SECURITY & PRIVACY STATEMENT
Effective October 12, 2001
I. General Information About Our Privacy Practices
eFundraising.com Corporation is strongly committed to protecting the privacy of
our users and maintaining a secure online environment for our online
fundraising programs. Our Privacy Statement covers our World Wide Web sites
found at:
http://www.efundraising.com
This Privacy Statement is effective as of the date written above and is
designed to meet the following principles and practices:
-
We fully disclose what information is collected on our sites and how we use
that information;
-
Campaign organizers, participants and supporters who participate in our online
campaign programs may choose whether they want to continue to receive
communications from us;
-
We provide our registered campaign organizers with access to their account
information and the ability to modify that information; and
-
We are dedicated to creating a secure environment for user information and use
an advanced network server security system to safeguard user information.
In the more detailed description of our privacy practices below, when we use
the term "you," we are referring to registered campaign organizers,
participants, supporters and general users of our web sites who order campaign
products or information from our web sites. When we use the term "personal
information," we are referring to a user's first and last name, address,
telephone number, and e-mail address. eFundraising.com does not collect social
security numbers.
Violating our privacy policy is cause for termination of your
campaign. In addition, eFundraising.com Corporation reserves the right to
cooperate with municipal, state and federal officials in any law-enforcement
investigation requiring either personal information or reports about lawful or
unlawful user activities on this site.
II. eFundraising.com Sections
Information Collected Through the Traditional Fundraising Programs
We offer traditional campaign program products through eFundraising.com. You may order
free samples of products online, or request that a consultant contact you to
take your campaign program order. You may also call our toll-free Order Desk to
order your free samples. If you choose to submit orders or requests online, you
will need to provide us with the necessary fulfillment information through our
online order or request form. All personal information you submit to us through
the eFundraising.com will only be used by us and our third-party suppliers and
transactional companies for the purpose of fulfilling your order or request.
eFundraising.com may contact you with informational updates and communications,
which you may always opt-out of as described below.
Information Collected Through eFundraising.com's Online Fundraising System
Registration Information
In order to use our services, and/or to receive a free information kit,
campaign organizers must complete an online registration form or call our
toll-free number at 1-800-561-8388. When registering online or by phone,
campaign organizers need to supply contact information, relevant
affiliation(s), and details related to their fundraising campaign. We collect
this information from fundraising campaign organizers to assess the organizer's
fundraising needs and to respond to them with information relevant to their
request.
III. Specific Information Pratices For All eFundraising.com Sites
Order Information
To purchase or order sample campaign products through any of
our sites, you will need to provide order information (which may include credit
card information). If you are purchasing campaign products from us, once your
credit card has been approved by our third-party transactional company for the
amount equaling the total of the supporter's desired purchases, the third-party
supplier(s) will receive all relevant purchase details (item description,
quantity, etc.) needed to fulfill the order. All personal information collected
during the ordering process is used solely for order processing, billing and
shipping.
Information Sharing
As detailed above, eFundraising.com Corporation
does not give your personal information to third parties not associated with
our campaign products or services. Our third-party suppliers use a variety of
external delivery companies to ship orders, and a third-party firm processes
the campaign supporters' credit cards for goods purchased. These companies, by
contractual agreement with us, are not permitted to retain, store or use
personally identifiable customer information except for order processing and
fulfillment.
