If you make a donation, we will request personally identifiable information about you, such as your name, address, phone number, email address and debit/credit card information. We seek such information primarily to facilitate donations and to communicate with you about them. In addition, we may use such information to improve our marketing and promotional efforts, analyze website usage, improve our content and product offerings, and customize our website’s content, layout and services. If you opt in to communications from POTS when prompted, we may use personal information to contact you and send you information, such as e-mail updates.

Unless you specify that a gift be “anonymous” or otherwise request that your name not be listed, we list the names of donors who give $1,000 and up in some marketing materials, so as to recognize their generosity publicly. We do not sell, share or rent our donor lists to anyone, nor do we include donor names in any direct mail solicitations.

We may use outside service providers to facilitate POTS’ website and overall operation, and to perform functions on our behalf, such as sending postal mail and email, removing repetitive information from donor lists, analyzing data, processing credit card payments and providing customer service. These third parties may have access to your personal information as needed to perform their functions, but they may not use it for any other purpose.

In the event you do not wish to receive any of the information, or allow POTS to use the General or Personal Information as set forth in this and the “Information Collection and Use” sections, you can notify POTS directly at www.potsbronx.org or at 718-220-4892. If you are making an electronic donation and wish to opt-out of such release, simply click on the “Opt-Out” box contained on the donation form. Upon receipt of your request to opt-out, POTS will remove your information from any future marketing communications and all other uses set forth in the Privacy Policy.
