There is also information about your computer hardware and software that is automatically collected by New Labor Forum. This information can include: your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times and referring Web site addresses. This information is used by New Labor Forum for the operation of the service, to maintain quality of the service, and to provide general statistics regarding use of the New Labor Forum Web site.

Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through New Labor Forum public message boards, this information may be collected and used by others. Note: New Labor Forum does not read any of your private online communications.

New Labor Forum encourages you to review the privacy statements of Web sites you choose to link to from New Labor Forum so that you can understand how those Web sites collect, use and share your information. New Labor Forum is not responsible for the privacy statements or other content on Web sites outside of the New Labor Forum and New Labor Forum family of Web sites.

Use of your Personal Information

New Labor Forum also uses your personally identifiable information to inform you of other products or services available from New Labor Forum and its affiliates. New Labor Forum may also contact you via surveys to conduct research about your opinion of current services or of potential new services that may be offered.

New Labor Forum does not sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties. New Labor Forum may, from time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a particular offering that may be of interest to you. In those cases, your unique personally identifiable information (e-mail, name, address, telephone number) is not transferred to the third party. In addition, New Labor Forum may share data with trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis, send you email or postal mail, provide customer support, or arrange for deliveries. All such third parties are prohibited from using your personal information except to provide these services to New Labor Forum, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information.

New Labor Forum does not use or disclose sensitive personal information, such as race, religion, or political affiliations, without your explicit consent.

New Labor Forum keeps track of the Web sites and pages our customers visit within New Labor Forum, in order to determine what New Labor Forum services are the most popular. This data is used to deliver customized content and advertising within New Labor Forum to customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.

New Labor Forum Web sites will disclose your personal information, without notice, only 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 New Labor Forum or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of New Labor Forum; and, (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of New Labor Forum, or the public.

Use of Cookies

The New Labor Forum Web site use "cookies" to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize New Labor Forum pages, or register with New Labor Forum site or services, a cookie helps New Labor Forum to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same New Labor Forum Web site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the New Labor Forum features that you customized.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the New Labor Forum services or Web sites you visit.

Security of your Personal Information

New Labor Forum secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. New Labor Forum secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other Web sites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.

Changes to this Statement

New Labor Forum will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect company and customer feedback. New Labor Forum encourages you to periodically review this Statement to be informed of how New Labor Forum is protecting your information.
