Internet Protocol Address:
We collect an IP address from all visitors to our Site. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the Internet. We use IP addresses to help diagnose problems with our server, administer our Site, analyze Site usage and trends, track users’ movements, gather broad demographic information for aggregate use in order to improve our Site, and respond to your inquiries. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Use of “Cookies:”
Our Site may use cookies to enhance your experience while on our Site. Cookies are pieces of information that some websites transfer to the computer that is browsing that website and are used for record-keeping purposes on many websites. Use of cookies makes web-surfing easier by performing certain functions such as saving your passwords and your personal preferences regarding your use of the particular website and ensures you don’t see the same ad repeatedly. Many consider the use of cookies to be an industry standard.
Your browser is probably set to accept cookies. However, if you would prefer not to receive cookies, you can alter the configuration of your browser to refuse cookies. If you choose to have your browser refuse cookies, it is possible that some areas of our Site will not function properly when you view them. By accepting this Privacy Policy, you specifically agree to our use of cookies.
Security:
All information provided to The Northeast Earth Coalition is transmitted using SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption. SSL is a proven coding system that lets your browser automatically encrypt, or scramble, data before you send it to us. We also protect account information by placing it on a secure portion of our Site that is only accessible by certain qualified employees of The Northeast Earth Coalition. Unfortunately, however, no data transmission over the Internet is 100 percent secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of such information.
Disclosure:
We may disclose personally identifiable information in response to legal processes (for example, in response to a court order or subpoena). We also may disclose such information in response to a law enforcement agency’s request or where we believe it necessary to investigate, prevent or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of our Terms of Use, or as otherwise required by law. Agents and contractors of The Northeast Earth Coalition who have access to personally identifiable information are required to protect this information in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy by, for example, not using the information for any purpose other than to carry out the services they are performing for The Northeast Earth Coalition. Although we take appropriate measures to safeguard against unauthorized disclosures of information, we cannot assure you that personally identifiable information we collect will never be disclosed in a manner that is inconsistent with this Privacy Policy.

Upon request, we will provide you with access to the information we maintain about you, including contact information. You may correct and update this information by providing us with the correct information.
