Information We Collect
Visitors who interact with our Sites have a number of methods for voluntarily submitting information to us, including through online contact, information requests, blog subscription, job application, and donation forms. These forms require the user to include personally identifiable information, such as an email address, name, address, phone number, resume, or other information.
When you visit our Sites, we may collect information on website usage, including pages visited, the order in which they were visited, which hyperlinks were “clicked,” number of visits, browser type, operating system, and your computer’s IP address.
We use “Cookies” to facilitate use of the website. Cookies are small files transferred automatically to your computer through your browser that may contain information about your preferences and current session.

You may disable the use of cookies and still access the information provided on our Sites.
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc., on our Sites. Google Analytics uses cookies or other tracking technologies to help us analyze how users interact with and use the Sites, compile reports on the Site’s activity, and provide other services related to Sites activity and usage.
