Here is how we handle information about your visit to our website. As you can see, the information we receive depends upon what you do when visiting our site:
If you do nothing during your visit but browse through the website, read pages, or download information, we will gather and store certain information about your visit automatically. This information does not identify you personally. We automatically collect and store only the following information about your visit:
If you choose to provide us with personal information as in an e-mail message or by filling in our form to join EDSITEment's mailing list, we use that information to respond to your message and to add your name and address to our mailing list in order to send you electronic and print EDSITEment announcements.
Information collected by the Endowment will not be used for commercial or marketing purposes; data, however, may be used for educational and scholarly research.
Our policy is to not collect personal information from children, meaning those under 18 years of age, through the "EDSITEment" website. We at the National Endowment for the Humanities are especially concerned about protecting children's privacy. We hope parents and teachers are involved in children's Internet explorations. The "EDSITEment" website contains resources for teachers with information, lesson plans, and classroom activities for students and families, but these activities do not involve the online collection of personal information from children.
