You consent to our cookies if you continue to use our website.
Cookies are small text files that can be used by websites to make a user's experience more efficient.
There are some cookies that we have to include in order for certain webpages to function. For this reason, they do not require your consent. In particular, we use
- Authentication cookies

Our site uses different types of cookies. Some cookies are placed by third party services that appear on our pages.
How do we use cookies?
NFW’s website mostly uses “first-party cookies.” These are cookies set and controlled by NFW, not by any external organization.
However, to view some of our pages, you will have to accept cookies from external organizations.
The 3 types of first-party cookies we use:
- Store visitor preferences
These are set by us and only we can read them. They remember:
- if you have agreed to (or refused) this site’s cookie policy.
- if you have already replied to our survey pop-up (about how helpful the site content was) – so you will not be asked again.
- Make our websites operational
- Gather analytics data (about user behavior)
- Analytics cookies
- We use these purely for internal research on how we can improve the service we provide for all our users.
- The cookies simply assess how you interact with our website – as an anonymous user (the data gathered does not identify you personally).
- Also, this data is not shared with any third parties or used for any other purpose. The anonymized statistics could be shared with contractors working on communication projects under contractual agreement with NFW.
