NationalEDC also logs non-personally-identifiable information including IP address, profile information, aggregate user data, and browser type, from users and visitors to the site.

Security

NationalEDC member accounts are secured by member-created passwords. NationalEDC takes precautions to insure that member account information is kept private. We use reasonable measures to protect member information that is stored within our database, and we restrict access to member information to those employees who need access to perform their job functions, such as our customer service personnel and technical staff. Please note that we cannot guarantee the security of member account information. Unauthorized entry or use, hardware or software failure, and other factors may compromise the security of member information at any time.
