SUMETAS (collectively “SUMETAS”, “we,” “our,” or “us”) respects and is committed to protecting the privacy of all SUMETAS donors (on or offline) and all users of our websites (sumetas.com).

INFORMATION COLLECTION, USE, AND SHARING
Generally, you can visit SUMETAS ’s websites without revealing any personal information about yourself. Our web servers collect information such as domain names, IP addresses, and browser information, but not individual email addresses through aggregate tracking. This information is used to compile data such as the number of visits our site receives, the average time spent on the site, the pages viewed, etc. Aggregate information does not identify any individual person. We collect this anonymous data to measure the use of our site and to help us improve the site.
SUMETAS ’s website uses “cookies” and similar means to collect aggregate statistical information. A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and are designed to be read only by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you. Cookies are also used to recognize visitor preferences, temporarily store session information and past activity at our site in order to provide better service, an improved user experience, and easier access when individuals return to our site. Verified third parties may use cookies, web beacons, and other storage technologies to collect or receive information from SUMETAS ’s website and elsewhere on the internet and use that information to provide measurement services and target ads. You may set your browser to: (1) inform you when cookies are being set before a cookie is stored; (2) not accept cookies at all; and (3) erase all cookies from your hard drive. However, if you choose to reject or erase cookies, your ability to navigate our site may be limited. You can learn more about and opt-out of the collection and use of information for ad targeting at http://www.aboutads.info/choices.
There are some instances in which you may choose to provide personal information to SUMETAS . This may include subscribing to our e-newsletter, making a donation, purchasing tickets to events, and/or registering for a volunteer shift online. In these instances, SUMETAS uses encryption software to keep your personal information, including credit card numbers, secure. The information provided over our secure data lines is used to process your request.
Online donors, ticket purchasers, and volunteers will be added to SUMETAS constituent database and email distribution lists and may occasionally be contacted by mail. SUMETAS may use collected personal information in data sets to create targeted online promotional campaigns about SUMETAS programs and events. SUMETAS publishes a list of donors in our annual report, which is released each spring.
SUMETAS does not rent, share, or sell any constituent contact information (address, phone, email) with any third party organizations.

We take precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and offline.
Wherever we collect sensitive information, such as credit card data, through our website, this information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a closed lock icon at the bottom of your web browser, or looking for “https” at the beginning of the address of the web page.
While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job are granted access to personally identifiable information.
Any information you choose to provide in an email to us may not be secure.
