How We Protect Your Information

Sharing Your Personal Information
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal identification information to others.
We may use third party service providers to help us operate the Site or administer activities on our behalf, such as mailing out newsletters or emailing blog posts. We may share your information with these third parties for those limited purposes.
Third Party Websites
Users may find content on our Site that links to the sites and services of other third parties. We do not control the content or links that appear on these sites and are not responsible for the practices employed by websites linked to or from our Site. In addition, these sites or services, including their content and links, may be constantly changing. These sites and services may have their own privacy policies and customer service policies. Browsing and interaction on any other website, including websites which have a link to our Site, is subject to that website’s own terms and policies.
The Website currently uses the following third-party service providers:
FeedBlitz:
This service, which Users can sign up for on our website, emails our blog posts to you. But you need to subscribe to the service.
Google Analytics:
This service tracks Website usage and provides information such as referring websites and user actions on the Website. Google Analytics may capture your IP address, but no other personal information is captured by Google Analytics.
Network for Good:
This is the nonprofit organization we use to process online donations on the Website for us. We do not see, and do not have access to, your credit card information. Only Network for Good has that data. We receive an email notification from Network for Good about your donation that includes your name, email address, physical mailing address, and the amount of the gift, but no other financial information. Network for Good manages and protects that data. It is also possible to make an online donation anonymously, which means we will never know who you are and only Network for Good has that information.
Salesforce:
We use Salesforce as the database for our donors information, which includes name, address, and donation history (gift amounts and dates). Data is entered manually by us in the case of donations made by checks, and automatically by Network for Good in the case of online donations. (Network for Good’s system syncs with Salesforce.) But again, no credit card or bank account information is contained in the database. The Salesforce database is used primarily as the source of our mailing list for print newsletter.
Publicly Visible Information
If you create/leave a comment on the Website, certain information may be publicly visible. To leave a comment, you must enter your username and your email address. Your email address will never be available publicly. At your option, you may also add a link to your website. Users may see your username and website information. We only use this information if there is a need to contact you regarding your comment.
Advertising
We do not accept advertising on our Website.
Personal Information
Our server and WordPress may also automatically collect information about your computer when you visit the Website, including without limitation the type of browser software you use, the operating system you are running, the Website that referred you, and your Internet Protocol (IP) address.
