Our web server does not automatically recognize or collect personal information based on your email address.

Use of Information
NEF uses the information you submit voluntarily to us to send you electronic communications such as our e-newsletter, and various printed publications or mail appeals, and to help administer and improve our web site. Please note that we use this information for internal purposes only.

Protecting Personal Information
When you give NEF personal information, we take steps to ensure that your information is treated securely.

NEF uses commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the security of any personal information on our systems, and to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of information transmitted to us. Of course, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
