The only information we collect from a normal website visit is the name of your internet service provider, the browser and type of machine you are using, the website that referred you to us, the pages you request and the date and time you request them. We use this information to generate statistics and measure site activity to improve the usefulness of the site to our visitors.
Collection of personally identifiable informationNorthwest College Foundation may collect email addresses, mailing addresses and credit card information when such data is voluntarily submitted to www.northwestcollege.edu/foundation. For example, our site includes a form for updating contact/address information and a form for receiving gifts via credit card transaction.
