When we do collect personally identifiable information, it is always voluntarily submitted by you (e.g., when you fill out the website registration page or send back a direct mail reply device.) The information collected is used to send our users email alerts, reminders and other information we think will be of interest, and is encrypted with SSL.

We also monitor and track information such as member usage patterns of our website and direct mail response patterns through Google Analytics Demographic & Interests features. We compile this information into a statistical aggregate which we use, together with your personal information, for internal business and administrative purposes including improving our website, our operations and customer service. The statistics contain no personal information and cannot be used to gather such information. You may opt-out of our Google Analytics tracking here.
Protecting your privacy
From time to time we make our membership list available to other like-minded non-profit organizations and also buy/trade lists from such organizations. As part of our commitment to ensuring the privacy of our users, members may “opt out” of having their names sold or exchanged by sending an email to the email listed above. In order to assist with our outreach, we do share limited personally identifiable information with our direct mail house and online data manager who maintains email lists and hard-copy mailing lists on our behalf.
