PRIVACY POLICY
This Privacy Policy discloses the online privacy practices for the Legacy Foundation of Tompkins County ("Legacy Foundation") and applies to the information collected through this site. By accessing and/or using the Site, you are consenting to the collection, storage, and disclosure of data as described in this Privacy Policy.

Your IP Address: An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer every time you browse the Internet. When a user requests a page from the Site, our servers log the user's current IP address. We use IP addresses to help diagnose problems with our servers and to administer the Site.
Cookies: The Site is developed using Active Server Pages (ASP), and we use per-session "cookies" (pieces of data your browser stores in your computer's memory at the Legacy Foundation's request) to establish user sessions on our server. We use this information to carry information about usage from page to page through the Site.
Most browsers are set up to accept cookies, but you can usually change your browser settings to refuse them. The Legacy Foundation does not use cookies to retrieve personal information about you from your computer. If you disable cookies, your browser may experience some erratic behavior on some portions of the Site.

The Legacy Foundation does not sell or rent your Application Information to third parties.
