Use of IP Addresses and Cookies:
A unique number called an IP address identifies every computer on the Internet. Each time you connect to the Internet your machine is assigned an IP address. An IP address is a number that identifies each sender or receiver of information that is sent in packets across the Internet. The Greene County Foundation uses your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, and to administer the website.
The Greene County Foundation may set and access cookies to improve our level of service to our visitors. Cookies are lines of text that are transmitted to your web browser when you click on a site. Your browser stores the information on your hard drive and when you return to that site later, the cookie is transmitted back to the server that originally sent it to you. Cookies provide a way for a server to recall a previous request or registration or to keep track of a transaction in progress so that information does not have to be repeated.
The Greene County Foundation may also collect certain demographic information about visitors to our site through the use of cookies. The Foundation only uses this data to improve the overall website and for internal business purposes.
Sharing Information:
Information on our volunteers, such as lists of committee members, is provided in several of our publications. We will periodically publicize information about our donors, but only with the permission of the donor. We never sell information to third parties.
We do work with a few third-party sites to perform certain tasks on our behalf. We may need to share personal information with these sites in order to provide products or services to you. These sites do not have any right to use Personal Information or other information we share with them beyond what is necessary to assist us. You hereby consent to our sharing of Personal Information with these providers. We currently use Google Analytics (traffic analysis, SEO optimization), Mailchimp (mailing list management), CommunitySuite (scholarship and grantmaking), and PayPal (payment portal).
