Introduction
NPSNJ (“we,” “our,” or “us”) operates the website npsnj.org. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website or use our services.
Information We Collect
Information you provide to us:
- Name, address, and email address when you sign up for a membership
- Name and email address if you sign in using Google authentication
- Any information you voluntarily submit through our website
Information automatically collected:
- Browser type and version
- Device information

When you log in, we set cookies to save your login information and screen display choices.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide and maintain our services
- Authenticate your identity when you sign in
- Communicate with you about our services
- Improve our website and user experience
- Comply with legal obligations
Password Security
If you create an account with a password, your password is securely encrypted before it is stored. We do not have the ability to view, read, or retrieve your password. If you forget your password, you must reset it—we cannot recover it for you, although we can reset it.
Email Privacy
We never share your email address with anyone. Your email address is used solely for NPSNJ communications and will not be sold, rented, or disclosed to third parties.
Our Email Practices:
For all email communications, it is NPSNJ policy to use Constant Contact rather than CC (carbon copy) on email lists. This protects your email address from being visible to other recipients.
The only exception to this policy is for small groups of under 40 people participating in classes or small chapter activities, where e-mail may be used for logistical convenience.
Google OAuth
We use Google OAuth for authentication. When you sign in with Google, we receive your basic profile information (name and email address) from Google. We do not have access to your Google password. Please review Google’s Privacy Policy for information on how Google handles your data.
How Long We Retain Your Data
For registered users, we store the personal information provided in user profiles. All users can see, edit, or delete their own, and only their own, personal information at any time (except usernames).
Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.
Your Rights
You may:
- Request access to your personal data
- Request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you
- Request correction of your personal data
- Request deletion of your personal data (except data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes)
- Withdraw consent at any time
