Normal Website Usage
You may visit the Website to access information
about NIS products and services, without telling us who you are or
revealing any personal information. The only data we collect and store
during normal website usage is typical web server log data. Examples of
this type of data are: the name of your Internet Service Provider, the
site that referred you to us, any pages you request, and the time and
date of those requests, etc.
We use this information to generate statistics and
measure site activity to benefit Website users. This same information
may be shared with third parties in order to provide these services or
to analyze, store, or aggregate the information. It may also be shared
with other third parties working with us to improve the services of NIS
or the Website.
Collection of Personally Identifiable
Information
There may be instances where NIS may request
personally identifiable information to provide Website visitors with a
service. This information, such as name, mailing address, email address,
and type of request, is collected and stored in a manner appropriate to
the nature of the request, as determined by NIS, to fulfill your needs.
To reiterate, all information you provide is used to improve the
products and services offered by NIS. This information may also be
provided to our producers for use on behalf of NIS in accordance with
our privacy statement. However, it is never provided or sold to any
other company for that company's independent use.

information collection or privacy practices of any other party are not
monitored or controlled by NIS and NIS is not responsible for such
websites. Links on the Website to other websites are provided only as a

of the linked site. You should review the privacy policies of any other

Notwithstanding the information policies stated
above, the right to store and disclose to third parties any information
under the following circumstances is reserved: when the law permits it
(such as, for example, to comply with laws or to respond to governmental
authorities); to legal advisors; and to protect the rights, property,
safety or security of NIS, Website visitors or the public.
This Privacy Statement applies solely to online
information collection and use practices in connection with this
Website.
Information Security
NIS recognizes the importance of safeguarding
consumer personal information in NIS possession from theft,
inappropriate use, or improper distribution. It should, however, be
recognized that no company can perfectly protect personal information.
NIS reserves the right to make changes to this
Privacy Statement from time to time, which may be provided to you by any
reasonable means including, but not limited to, posting the revised
