Privacy Policy
POLICY DETAILSWe use this policy to tell you about the types of information we collect from you when you visit our site or use authorized features or apps that link to this policy. More specifically, this policy tells you:
● The types of information we collect and how we collect it;
● The ways in which we use, share and protect that information;
● The choices you have in controlling the collection of your information; and
● Your ability to access and update your information.
This policy provides you with the information you need to make an informed choice about your use of the website and social media features we offer, and whether to share personal information with us through the services. By using our site or authorized features, you are signifying to us that you agree with this policy. Although the site and authorized features contain links to other sites and services, you should be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of those, or any other, sites and services. If you have questions about how those sites and services collect and use data, you should contact those sites and services directly.
INFORMATION COLLECTIONThis site utilizes the following:
● Cookies to track anonymous data;
● Third-party tracking with Google Analytics;
● Data collected by Google Analytics Demographics and Interest reports;
● Facebook website insights;
The above are used to obtain, store, and use the following information:
● Non-personal information that is collected automatically;
● Personal information that you voluntarily provide to us through form completion and
connecting Google Analytics
We do not collect any personal information from you when you visit our site or use authorized features and apps unless you expressly and voluntarily participate in an activity that asks for it and you voluntarily provide it. To put it another way, for us to have access to your personal data, you need to have made a knowing choice to give it to us.
THIRD-PARTY COOKIESThird-Party Links
Occasionally, at our discretion, we may include or offer third-party products or services on our website. These third-party sites have separate and independent privacy policies. We therefore have no responsibility or liability for the content and activities of these linked sites. Nonetheless, we seek to protect the integrity of our site and welcome any feedback about these sites.
We have implemented the following:
● Google Analytics Demographics and Interests Reporting;
● Google Optimize;
● Google Remarketing tag;
We, along with third-party vendors such as Google, use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookies) and third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) or other third-party identifiers together to compile data regarding user interactions with ad impressions and other ad service functions as they relate to our website.
Google Analytics User ID Tracking
The User ID is a Universal Analytics feature that you can use to associate multiple sessions (and any activity within those sessions) with a unique ID. When you send an unique ID and any related engagement data to Google Analytics, all activity is attributed to one user in your reports. With the User ID, you can get a more accurate user count, analyze the signed-in user experience, and get access to the new Cross Device reports.

CALIFORNIA ONLINE PRIVACY PROTECTION ACTCalOPPA is the first state law in the nation to require commercial websites and online services to post a privacy policy. The law’s reach stretches well beyond California to require any person or company in the United States (and conceivably the world) that operates websites collecting Personally Identifiable Information from California consumers to post a conspicuous privacy policy on its website stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals or companies with whom it is being shared. See more at ConsumerCal.org.
According to CalOPPA, we agree to the following:
Users can visit our site anonymously. Once this privacy policy is created, we will add a link to it on our home page or as a minimum, on the first significant page after entering our website. Our Privacy Policy link includes the word ‘Privacy’ and can easily be found on the page specified above.
You will be notified of any Privacy Policy changes:
• On our Privacy Policy Page
You can change your personal information:
• By emailing us at sparker@hungerfreevt.org
USES OF INFORMATIONWe use voluntarily provided personal information to communicate directly with you via email. We do not sell or rent your personal information to third party data vendors or marketing companies. We use non-personal information to administer our site and apps, make them better, and to make business decisions about what programs and content our communities might like.
Control Information
At any time you may opt out of future communication with us. To opt-out of email communications that you had previously requested, you can click the ‘unsubscribe’ links included at the bottom of every email correspondence.

INFORMATION SECURITYWe will take all reasonable security precautions to protect your personal information provided through our services. Due to the inherently open and somewhat risky nature of the Internet, however, we cannot guarantee that your information, whether during transmission or while stored on our systems or otherwise in our care, will be free from unauthorized access or that loss, misuse, destruction or alteration will not occur from the acts or omissions of third parties. You should also note that third-party companies who help us operate and maintain both our services and our corporate technology environment will have incidental access to your information, including your personal information, as part of the work they perform. We require that they enter into confidentiality and other agreements, but cannot guarantee their compliance with such agreements. We disclaim any and all liability arising in any manner from any theft or loss of, unauthorized access or damage to, or any interception of any data or communications.
CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICYWe reserve the right to change or update this policy from time to time. Please check this policy periodically for such changes since all information collected is subject to the policy that is in place at that time. If the law requires, or if in our sole discretion we feel it is appropriate, we’ll provide a summary of changes we’ve made near the end of the updated policy.
