The CRDA is a non-profit entity created to identify and market the diverse recreational, entertainment, cultural and historical attractions in Atlantic City and its surrounding region. The CRDA is dedicated to serving your needs. We care about your privacy and have implemented a privacy policy that clearly outlines the policies and terms of use applicable to this site and your use thereof. Information We Collect There are three types of information that can be collected on this website - usage information, non-personal information and personal information. Usage Information - Our web server automatically recognizes and saves the domain name and IP address through which you arrived on the website. Other aggregate, site information we may collect includes information like entry page, time on site and number of page views. This data is used for internal review of traffic patterns to and on our site and can help us to improve our users' experience. None of this information is personally identifiable and will only be used to find out how site visitors use our services and the site. Non-Personally Identifiable Information - We may also request non-personally identifiable information, such as annual income range, buying preferences, your location, education and age range, also known as demographic and profile data but this information is optional. This data helps us to determine the interests of our site visitors and lets us tailor site content, events and news, accordingly. Aggregate and anonymous information may be shared with our member organizations but the CRDA does not sell this information to third parties.

This information is added to the CRDA database, but its use is limited to updating your Non-PII information and responding to your requests. The CRDA does not collect or store any personal information that you do not expressly provide, nor will it send you any additional s past satisfying your request unless you expressly agree to receive these s. This is called "opting in." If you opt in, you will receive occasional s from the CRDA notifying you of events, concerts and regional or travel news of interest. You may unsubscribe at any time.
