Use of Cookies

Cookies are pieces of information that are stored on your computer and are used for record keeping purposes and to help you personalize your online experience. 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 Manomet Initiatives pages, or register with the Manomet site, a cookie helps Manomet 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 Manomet web site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Manomet site features that you customized. Manomet also uses cookies to gather statistics and measure site activity to improve the usefulness of the site for our visitors.

If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Manomet site or websites you visit.

We take precautions to protect your information.  When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and offline.

Wherever we collect sensitive information (such as credit card data), that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way.  You can verify this by looking for a closed lock icon at the bottom of your web browser, or looking for "https" at the beginning of the address of the web page.

While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline.
