We recognize the
importance of respecting your information and maintaining confidentiality. SEI
Web Properties collects and uses your personal information to deliver the
services you have requested. Uses may include making the sites easier to use by
eliminating the need for you to repeatedly enter the same information;
performing research and analysis aimed at improving our services; and
displaying content customized to your interests and preferences. We know you
may be concerned about what we do with the information you provide us. You have
our assurance that we are committed to safeguarding your data and maintaining
your privacy online and we do not sell your information to third parties,
unless we have your prior written consent or are required by law to provide
such information.
We may collect
information during your visit, including the pages you view, the links you
click and other actions taken in connection with SEI Web Properties. We also
collect certain standard information that your Web browser sends to every Web
site you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, access times and

address, name, address and telephone number. We may
also collect demographic information, such as your zip code, preferences and
interests. If applicable, we have ensured that third parties with whom we

confidentiality of your data. Such service providers will only have access to
your data as is necessary and are prohibited from any unlawful use of your
data.
We periodically also
forward to your attention educational information, as well as material
pertaining to our products and services that might be of interest to you. When
you receive newsletters or promotional e-mail from SEI Web Properties, we may
use Web beacons, customized links, or similar technologies to determine whether

you more focused e-mail communications or other information in the future. You
can stop the delivery of future promotional e-mail from SEI by following the
specific instructions set forth in any promotional e-mail you receive from SEI.
