DONOR PRIVACY POLICY
I. General
At the Northern Berkshire United Way, your privacy is important. We provide you this Donor Privacy Policy explaining how we treat donor information provided to us either online or offline. This Donor Privacy Policy sets out the basis on which any personal data that we collect from you, or that you provide to us as a donor, will be processed by us.
​
This notice may be changed or updated from time to time by posting such amended or updated notice on this website. If we materially alter this Policy, we will notify you of such changes by posting a notice on our website. A subsequent donation by you will be deemed your agreement that your information may be used in accordance with the new policy. If you do not agree with the changes, then you should not make a donation with us and you should notify us that you do not want your information used in accordance with the changes.
​
We believe that you should have control over who receives the personal information you provide to us as a donor (such as your name, address, zip/postal code, e-mail address, telephone number). Therefore, we do not trade or sell your personal information with third parties. In addition, we do not share your personal information to third parties unless they are carrying out business activities, operations or functions on our behalf, and only if they comply fully with our donor privacy policy. Further, we do not send donor mailings on behalf of other organizations.
​
