Privacy Policy

Northwest Human Services (NWHS) has a firm commitment to privacy. This policy addresses the information-gathering and dissemination practices for this website.

Personal Information 

NWHS does not collect personal information (e.g., name, address or telephone number) unless you voluntarily provide it to us by phone, e-mail, participating in a survey or completing an online form. We do not share any personal information with any third parties.

When you visit our website, we may collect certain information, such as:

  • Domain, country, IP address
  • Browser, platform, resolution
  • Entrance-exit pages, referrals
  • Date, time
  • Search terms and engines

This is standard practice for organizations that host websites. This information is used to evaluate our programs and adapt them to best serve customer needs.

In order to provide better and more secure service may use a “cookie.” A cookie is a small piece of information stored on your computer that can uniquely identify your browser, and may include other information about your visit to the site. The cookie cannot be read by a website other than the one that set the cookie.

  • Messages you send us:  Comments or questions sent to us by email will be shared with NWHS staff who are most able to address your concerns. We will archive your messages once we have made our best effort to provide you with a complete and satisfactory response.
  • Social Media:  Our Websites include Social Media Features, such as the Facebook button. These Features may collect your IP address, which page you are visiting on our site, and may set a cookie to enable the Feature to function properly. Social Media Features are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on our Site. Your interactions with these Features are governed by the privacy statement of the company providing them.
  • Links to Third Party Websites:  Our website may include links to other websites whose privacy practices may differ from those of NWHS. If you submit personal information to any of those sites, your information is governed by their privacy statements. We encourage you to carefully read the privacy statement of any website you visit.

NWHS complies with all statutory and legal requirements with respect to access to information. NWHS uses Google Analytics, a website traffic tracking and reporting service, on many of our Web pages. This service helps us to better understand and improve our sites’ performance and user experience. We adhere to Google’s data processing methods for this service, which prohibit the collection or association of personal information with web analytics.
