Policy on Linking to Websites
From time to time, NEDIC links to other third-party websites that we feel provide relevant information, resources or services to our visitors. When considering a website as a resource we ask the following questions:
- Is the content accurate and trustworthy?
- Does the content benefit consumers or clients?
- Is the author reliable and legitimate?
- Is the site consistent with the values and mission of NEDIC?
- How up to date is the information?
- Do the format and design make the site easy to use?
NEDIC, however, is not responsible for the content of any sites we link to, nor do we explicitly endorse those sites. Our goal with providing third-party links is to provide visitors with access to additional information and resources. Please carefully consider the content of all websites you visit.
