The Eleanor Crook Foundation (“Foundation,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) owns and/or operates this website (together with any other websites owned and/or operated by the Foundation, the “Sites”). The Sites are provided by the Foundation to the person accessing the Sites (“you” or “your”).
The Foundation has created this privacy policy to explain what information we gather from you when you visit our Sites or otherwise interact with us, how we may use this information, to whom and under what circumstances we may disclose it, and the security approaches we use to protect your information (this “Privacy Policy”). As used in this Privacy Policy, “Personal Information” includes anything that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could be reasonably linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular individual or household. Your access to, and use of, the Sites is also subject to the Foundation’s Website Terms of Use, available at uniform resource locator (as such terms of use may be modified from time to time as described therein, the “Terms of Use”). This Privacy Policy is incorporated and made part of the Foundation’s Terms of Use.
By using the Sites, you consent to the collection, use, processing, transfer, and disclosure of your information by the Foundation in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the Privacy Policy, please do not visit or use the Sites. We may modify this Privacy Policy at any time and will post the current version on the Sites. We encourage you to periodically review our Privacy Policy to stay informed about how we are using the information we collect.

Aggregate Information and De-identified Information: We may aggregate the personal information that we collect identified above for purposes of statistical analysis, research, and other purposes. In addition, non-Personal Information or de-identified information that we collect from you may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.
Right to Opt-Out or Withdraw Consent: In some jurisdictions, individuals may have the right to opt-in or withdraw consent for certain uses. If you reside in such jurisdictions, you may have additional rights which are detailed in the “Access, Correction and Deletion of Personal Information” section below.
If you do not wish to receive communications from us notifying you of Foundation activities, opportunities, and/or programs, you can opt-out of receiving these communications by following the instructions contained in the messages you receive. Even if you opt-out of receiving these messages, we reserve the right to send you certain communications relating to the services we provide, and we may send you service announcements and administrative messages. We do not offer you the opportunity to opt-out of receiving those communications.
Disclosure with Other Third Parties: Except to the extent expressly stated in this Privacy Policy, we generally do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your Personal Information identified above, unless we provide you with advance notice or you direct us to share your Personal Information. The term “outside parties” does not include our affiliates, website hosting or payment processing partners, third-party vendors, and other parties who assist us in operating the Sites, conducting our operations, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential.
2. Use of “Cookies” or Similar Tools
Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer’s hard drive through your web browser (if you allow) that enables the site’s or service provider’s systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information. We use cookies to help us remember and process the items in your applications and programs. Cookies are also used to help us understand your preferences based on previous or current activity on the Sites, which enables us to provide you with improved services. We also use cookies to help us compile aggregate data about traffic on the Sites and interaction with the Sites so that we can offer better experiences with the Sites and our offerings in the future.
We may contract with third-party service providers (such as Google Analytics) to assist us in better understanding our visitors to the Sites. To learn how Google Analytics collects and processes data, please visit: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
If you choose, you can set your browser to reject cookies or you can manually delete individual cookies or all of the cookies on your computer by following your browser’s help file directions. However, if your browser is set to reject cookies or you manually delete cookies, you may have some trouble accessing and using some of the pages and features that are currently on our Sites, or that we may put on our Sites in the future. Note that browser-management tools for cookies are outside of our control and we cannot guarantee their effectiveness. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret web browser-based “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) signals other than cookies, we do not currently respond to undefined “DNT” signals to the Sites.
We may combine the information we collect through cookies with other information we have collected from you or information from other sources.

We respect your right to access and correct your Personal Information. You may contact us as indicated in the “Contact Us” section below to request that we correct or modify such information.

4. Retention of Personal Information
Personal Information that we collect, access, or process will be retained only as long as necessary for the fulfillment of the purposes for which it was collected, unless otherwise provided in agreements between you and the Foundation or as required or authorized by law. Personal Information that is no longer required to fulfill the identified purposes will be destroyed, erased, or made de-identified.

We maintain reasonable and appropriate measures designed to maintain information we collect in a secure manner. We have taken certain physical, electronic, and administrative steps to safeguard and secure the information we collect from visitors to the Sites. Even though we follow reasonable procedures to try to protect the information in our possession, no security system is perfect, and we cannot promise, and you should not expect, that your information will be secure in all circumstances. You agree to promptly notify us of any breach of security that you become aware of involving our Sites or services.
6. Privacy and Third-Party Links
This Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected through the Sites. To provide you with increased value, we may include third-party links on the Sites, which may have privacy policies that differ from our own. We are not responsible for the activities and practices that take place on these websites. Accordingly, we recommend that you review the privacy policy posted on any external site before disclosing any Personal Information. Please contact those websites directly if you have any questions about their privacy policies. We therefore have no responsibility or liability for the content and activities of these linked sites. Nonetheless, we seek to protect the integrity of the Sites and welcome any feedback about these linked sites (including if a specific link does not work).

We do not knowingly intend to collect Personal Information from children under 13 years of age. If a child has provided us with Personal Information, a parent or guardian of that child may contact us in writing at the address indicated in the “Contact Us” section below. Your letter must clearly state that it is a “Request for Child Information Removal” and the name and age of the child must be contained in the body of the message. We will then make reasonable efforts to delete the child’s information from the database that stores information for the Sites.
Further, if you are under 18 years of age and access or use the Site, you have the right to request removal of unwanted information that you publicly post on the Sites. To request removal of such information, please contact us in writing at the address indicated in the “Contact Us” section below.
