Use of Cookies

We may use cookies on occasion to track the number of people who visit our site from certain other websites and how they utilize our website. The cookies we use do not personally identify individuals by their name, email address or any other personal attribute. Some general information about visitors to our site is collected automatically. This includes the domain from which you access the Internet (such as AOL or MSN); the web browser you use (such as Internet Explorer or Google Chrome); the date and time of the visit to our site; and the pages that are visited. This information is used for statistical tracking purposes only, to help us improve our website and provide visitors with a positive browsing experience. This information is only compiled in aggregate, so that we know how many people are visiting our site each day, how long people spend viewing our site, which pages are visited most, etc.

This information will never be linked to your personal identity, used to contact you, or released to an outside entity in any way, unless you request that we do so (see the "Personal Information" section below). Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but provide an option for blocking the acceptance of cookies.

Personal Information

Some areas of our website allow you the option to enter personal information. These may include registration information, profile information; requests for materials or information; subscriptions to email communication services; surveys or feedback forms; email links to our departments or individuals; or otherwise. If you voluntarily choose to provide personal information, it may be viewed by various people at Northern California Grantmakers in the process of responding to your online request. If you elect to receive regular e-mail communications from us (such as an e-mail newsletter subscription), you will always be provided with an "opt-out" method so that you can unsubscribe at any time.

If you choose to provide us with personal information, we will never sell, rent or provide this information to others without your consent except as we might be required to do so by law. However, we may share this information with trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to be bound by our site policies and keep this information confidential.

Security

We make extensive use of technologies and techniques to help protect the integrity of the personal information you provide to us via the Internet. Still, you should be aware that electronic communications may not always be secure, in spite of all precautions. If you are concerned about providing sensitive information, you may wish to do so via phone, regular mail or during a personal consultation, rather than electronically.

All financial transactions on our website are managed through our agent, Chase Paymentech. All such transactions use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology, are encrypted, take place on secure servers and occur in real time. Upon completion of each such transaction no credit card or bank information is retained.
