NSC recognizes that ensuring the privacy of our clients and donors online is essential. Please read the following policy to understand how your personal information will be treated as you make full use of our website’s on-line payment and donation process.

We have given a great deal of attention to the ease and security of the on-line registration, membership renewal and donation experience. We are concerned with keeping the information you submit to us secure and are committed to protecting your privacy and identity online.

Our site uses forms in which you give us information (your name, address, daytime telephone number, and email address) that personally identifies you or allows us to contact you when, among other things, you register for workshops, renew or apply for membership, apply for a scholarship, or make a donation. The information you submit is encrypted using secure SSL connections while being transmitted across the Internet to prohibit viewing by a third party. Contact Information is stored by NSC in secure operating environments that are not available to the general public.

NSC does not receive or store any credit card information entered in our payment forms. If you choose to pay us online using your credit card, your credit card credit card number and expiration date is transmitted to VeriSign's high-security, risk-free data center. All transactions between you and VeriSign also occur over secure SSL connections. This ensures optimal security of all credit card information.

What information does NSC collect?

When you make a payment through the NSC website, we ask for your full name, e-mail address, mailing and billing addresses, credit card number, and expiration date. This information allows us to process and fulfill your request and to confirm your status and registration, payment or donation via e-mail or phone. NSC may use your personal contact information, on occasion, to notify you of changes to scheduled events, errors in processing your payment or other relevant information. We ask you to provide a billing address when it differs from the mailing address to ensure the credit card transmitted is actually yours and so that the transaction can be approved immediately.

Will NSC disclose the information it collects to outside parties?

NSC does not share personal information, sell, trade, or rent data to others. NSC may provide aggregate statistics about our customers, purchases, traffic patterns and related site information to our Board or consultants for internal evaluation, but these statistics will include no personally identifiable information. NSC may release account information when we believe, in good faith, that such release is reasonably necessary to (a) comply with the law, (b) enforce or apply the terms of any of our user agreements, or (c) protect the rights, property, or safety of NSC, our users, or others.

Your consent

By using the NSC website you consent to the collection and use of this information by NSC as outlined in this Privacy Policy. In the future, this privacy policy may be revised.
