We collect the information We need to provide the UCoA Community with the information, products and services that members of that community request and to update, promote, and distribute our products and services to meet the needs of the UCoA Community as they evolve.
If You request information, products or services from UCoA, We will ask You to provide the information We need to respond to Your request. No one is required to provide any information to Us at any time.
