This Privacy Policy applies to jwinitiative.com and all pages and content hosted therein (collectively referred to herein as “jwinitiative.com,” the “Site,” or the “Website”).
​
We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting personally identifiable information that is collected through the Website. We have adopted this Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”) to explain what information may be collected on the Website, how we use this information, and under what circumstances we may disclose the information to third parties. This Privacy Policy applies only to information we collect through the Website and does not apply to the collection of information from other sources.
This Privacy Policy sets forth the general rules and policies governing your use of the Website. Depending on your activities when visiting the Website, you may be required to agree to additional terms and conditions.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, the Initiative collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. The Initiative’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how visitors use its website. From time to time, the Initiative may internally release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate.
The Initiative also collects potentially personally-identifying information such as Internet Protocol (IP) addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.
​
Gathering Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to the Website choose to interact with the Initiative in ways that require us to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that the Initiative gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors filling out a contact form to provide a first name, last name, email address, and phone number, in addition to the message sent to the Initiative.
Security
The security of your Personal Information is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Links to External Sites
The Website may contain links to external sites that are not operated by the Initiative. If you click on a third party link, you will be directed to that third party’s site. We strongly advise you to review each third-party site’s Privacy Policy and any terms and conditions thereof, as applicable.
We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third party sites, products, or services.

The Initiative may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its website. The Initiative may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, the Initiative does not disclose your personally-identifying information.
