NCCE Privacy Statement

Last updated: March 2015

NCCE is committed to protecting your privacy. This privacy statement explains data collection and use practices of the NCCE site (the “Site”); it also applies to other online or offline NCCE sites, products or services, unless specifically stated otherwise on such sites, products or services. By accessing the Site, you are consenting to the information collection and use practices described in this privacy statement.

Collecting Your Personal Information
NCCE will ask you when it needs information that personally identifies you or allows us to contact you. We may collect such personal information as your name, e-mail, company name.

The Site may collect certain information about your visit, such as the name of the Internet service provider and the Internet Protocol (IP) address through which you access the Internet; the date and time you access the Site; the pages that you access while at the Site and the Internet address of the Web site from which you linked directly to our site. This information is used for the operation and improvement of the Site.

Use of Your Personal Information
The personal information collected on this Site will be used to operate the Site and to provide the service(s) or carry out the transaction(s) you have requested or authorized.

In support of these uses, NCCE may use personal information to provide you with more effective customer service, to improve the Site and any related NCCE products or services, and to make the Site easier to use by eliminating the need for you to repeatedly enter the same information or by customizing the Site to your particular preference or interests.

We may use your personal information to provide you with important information about the product or service that you are using, including critical updates and notifications. Additionally, with your permission, we may send you information about other NCCE products and services, and/or share information with NCCE partners so they may send you information about their products and services.

NCCE occasionally hires other companies to provide limited services on its behalf, such as Web site hosting, packaging, mailing and delivering prizes, answering customer questions about products and services, performing member surveys, performing elections proceedings, and sending information about special offers or products. We will only provide those companies the personal information they need to deliver the service. They are required to maintain the confidentiality of the information and are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose.

NCCE may disclose personal information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on NCCE or the Site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of NCCE and its related Web sites; or (c) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of NCCE employees or agents, users of NCCE products or services, or members of the public.

Personal information collected on the Site may be stored and processed in the United States or any other country in which NCCE or its affiliates, subsidiaries or agents maintain facilities, and by using the Site, you consent to any such transfer of information outside of your country. NCCE abides by the safe harbor framework as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of data from the European Union.

Control of Your Personal Information
Except as otherwise described in this statement, personal information you provide on the Site will not be shared outside of NCCE and its controlled subsidiaries and affiliates without your permission.

Please be aware that this privacy statement and any choices you make on the Site will not necessarily apply to personal information you may have provided to NCCE in the context of other, separately operated, NCCE products or services.
