Privacy Policy

We have developed our Site so that you can visit it without identifying yourself or revealing any personal information. We do not use “cookies.” Visitors to our Site are not tracked.

We collect personally identifying data about you, such as your name, address and e-mail address, only when you provide it to us voluntarily when you request additional information. We do not share your personal data with any third parties other than service providers who use the information only to help us respond to your requests. The Foundation does not sell information about visitors to its website. The Foundation may disclose any information if required to do so by law or in the belief that such action is reasonably necessary (a) to conform to the requirements of the law; (b) to protect and defend the legal rights or property of the Foundation, the website or its users or (c) in an emergency, to protect the safety of its users and/or the public. The Foundation does not knowingly collect information from minors. If a minor will be using this website, it is the legal guardian’s responsibility to instruct such minor not to submit any personal information by way of e-mail or otherwise.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Foundation will take reasonable measures to protect any information acquired by the Foundation from users by storing it in a secure operating area that is not available to the public. The Foundation does not, however, use encryption to protect data that you submit to the website. Accordingly, visitors should exercise caution when deciding to disclose critical information to the Foundation via e-mail or otherwise through the website.
