What Information We Collect and How We Use That Information:

This type of information is shared externally, if at all, only on an aggregated basis.
Our registration forms require users to give us contact information that may include name, email address, format preference (HTML vs. Text), address, interests, and similar information. We use this information to contact you should there be a question about your donation and we also use this information to personalize communications to you to keep you informed about our programs and progress. From time to time, CSCOA allows other worthy organizations to send mail to our donors. We carefully screen these organizations and only permit mailings from those whose services may be of interest to our supporters. If you do not wish to receive these mailings, or if you would like to change the frequency or types of communications you receive from us, simply email us at optout@cscoa.us and we will be pleased to respect your wishes.
