Tracking Technologies
In addition to the personal information that you provide, we and our vendors may use various tools like cookies, pixels, and other tracking technologies to collect certain information automatically about you when you visit the Website or interact with content elsewhere online.

We may use tracking technologies to provide functionality to the Website, understand Website performance and how visitors use the Website, improve features and content on the Website, enable security features, and to detect activity that might violate our rules and terms, including unauthorized access.
Your web browser may have settings that allow you to transmit a “Do Not Track” signal when you visit various websites or use other online services. Like many websites, our Website is not designed to respond to “Do Not Track” signals received from browsers. To learn more about “Do Not Track” signals, visit allaboutdnt.com. You can set your browser to refuse cookies from websites, but if you do so, you may not be able to access or use portions of the Website, or certain features on the Website may not function as intended or as well.
Please note that we or other parties may collect information about your online activities over time and across different devices and websites and combine such information with other information we or other parties obtain about you, including data obtained from external parties.
Links to Other Websites
This Website may include hyperlinks for reference and convenience. These may include links to certain sites that are owned by Nemours but have their own privacy policies, as well as links to websites and online services that Nemours does not own or maintain. This Privacy Policy applies only to this Website. You should review the terms, policies, and settings of any other website or online platform you visit to learn more about their data practices.
Social Features
The Website may permit you to interact with social media platforms operated by unaffiliated parties (“Social Features”); for example, you may choose to “like” Nemours Estate or to share content between our Website and external platforms.

Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the personal information we obtain from loss, theft, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Nevertheless, transmission via the internet and online digital storage are not completely secure, so we cannot guarantee the security of your information collected through our Website.
