The Northeastern Pennsylvania Alliance provides this Web site as a public service. NEPA does not collect personal information about visitors to this site unless it is given voluntarily.

Information Collected and Stored Automatically When you browse the NEPA Web site, certain information about your visit is gathered automatically. This information does not identify you personally. If you do nothing but browse through the site, read pages, or download information, NEPA automatically compiles and stores only the following types of data about your visit: the date and time you access the NEPA site; the pages you visit on the site; the length of your visit; the Internet domain and server Internet protocol (IP) addresses from which you access the NEPA site; the Internet browser and operating system used to access the site; if you linked to the NEPA site from a search site, the address of that Web site and the search term you used; the protocol version (HTTP, FTP) you used in accessing the NEPA site; whether you were able to successfully access pages you requested; and if you linked to the NEPA site from another Web site, the address of that Web site. This information is gathered to help NEPA make its site more useful to visitors–to determine the information visitors want and the types of technology they use. NEPA does not collect data about individuals when they visit the site. Any data collected is compiled and reviewed in the aggregate.

Information Collected Via Forms. Forms may be provided on the NEPA Web site to allow users to register online for conferences and events or to gather program information. These forms are always voluntary and are submitted to the NEPA server by the user. The information collected is stored in registration databases used to generate mailings.

Email If you send email to NEPA staff through the NEPA Web site, the personal information you provide is used only to respond to your message. NEPA does not disclose personal information outside of the agency without explicit permission.

This practice does not constitute NEPA’s endorsement of the content of these Web sites or of other organizations’ policies or products. Once users follow links or pointers to external sites, they are then subject to the privacy policies of those sites. Concerns about the appropriateness of any links or pointers on the NEPA site should be addressed to the NEPA Webmaster.
