We apologize for having to plaster this legal boilerplate across the bottom of every one of our pages, but you really should read it through at least once since it concerns your legal rights if you are considering donating to us or citing our work.
You see, we try very hard to comply with all applicable legal regulations and at present the law is unsettled with respect to charities raising funds online. There is one school of thought that argues "if a site has a 'Donate Now' button on all of its web pages, each individual web page is a charitable solicitation in its own right, requiring the prominent display of registration notices whose language is mandated by state law." Since this argument might turn out to have the force of law, we are going to play it safe and include the language for all of the states in which we are registered until such time as the states agree upon a more user friendly alternative form of notification, like a simple link to a single page of legalese.
Since we have to go this far, we are also including some useful and related information (about our Copyrights & Trademarks, our Tax Status, and Web Accessibility) that isn't required by law, just to keep everything law related in one place. In any case, this footer is the same on every page so you don't need to scroll down to it again.
Your gift is very much appreciated and fully deductible as a charitable contribution. A copy of our latest financial report may be obtained from our Online Archives, or by writing to The Institute for End User Computing, Inc., P.O. Box 1717, Ossining, NY 10562, or by sending email to: info@ieuc.org

Other States: We have been explicitly exempted from registering with NORTH CAROLINA because our annual revenue did not reach their threshold for registeration. Other states either do not require any registration at all, have similar registration thresholds, or are jurisdictions into which the IEUC is not directing any solicitations. Naturally, we will register in these jurisdictions before making any direct solicitation of support from their residents or upon our receipt of a level of unsolicited support from their residents that rises to a threshold requiring such registration.
Registration with any of these state agencies does not imply endorsement, approval or recommendation by any state.
The Institute for End User Computing, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) exempt organization that was classified as a Public Charity at the end of its advanced ruling period.

Note that our pages look best on a monitor with a display supporting at least 1024 by 768 pixels and more than 256 colors. We go to great lengths to insure that our pages are fully compliant with the latest standards provided by the World Wide Web Consortium, but we have no control over the many bugs that still exist in various browsers.

Section 508 is a regulatory framework aimed at mandating how web site authors should address accessibility concerns in the production of web sites funded directly or indirectly by the US Government.
No direct or indirect federal, state, or local government funds were used in support of the development of this page, nor was its development undertaken as a project for any such entity.
Therefore, this page is not subject to Section 508 or any related rule making.
We make extensive use of Javascript to enhance our pages for the majority of our visitors who don't have any disabilities that would limit their motor control of a mouse or detract from their appreciation of a tight dynamically responsive animated display that selectively hides and reveals page elements to reduce the need for mouse click driven inter-page navigation.
These enhancements are applied in an unobtrusive manner that leaves our pages fully accessible if Javascript is turned off.
However, some Assistive Technologies provide some level of native Javascript support that doesn't interact well with modern Javascript usage, so as to hide page elements without providing any accessible means of revealing them. As web authors, there is no way for us to account for all possible bugs, variations, and permutations in the implementation of web standards under the full range of browsers, screen readers, input devices that our visitors might be using.
To address these concerns, we have added Assistive Technology and Print Preview Modes that can be used individually or in combination to disable dynamic intra-page navigation effects, simultaneously reveal all page elements, and swap in a black-and-white style sheet.
We feel that given today's technology, this is a best available way to balance the needs of our all of our visitors.
While we go to great pains to adhere to Web Standards, the sad truth is that they are exceedingly complicated interlocking specifications that are, in places, ambiguous — making it virtually impossible to create a flawless implementation of them and truly impossible to create style sheets based upon them that will work for every user of every browser. If you care about reading our pages and find that your current browser is mutilating them, you should try a different browser.
