The Women’s Fund of Santa Barbara (Women’s Fund) is committed to protecting the privacy of our members and users of our website. We maintain the following policies:

Collection of Personally Identifiable Information

Any personally identifiable information (PII) that users share with the Women's Fund is kept private to the best of our ability.

The Women’s Fund maintains contact information required to communicate with members, donors, and interested members of the public. This includes name, email address, postal address, and phone number. Contact information resides on secure servers maintained by our website host. This information may only be used for Women's Fund purposes and may not be used to promote or support any other entity.

Members and donors are added to our mailing list when they contribute to the Women's Fund. Members of the public are only added at their request. Website visitors may always "opt out” or "unsubscribe" at any time if they do not wish to receive Women's Fund messages.

Collection of Personal Credit Card Information

The Women's Fund collects financial information through its website, including credit card numbers, only to accept online membership contributions, donations, or registration for Women's Fund events. Credit card payments are accepted only via a level 1, PCI-compliant third-party payment processor. The Women's Fund does not retain any credit card information on its website.

How We Use Information

We use our users’ information to manage membership, process donations, and send updates about our programs and events. The Women's Fund does not sell, rent, share, or lend to anyone the personal information of its online community members or registered site users.

Sharing User Information

We share your PII only with trusted third-party service providers (such as our website host and payment processor) who assist us in our operations and agree to keep user information confidential. We may also disclose information if required by law.
