November 7, 2018

This privacy policy describes how we handle your personal information for services available through Volunteer For Dental’s Web Site (the “Web Site”). By accepting the Privacy Policy and the Conditions of Use Agreement through your use of this Web Site and/or in registration of an account or other use of this Web Site, you expressly consent to our collection, storage, use and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy is effective upon acceptance for new users and is otherwise effective on November 7, 2018 and shall continue to be effective thereafter for all users until such time as this Privacy Policy shall be revised.

Data Collection

You may browse the Web Site without telling us who you are or revealing any personal information about yourself. Once you give us your personal information, you are not anonymous to us. If you choose to provide us with personal information, you consent to the transfer and storage of that information to our servers.

We may collect and store the following personal information:

  • email address, physical contact information
  • statistics on page views, traffic to and from the Web Site, and other information, including IP address and standard web log information.
  • Should you choose to correspond with us through email, we may retain the content of your email messages together with your email address and our responses. We provide the same protections for these electronic communications that we employ in the maintenance of information received by mail and telephone.
  • Email that you may send to us may not be secure unless we advise you that security measures will be in place prior to your transmitting the information. For this reason, we ask that you do not send confidential information to us through an unsecured e-mail.

Your information will only be used to respond to you, regarding the reason you contacted us.

We don’t sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes

Once you agree, the file is added and the cookie helps analyze web traffic or lets you know when you visit a particular site. Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering information about your preferences.
