What else should I know about my privacy?
Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information online - for example on message boards or through e-mail - that information can be collected and used by others.

In addition, Foundation partners and third-party services have separate, independent privacy and data collection practices. The Foundation has no responsibility or liability for these independent policies or actions. You are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your personal information. Please be careful and responsible whenever you are online.
