Privacy

At the Edith Sanford Breast Cancer Foundation, we vow to keep any information that we collect via our website confidential. This includes your name, address, email address and other information that you disclose. The data you provide us is used to process the services in which you have requested and is only accessed by authorized personnel.

We will notify you whether the information you are providing is being submitted through a secure or unsecured site. (When you come across a web page that is secured, your browser will likely display a “closed lock” or other symbol to inform you that SSL has been enabled. The web address should also now start with “https://” rather than “http://”. In a nutshell, SSL allows a secure connection between your web browser and a web server. This secure information “tunnel” is being widely adopted by numerous companies for client services, from credit card purchases to online banking transactions.)

Sending an email directly to an email address that is found on our website is not considered secure. We have identified areas of the website that are secure and encourage you to only submit highly sensitive and/or personal information through those sites. Those areas include Online Gifts.

通过我们的网站收集的信息不会与伊迪丝·桑福德乳腺癌基金会及其相关实体之外的任何实体共享,除非您特别授权我们共享这些信息,或者根据基金会的善意信念,这是法律要求的。

请注意,其他网站可能会通过我们的网站链接,以方便我们的用户。伊迪丝·桑福德乳腺癌基金会对其他网站的隐私做法不负责,当您离开我们的网站时,我们鼓励您了解并阅读这些网站的隐私声明,以确保您的隐私和机密性。

By using our website, you consent to the collection and use of your information by the Edith Sanford Breast Cancer Foundation as detailed in our Privacy Statement. We may make changes to our Privacy Statement from time to time, and we will post any changes on this page so that you are constantly aware of the information we collect and the ways in which we use it. The Edith Sanford Breast Cancer Foundation may place a text file called a “cookie” in the browser files of your computer. The cookie itself does not contain Personal Information although it will enable the site to relate your use of the site to information that you have specifically and knowingly provided to the site. The site may also collect your IP address, which does not contain personal information. The IP addresses will be used to monitor site usage statistics.

Although we normally do not collect this type of information, we are part of the Sanford Health system and are required by law to post this information.
