This privacy policy deals with personally identifiable information (referred to as “data” below) that may be collected by this site. This policy does not apply to other entities that are not owned or controlled by the site owner, nor does it apply to persons who are not employees or agents of the site owner, or who are not under the site owner’s control. Please take time to read this site’s Terms of Use, available upon request to the site administrator.

Registration for an account on this site, including actions such as registering for an event or making a charitable donation, requires a valid e-mail address. Please be aware that the user name you choose, the e-mail address you provide, and any other information you enter, may render you personally identifiable and may possibly be displayed on this web site. This could occur either intentionally, depending on choices you make during the registration process, or depending on the way in which the site is configured, or unintentionally, for example subsequent to a successful act of intrusion by a third party. As on many web sites, the site owner may also automatically receive general information that is contained in server log files, such as your IP address and cookie information.

Security Of Data: The security of your data is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
