Please note that this privacy policy governs only the data practices of CAF at our websites; we are not responsible for the privacy policies of other sites or companies that may be linked to or otherwise contacted through our websites. Please also note that nowhere on the websites do we knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. We ask that parents help ensure that children do not submit any personal information to us.

Our privacy policy may be revised over time as new features are added to the websites or as we incorporate suggestions from our users. Please review this privacy policy each time you visit. You can tell if the privacy policy has changed by checking the revision date that appears above. In the event CAF makes a material change to this privacy policy or changes how CAF treats your personal information, we will provide you with advance notice, such as by Listing a notice on the home page of our site or sending you an email, and you will be given the opportunity to opt out of such new or different use of your personal information.
How Your Information is Used
Newsletters
When you register with our site we will periodically email you newsletters, press releases or other information about us and our current projects. You can “unsubscribe” at any time by following the instructions at the bottom of each email communication.
Contacting You Regarding Fundraising Efforts
You agree, in consideration for the use of our sites, to allow CAF to periodically email you information on various fundraising efforts or projects. CAF may also send you marketing and promotional materials that promote third party sponsors or supporters of CAF’s projects. These materials may include additional information and promotional offers for goods and services from such third parties. CAF will not rent or sell your personal information for use by third parties. Like most websites, CAF uses small text files called “cookies” to facilitate access to our websites. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer, but are unique identifiers placed on your computer that can only be used by an internet server in the domain that issued the cookie to you. The primary purpose of our use of cookies is to save you time by telling our server that you have returned to a specific web page, and to remind our server of information that you may have entered on that web page previously. However, you have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer.

Cooking cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer, but are unique identifiers placed on your computer that can only be used by an internet server in the domain that issued the cookie to you. The primary purpose of our use of cookies is to save you time by telling our server that you have returned to a specific web page, and to remind our server of information that you may have entered on that web page previously.
You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies.

Third Party Websites
For your convenience and information, CAF may post links to third party websites on our site. These other websites may have privacy policies that differ from CAF’s. CAF is not responsible for the content or practices of any linked site. We recommend that you review the privacy policy of any site that you access through our site.
Disclosure to Governmental Entities
CAF may disclose specific contact information when we determine that such disclosure is necessary to comply with law, to cooperate with or seek assistance from law enforcement or to protect the interests or safety of CAF or other visitors to the site. Also, your contact information may be passed on to a third party in the event of a merger, acquisition, consolidation, or dissolution of CAF.
Internet Security
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information and make commercially reasonable efforts to do so, CAF cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. However, once we receive your transmission, we make our best reasonable effort to ensure its security on our systems. CAF does not collect personal information such as credit card data. When you make a donation from our website you are redirected to a third party service provider’s website that processes electronic donations for CAF. You may view Classy’s privacy policy, Donation Pay’s privacy policy, Stripe’s terms of service or GlobalGiving’s privacy policy when you are redirected to their sites to make your donation. We recommend that you review the privacy policies of each website that you visit.
