By using the Website, you agree to abide by the terms of this Policy. This Policy applies regardless of how you access our Website – whether by personal computers, mobile devices or otherwise.

The Information that we gather may include your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, birth date or other elements of personal information.

In addition, if you contact us, we may keep a record of your correspondence, including any Information contained therein.

It is up to you whether or not you want to provide us with Information. When we ask you to provide Information, you can decline and still visit the Website to learn more about us and what we do. However, if you choose not to provide Information to us, you may be unable to contribute to our charitable mission. We also use a third party to gather information on how you and others are using the Website. By using this service we are able (for example) to see how many people visited a given page or clicked on a given link. We use tracking pixels to serve ads through third party network services to people who have visited our Website (“Retargeting Ads”). The tracking pixel is a piece of JavaScript code for our website that enables us to measure, optimize, and build audiences for our marketing campaigns. The tracking pixels allow us to track actions users take after viewing our ads across multiple devices, including mobile phones, tablets and desktop computers and will continue to monitor the actions they take after clicking on our ad.
