Consistent with the Federal Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA),
The Legacy Foundation will not knowingly collect any online information from a user under
13 without prior verifiable parental consent. When we do not obtain prior verifiable parental consent,
online contact information will be used only to directly respond to the child's request
and will not be used to contact the child for other purposes.
The Legacy Foundation collects information from our users through both our public Web Site and the password
protected part of our Web Site (the "Web Sites"). The public Web Site provides information about The Legacy Foundation
and allows users to contact us online. The password protected part of our Web Site provides our contractors who enter
the site using a unique username and password with the opportunity to record their sponsor lists and to maintain their
personal record keeping that is in accordance with the mission of The Legacy Foundation and to
share their information with other employees of The Legacy Foundation that are in a 'need to know' position.
The information collected on the Web Sites falls into two categories:
(1) information voluntarily submitted, and (2) information gathered via electronic means.
|
Information Voluntarily Submitted
|
You can visit The Legacy Foundation's Web site without telling
us who you are or revealing any personal
information about yourself. The Legacy Foundation gathers "personally identifiable information" if you voluntarily
submit inquiries to us through our feedback form or in the case of our contractors, request access to the
password protected part of our Web Site.
The types of personally identifiable information
voluntarily submitted on our Web Sites may include
your name, company, address, city, state, zip, phone, fax, and email addresses. You can always choose
not to provide personally identifiable information, but if you do not provide such information, you may not
be able to complete the applicable transaction.

Information Gathered via Electronic Means
|
We track visiting domains, internet addresses of the domains from which people visit us to track
a user's session and the user's browser also lets us know the type of computer and operating system being used.
This allows us to analyze the information as to which parts of our site users spend their time and their length
of stay but does not give us any personal information about the user.
Specifically, a user's session will be tracked, but the user will be anonymous.
In some parts of the Web Sites we use cookies, which are bits of information that are stored on your computer
when you visit a Web Site. Cookies allow the Web Site to recognize you and, among other things, load your page more quickly.
You can remove cookies from your computer if you want; your browser's help feature can tell you how.
If you do so, please note that some parts of the Web Sites, may not function properly.
The Legacy Foundation is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information
to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement.
In addition, you should be aware that some administrative
personnel of The Legacy Foundation may in the course of their regular duties, have access to communications for technical
or operational purposes. The Legacy Foundation may also disclose any communications to the full extent permitted or required by law.

and as such is not responsible or liable for any privacy practices, content, advertising, products, or other materials

This website takes every precaution to protect our user information as well as the information
entered into our databases by our contractors. When sensitive information is either submitted to us
or entered into our databases via the website, it is protected both online and off-line.
We have established electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard our Website and to protect
against the loss, disclosure, misuse or unauthorized access of personal information both online and offline.
Only those employees of the The Legacy Foundation and/or our business partners who need
the information to perform a specific job are granted access to personally identifiable information.
