Protection of privacy is one of the most important issues for Internet users. Children's Cause for Cancer Advocacy has developed this statement about our information privacy practices to assist users of Children's Cause for Cancer Advocacy's website (www.childrenscause.org) in understanding how personal information collected from the website is used.

The Information We Collect
To enable you to receive communications from us, we request that you join our mailing list and tell us your e-mail address. We may collect personally identifiable information from you, including name, address and telephone number, in connection with any donations you choose to make to our organization. We also may collect certain non-personally identifiable information when you visit many of our web pages such as the type of browser you are using (e.g., Netscape, Internet Explorer), the type of operating system you are using, (e.g., Windows '98 or Mac OS) and the domain name of your Internet service provider (e.g., America Online, Earthlink).

How We Use the Information
We do not rent, sell, or exchange with third parties personally identifiable information you provide about yourself online without first obtaining your permission. We use the personally identifiable information you provide about yourself to respond to your requests for information about issues in pediatric cancer and about our organization. We sometimes use this personally identifiable information to communicate with you, such as to notify you of our fundraising efforts or to inform you of changes to our registered user agreements. We also may use such information, combined with information from outside records, to send you our newsletter or to communicate with you via postal mail.

This information also is used to generate demographic summaries of Children's Cause for Cancer Advocacy's user base. It is may disclosed in summary form only to third party development partners and industry supporters for the expressed purpose of evaluating overall system utilization and funding opportunities. These summaries never contain information that could identify an individual user.

We use the non-personally identifiable information that we collect to analyze site usage and to improve the design and content of our site.

Unless you explicitly authorize us to do so, we do not share personally identifiable information with third parties, other than in response to legal process or when we believe in good faith that the law requires it, for example, in response to a court order, subpoena or a law enforcement agency's request.
