• The only information NAPAH obtains about individual visitors to its Web site is that supplied voluntarily by visitors.
• In cases when NAPAH may need personal information to provide visitors with customized content or to inform them about new features or services, visitors are explicitly asked for that information.
• Personally identifiable information provided by visitors (name, e-mail or home address, etc.) will not be disclosed to anyone unless visitors indicate that NAPAH may do so.
• Only statistical information about our visitors as a group (usage habits, demographics) may be shared with any partner of NAPAH. Personally identifiable information will not be shared at any time without the visitor's permission. NAPAH employs strict security measures to safeguard online transactions; personal information is stored in a secured database and always sent via an encrypted Internet channel.
• We will notify our users if we make significant changes to our privacy policy that may affect the use of health-related information, and we will obtain consent from consumers for any new uses of that data.

IP Addresses
An IP address is a number automatically assigned to your computer whenever you access the Internet. All computer identification on the Internet is conducted with IP addresses, which allow computers and servers to recognize and communicate with each other. NAPAH collects IP addresses in order to conduct system administration, report aggregate information to sponsors and advertisers, and to conduct site analysis. If a visitor requests pages from NAPAH, the NAPAH servers enter the visitor's IP address into a log. To maintain visitor anonymity, NAPAH does not associate IP addresses with records containing personal information. However, NAPAH will use IP addresses to identify any visitors who refuse to comply with NAPAH's in-house rules or terms of service, and to identify visitors who threaten our service, site, customers or others.
