You may choose whether to provide personal information to us. "Personal information" is information about a natural person that is readily identifiable to that specific individual. Personal information includes such things as an individual's name, address, email address, phone number, or payment information. A domain name or Internet protocol address is not considered personal information.

If you choose to provide us with personal information, as in an email to us, or by filling out a form with your personal information and submitting it to us through our website, we use that information to respond to your message and to help us provide the information you have requested. We only share the information you give us with another government agency if your inquiry relates to that agency, if subject to a valid NJ OPRA request, or as otherwise required by law. Moreover, we do not create individual profiles with the information you provide or supply it to any private organizations. NJLM does not collect information for commercial marketing purposes.
Privacy Warning
Email is not a secure medium, and information sent via the Internet can be intercepted. You may therefore wish to consider the advisability of sending messages that contain sensitive, personal information to this Internet address.
Although NJLM’s intent is not to divulge information collected or disclosed voluntarily, there are times when it may be required to do so pursuant to a request under State or Federal law or pursuant to court order, or a valid New Jersey public records request.

Section C. Cookies
To help make our website more responsive to the needs of our visitors, we use a standard feature of browser software, called a “cookie,” to assign each visitor a unique, random number that resides on your computer. A cookie is a small file placed on your device when you interact with the website. The cookie does not identify the visitor, only the computer that a visitor uses to access our site. Unless you voluntarily identify yourself, we won't know who you are, even if we assign a cookie to your computer as the only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply. A cookie cannot read unrelated data off your computer. We use cookies to help us deliver a better, more personalized service. For example, we use cookies to track the pages and services on our website visited by our users. We can build a better website if we know which pages and features our users are visiting and how often. You can decline to accept these cookies, or you can disable them, by activating the appropriate setting on your browser or device. Be aware that doing so may preclude you from accessing certain features of our website.
