The ND Websites include social media features, similar to the Facebook “like” button and widgets, such as the “share this” button or interactive mini programs that run on the ND Websites. These features may collect your IP address, which page you are visiting on the ND Website, and may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. Social media features and widgets are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on the ND Websites. Your interactions with these features are governed by the privacy policy of the companies providing them.

NetDocuments is not responsible for the privacy practices of other companies or websites.
It is important for you to know ways that NetDocuments does NOT use or share personal information. Specifically:
