Everyday Giving strives to offer its visitors the many
advantages of Internet technology and to provide an
interactive and personalized experience. We may use
Personally Identifiable Information (your name, e-mail
address, street address, telephone number) subject to the
terms of this privacy policy. We will never sell, barter, or
rent your email address to any unauthorized third party.
Period.”
How we gather information from users
How we collect and store information depends on the page you
are visiting, the activities in which you elect to
participate and the services provided. For example, you may
be asked to provide information when you register for access
to certain portions of our site or request certain features,
such as newsletters or when you make a purchase. You may
provide information when you participate in sweepstakes and
contests, message boards and chat rooms, and other
interactive areas of our site. Like most Web sites, Everyday
Giving also collects information automatically and through
the use of electronic tools that may be transparent to our
visitors. For example, we may log the name of your Internet
Service Provider or use cookie technology to recognize you
and hold information from your visit. Among other things,
the cookie may store your user name and password, sparing
you from having to re-enter that information each time you
visit, or may control the number of times you encounter a
particular advertisement while visiting our site. As we
adopt additional technology, we may also gather information
through other means. In certain cases, you can choose not to
provide us with information, for example by setting your
browser to refuse to accept cookies, but if you do you may
be unable to access certain portions of the site or may be
asked to re-enter your user name and password, and we may
not be able to customize the site’s features according to
your preferences.
What we do with the information we collect
Like other Web publishers, we collect information to enhance
your visit and deliver more individualized content and
advertising. We respect your privacy and do not share your
information with anyone.
Aggregated Information (information that does not personally
identify you) may be used in many ways. For example, we may
combine information about your usage patterns with similar
information obtained from other users to help enhance our
site and services (e.g., to learn which pages are visited
most or what features are most attractive). Aggregated
Information may occasionally be shared with our advertisers
and business partners. Again, this information does not
include any Personally Identifiable Information about you or
allow anyone to identify you individually.
We may use Personally Identifiable Information collected on
Everyday Giving to communicate with you about your
registration and customization preferences; our Terms of
Service and privacy policy; services and products offered by
Everyday Giving and other topics we think you might find of
interest.
Personally Identifiable Information collected by Everyday
Giving may also be used for other purposes, including but
not limited to site administration, troubleshooting,
processing of e-commerce transactions, administration of
sweepstakes and contests, and other communications with you.
Certain third parties who provide technical support for the
operation of our site (our Web hosting service for example)
may access such information. We will use your information
only as permitted by law. In addition, from time to time as
we continue to develop our business, we may sell, buy, merge
or partner with other companies or businesses. In such
transactions, user information may be among the transferred
assets. We may also disclose your information in response to
a court order, at other times when we believe we are
reasonably required to do so by law, in connection with the
collection of amounts you may owe to us, and/or to law
enforcement authorities whenever we deem it appropriate or
necessary. Please note we may not provide you with notice
prior to disclosure in such cases.
Affiliated sites, linked sites and advertisements
Everyday Giving expects its partners, advertisers and
affiliates to respect the privacy of our users. Be aware,
however, that third parties, including our partners,
advertisers, affiliates and other content providers
accessible through our site, may have their own privacy and
data collection policies and practices. For example, during
your visit to our site you may link to, or view as part of a
frame on a Everyday Giving page, certain content that is
actually created or hosted by a third party. Also, through
Everyday Giving you may be introduced to, or be able to
access, information, Web sites, features, contests or
sweepstakes offered by other parties. Everyday Giving is not
responsible for the actions or policies of such third
parties. You should check the applicable privacy policies of
those third parties when providing information on a feature
or page operated by a third party.
While on our site, our advertisers, promotional partners or
other third parties may use cookies or other technology to
attempt to identify some of your preferences or retrieve
information about you. For example, some of our advertising
is served by third parties and may include cookies that
enable the advertiser to determine whether you have seen a
particular advertisement before. Other features available on
our site may offer services operated by third parties and
may use cookies or other technology to gather information.
Everyday Giving does not control the use of this technology
by third parties or the resulting information, and is not
responsible for any actions or policies of such third
parties.
You should also be aware that if you voluntarily disclose
Personally Identifiable Information on message boards or in
chat areas, that information can be viewed publicly and can
be collected and used by third parties without our knowledge
and may result in unsolicited messages from other
individuals or third parties. Such activities are beyond the
control of Everyday Giving and this policy.
Children
Everyday Giving does not knowingly collect or solicit
Personally Identifiable Information from or about children
under 13 except as permitted by law. If we discover we have
received any information from a child under 13 in violation
of this policy, we will delete that information immediately.
If you believe Everyday Giving has any information from or
about anyone under 13, please contact us at the address

Changes to this Policy
Everyday Giving reserves the right to change this policy at
any time. Please check this page periodically for changes.
Your continued use of our site following the posting of
changes to these terms will mean you accept those changes.
Information collected prior to the time any change is posted
will be used according to the rules and laws that applied at
the time the information was collected.
Governing law
This policy and the use of this Site are governed by
Virginia law. If a dispute arises under this Policy we agree
to first try to resolve it with the help of a mutually
agreed-upon mediator in the following location: Spotsylvania
County, Virginia. Any costs and fees other than attorney
fees associated with the mediation will be shared equally by
each of us.
If it proves impossible to arrive at a mutually satisfactory
solution through mediation, we agree to submit the dispute
to binding arbitration at the following location:
Spotsylvania County, Virginia, under the rules of the
American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon the award
rendered by the arbitration may be entered in any court with
jurisdiction to do so.
Everyday Giving is controlled, operated and administered
entirely within Virginia. This statement and the policies
outlined herein are not intended to and do not create any
contractual or other legal rights in or on behalf of any
party.
