Information users provide through optional, voluntary submissions. These are voluntary submissions to receive electronic communications such as emails and podcasts, to participate in our online discussion forums, to email a friend, to participate in an online advocacy campaign, to make an online donation, and to purchase a good or service from our online store.
Aggregated tracking information. CFI analyzes visitor demographic and traffic statistics to improve our websites. Under no circumstances does CFI divulge such information about an individual user to a third party.
Personal Data
CFI stores all personal data voluntarily provided by Web site visitors. CFI does not share, sell, or provide this information to third parties.
Credit Card Transactions
Credit card payments online are processed through Blackbaud NetCommunity Spark & CyberSource. Credit card information provided during the ordering process can’t be accessed by CFI. CFI only sees that the transaction has been processed, the amount, the name of the payee, and the web page used to start the donation.
