Introduction

CT NOFA takes rights to privacy seriously, and finds it important that you feel comfortable using this web site. This privacy policy deals with personally-identifiable information (referred to as “data” below) that may be collected by this site. This policy does not apply to other entities that are not owned or controlled by CT NOFA, nor does it apply to persons that are not employees or agents of CT NOFA, or that are not under CT NOFA’s control. We encourage you to read this site’s Terms of use.

As on many web sites, CT NOFA may also automatically receive general information that is contained in server log files, such as your IP address, and cookie information. Information about how advertising may be served on this site (if it is indeed CT NOFA’s policy to display advertising) is set forth below.
