NEW JERSEY ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
Privacy Notice
Thank you for visiting the NJEDA website and reviewing our Privacy Notice. This statement addresses the collection, use, and security of, and access to, information that may be obtained through the use of the NJEDA website.
Section A: Information Collected and How It Is Used
Information Collected and Stored Automatically
If you do nothing during your visit but browse through the website, read pages, or download information, we will gather and store certain information about your visit automatically. This information does not identify you personally. We automatically collect and store only the following information:
- The type of browser and operating system used to access our site.
- The Internet domain and IP address from which you access our website.
- The date and time you access our site.
- The pages you visit.
- If you linked to the NJEDA website from another website, the address of that website.
We use this information to help us make our site more useful to visitors — to learn about the number of visitors to our site and the types of technology our visitors use. We do not track or record information about individuals and their visits.
If You Send Us Personal Information
If you choose to provide us with personal information — such as in an email to our Business Service Center — we use that information to respond to your message and to help us get you the information you have requested. We may share the information you give us with another State of New Jersey government agency, department, office, or entity, or as otherwise required by law. We do not create individual profiles with the information you provide or give it to any private organizations. The NJEDA does not collect information for commercial marketing.
Section B: Personal Information and Choice
You may choose whether to provide personal information online. “Personal information” is information about a natural person that is readily identifiable to that specific individual, including name, address, and phone number. A domain name or Internet protocol address is not considered personal information.
We collect no personal information about you unless you voluntarily provide it by sending us email, participating in a survey, or completing an online form. Your choice not to participate in these activities will not impair your ability to browse the NJEDA website or download any information provided on the site.
Privacy Warning
Email is not a secure medium. Personal information sent via the Internet can be intercepted. You may wish to reconsider the advisability of sending messages that contain sensitive personal information to this address.
The NJEDA does not plan on divulging information collected or voluntarily disclosed, but may be required to do so pursuant to a request under state right-to-know laws such as the New Jersey Open Public Records Act (OPRA), any common law right-to-know laws, other state or federal laws, or pursuant to court order.
Section C: Public Access to Information
In the State of New Jersey, laws exist to ensure that government is open and that the public has a right to access appropriate records and information possessed by state government. At the same time, there are exceptions to the public’s right to access public records that serve various needs, including the privacy of individuals. Exceptions are provided by both state and federal law.
All information collected at this site becomes a public record that may be subject to inspection and copying by members of the public, unless an exemption in law exists.
Section D: Security
The NJEDA has taken several steps to safeguard the integrity of its data and prevent unauthorized access to information maintained by this office. These measures are designed to prevent corruption of data, block unknown or unauthorized access to our systems and information, and provide reasonable protection of private information in our possession.
Section E: Disclaimer
The NJEDA website and materials may contain hypertext links to other Internet sites that are not owned, operated, controlled, or reviewed by the State. These links are provided solely as a courtesy and convenience to you, the visitor. When you link to one of these sites, you are no longer on the NJEDA website and this Privacy Notice will not apply.
The NJEDA, its agencies, officers, or employees exercise no control over the organizations, views, accuracy, copyright or trademark compliance, or the legality of the material contained on those servers, and do not sponsor, endorse, or approve the information, content, products, materials, opinions, or services contained on such external sites. The visitor proceeds to these external sites at their own risk.
