Privacy Policy

Statement of Donor Confidentiality

It is the policy of The Happiness Factory to maintain the highest level of confidentiality with respect to donor information. The Happiness Factory does not, and will not, share information regarding donor gifts to The Happiness Factory with any individual or organization not affiliated with The Happiness Factory without written permission from the donor. The Happiness Factory may make your postal information available to other not-for-profit organizations.

 From time to time donor names may be listed in The Happiness Factory’s publications, but only in compliance with the written agreement establishing the gift. Donors may choose to remain anonymous and unless required by law, The Happiness Factory will honor that request. We also maintain the following privacy policy with respect to our website to protect personal information you provide online.

 

Website Policy

Like all web site owners, The Happiness Factory receives and records information from your browser in our Web site server logs, including your Internet provider address and the pages you request. Aside from this standard tracking data, the only other personal information we collect about you is such data as you knowingly provide through our online forms.

The Happiness Factory uses the information you share with us to be able to send you the electronic communications you request, various printed publications or mail appeals, and to help administer and improve our web site. Most areas of our site are accessible without registration of any kind. Some of our services require some identification in order to be effective.

The Happiness Factory is the sole owner of any information collected on this site. We will not share your information with any third–party organization without your explicit permission to do so. Personal information you provide is stored in a secure location and is accessible only by designated staff. Again, any information provided here will be kept confidential.

 

Changes to this Privacy Policy

The Happiness Factory may amend this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make any significant changes in the way we use your personal information, we will alert you by posting a prominent notice on our site.
