Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important to us, and maintaining your trust and confidence is one of our highest priorities. We respect your right to keep your personal information confidential and understand your desire to avoid unwanted solicitations. We hope that by taking a few minutes to read it, you will have a better understanding of what we do with the information you provide us and how we keep it private and secure.

A. Types of Information We Collect

We collect certain personal information about you, including your name, mailing address, phone number, and e-mail address, but only when that information is provided by you or is obtained by us with your authorization. We use that information to prepare the acknowledgment of your donations and/or to send communications materials to you.

Examples of sources from which we collect information include:

  • phone calls with you,
  • letters or e-mails from you, and
  • donations online

If you make a donation, we may also collect your credit card and account information. This information is kept securely in our financial database and is never disclosed to anyone. Only those employees who have a legitimate business purpose for accessing and handling this information are given authorization to do so. The unauthorized access or use of such information by a PRASAD Children’s Dental Health Program employee or volunteer is prohibited and constitutes grounds for disciplinary action.

B. Parties to Whom We Disclose Information

As a general rule, we do not disclose personal information about our donors or former donors to anyone. However, to the extent permitted by law, certain nonpublic information about you may be disclosed in the following situations:

  • To comply with a validly issued and enforceable subpoena or summons.
  • In the course of a review of our organization’s practices under the authorization of a state or internal auditors.
  • As a part of any actual or threatened legal proceedings or alternative dispute resolution proceedings either initiated by or against us, provided we disclose only the information necessary to file, pursue, or defend against the lawsuit and take reasonable precautions to ensure that the information disclosed does not become a matter of public record.
  • To provide information to affiliates of the organization who perform services or functions for us in conjunction with our services to you, but only if we have a contractual agreement with the other party which prohibits them from disclosing or using the information other than for the purposes for which it was disclosed
  • To comply with IRS reporting requirements as specified on IRS Form 990.

C. Confidentiality and Security of Nonpublic Personal Information

Except as otherwise described in this notice, we restrict access to nonpublic personal information about you to employees of our organization and other parties who must use that information to provide us with mailing services. Their right to further disclose and use the information is limited by the policies of our organization, applicable law, and nondisclosure agreements where appropriate. We also maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards in compliance with applicable laws and regulations to guard your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, or premature destruction.
