United Way values the trust its donors and other stakeholders place in the organization and adheres to the highest standards in gathering, using and safeguarding their information. This includes all of their personal data, giving history and any volunteer information we collect and/or track.

Sharing/Accessing Information We Collect

If you choose to contribute to the United Way, you complete a pledge form that asks you to provide us with your name, address, e-mail address, and pledge information.

United Way will not rent, trade, sell or share any information about its donors or other stakeholders without express written consent from the donor.

United Way employees who may access your information in order to perform pledge processing and/or administrative functions are prohibited from disclosing your information to third parties without your consent.

Organizations that provide operational or other support services to us must also agree to safeguard your information in strict compliance with our Privacy Policy.

Your Participation is Voluntary

Your relationship with United Way is voluntary and confidential. There are times when we publicly recognize and thank donors, volunteers and other stakeholders for their generosity. This may require us to occasionally release a list of names and possible organizational affiliations. In such cases, other organizations and third parties will have access to these names and possible giving levels (as listed in our Leadership Book).

We also use your information to send acknowledgement of your gift information and anything we think you may find of interest about United Way. If you do not wish to receive such communications, you may let us know at any time by contacting the United Way Office. In addition, every e-mail message you receive from United Way will include instructions on how to unsubscribe.

Our Commitment to Data Security

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put procedures in place to safeguard and secure the information, to the best of our ability. Firewalls prevent outside unauthorized parties from accessing our database and internal United Way access to the database is restricted to authorized individuals.
