Your Privacy and This Website

Information collected through www.ilep.org (the “Website”) includes information collected automatically and information you submit.

Information you submit through this Website via electronic mail (email) or an attachment to an email is used only by the Institute for Law and Economic Policy (“ILEP”)  and ILEP’s employees, agents, contractors, and those acting on behalf of ILEP to fulfill delivery of a requested service or information.

How We Handle Your Information

We do not automatically collect or store personal information for any purpose. Our Web servers do, however, collect non-personal information automatically to record the IP addresses of visitors, the date and time of access, the pages visited, whether or not the pages were successfully retrieved from our server, and various other status codes and values. This is done so we can better understand how this online environment is being used and accessed.

We do not give, sell, or transfer personal information to third parties other than those directly involved in providing a service or fulfilling a request on behalf of ILEP, unless we are required to do so by law.

Embedded Content/Links to Other Sites

Articles on this Website may include embedded content (such as videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

This Website also may contain links to third party websites or embedded content from other sites. These links are provided solely as a convenience for you. We are not responsible for the content or functionality of linked third-party sites and do not make any representation regarding the content, functionality, or accuracy of materials on such third-party websites or the data they may collect about you. If you decide to access a linked third-party website, you do so at your own risk.

Sending Us Information

When you send ILEP information through an electronic mail (email) message or attachment containing a question or comment or other information, or post a comment to a blog or article, you do so at your own risk.

Please do NOT send or post credit card numbers, social security numbers, bank account numbers, birth dates, health care, or other such personally-identifying information via email, email attachment, blog/article posting, or blog/article comment.
