Privacy Policy
The National Center for Families Learning (herein known as “NCFL”) is committed to honoring the privacy of the users of the www.familieslearning.org website. This Privacy Policy is designed to tell you about our practices regarding collection, use, and disclosure of information that you may provide via this site. Please be sure to read this entire Privacy Policy before using or submitting information to this site.
Passive Information Collection
As you navigate through a website, certain anonymous information (i.e., that does not personally identify you) can be collected without you actively providing the information. This information includes the type of browser you use, what pages on the site you view and similar technical data. Some of this anonymous data is collected through cookies. You may set your browser to notify you when a cookie is sent or to refuse cookies altogether, but certain features of this site might not work without cookies.
We may use your anonymous information to customize the site based on your preferences and compile analytics of our website users. At no time, however, does the data we use link back to your personal information. Our data gathering is anonymous in this regard.
Security Precautions
This site takes reasonable steps to protect personally identifiable information as you transmit it to our site and to protect such information from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. You should keep in mind that no Internet transmission is ever completely secure or error-free. In particular, e-mail sent to or from this site may not be secure, and you should therefore take special care in deciding what information you send to us via e-mail. Moreover, where you use passwords, or other special access features on this site, it is your responsibility to safeguard them.
When we transfer and receive certain types of sensitive information such as financial or personal information, we redirect visitors to a secure server using SSL encryption. Pages that are protected with SSL encryption will have a URL which begins with “https://” rather than “http://” to indicate a secure server environment. For more information about how SSL encryption protects your personal data click here.
Use and Disclosure of Information
Except as otherwise stated, we may use information collected via this site to improve the content of our site, to customize the site to your preferences, to communicate information to you (if you have requested it), for our marketing and research purposes, and for any other purpose specified. In addition, we may make full use of all information acquired through this site that is not in personally identifiable form.
We may disclose personally identifiable information you provide via this site to third parties, but only:
- To contractors we use to support our business (for example, technical support, delivery services for merchandise you may order, and financial institutions if you are making a transaction via the website) in which case we will require such third parties to agree to treat it in accordance with this Privacy Policy and use it for the same purposes;
- To respond to law enforcement requests or where required by applicable laws, court orders, or government regulations.
- E-mail communications – or information you provide
E-mail Communications – or Information You Provide
Like many websites, this site actively collects information from its visitors both by asking you specific questions and by permitting you to communicate directly with us. Some of the information that you submit may be personally identifiable information (that is, information that can be uniquely identified with you, such as your name, phone number and e-mail address), in order for you to benefit from the specified or related features. You will be informed what information is required and what information is optional.
