Use of
Cookies
The CNE Direct Web site use "cookies" to help you personalize your
online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk
by a Web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver
viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only
be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to
save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you
have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize CNE Direct
pages, or register with CNE Direct site or services, a cookie helps CNE
Direct to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This
simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as
billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same
CNE Direct Web site, the information you previously provided can be
retrieved, so you can easily use the CNE Direct features that you customized.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers
automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting
to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may
not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the CNE Direct
services or Web sites you visit.
Security of
your Personal Information
CNE Direct secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or
disclosure. CNE Direct secures the personally identifiable information you provide
on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from
unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When personal information (such as a
credit card number) is transmitted to other Web sites, it is protected
through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL)
protocol.
Changes to
this Statement
CNE Direct will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect
company and customer feedback. CNE Direct encourages you to periodically
review this Statement to be informed of how CNE Direct is protecting your
