluntarily provide us with information;
- Your browser, when you visit our websites and your browser interacts with us;

Aggregate Information
In addition to obtaining your personal information, when you use our site, we may collect tracking information such as your browser type, the type of operating system you use, the name of your Internet service provider, and pages visited on the site. American gets this information by using technologies, including cookies and web beacons to increase the functionality and user-friendliness of our site and to better tailor our site to our visitors' needs. We also use this information to verify that visitors meet the criteria required to process their requests. None of this tracking information identifies you personally; we collect it for reporting onsite activity in the aggregate. For example, we may want to know how long the average user spends on our site or which pages or features get the most attention.

Minors
American does not knowingly collect personal identifiable information from children under the age of 13. If you are under the age of 13, please do not provide personally identifiable information of any kind whatsoever.

How Your Information Will Be Used
American will use the information you provide for the purpose of providing you with facts on current contract negotiations between American Airlines and the Allied Pilots Association (APA) and the Transport Workers Union (TWU) representing American Airlines Dispatchers. These facts will include the status of our discussions, along with news and information that affects our business and our industry. To facilitate providing these facts to you, we will transmit your information to third parties. These third parties are subject to stringent data security and confidentiality requirements.

To the extent required by law, we may disclose personally identifiable information to government authorities, or to third parties pursuant to a subpoena or other legal process, and we may also use or disclose your information as permitted by law to protect the rights or property of American, our customers, our website, or its users.

American does not sell your information or share your email address with third parties except in compliance with this policy. However, we may disclose your information to companies affiliated with American and/or unaffiliated third parties to fulfill the products and services you have requested.

Links to Other Sites
We'd also like to remind visitors that we provide additional links to resources we think you'll find useful. These links will lead you to sites that may operate under different privacy practices. Our visitors are responsible for reviewing the privacy statements for such other websites, as we have no control over information that is submitted to these companies.

This policy was last updated on June 18, 2007.
