This privacy statement discloses the privacy practices for the Springfield Foundation. The Springfield Foundation is committed to the privacy of those individuals who visit and interact with www.springfieldfoundation.org, and follows these practices.

What personally-identifiable information does the Springfield Foundation collect on its site, and how does the organization use it?
The Springfield Foundation is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement. The Springfield Foundation may collect information from our users at several different points on our website.

Log Files
The Springfield Foundation uses the IP address from your Internet connection to analyze trends, administer the site, track users' movements, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to any personally identifiable information, unless the user actively registers for services with the Foundation where a log-in is issued.

Newsletters
If a user wishes to subscribe to our newsletter, we ask for contact information such as name and email address. The Springfield Foundation may ask for additional information, such as content, interest or activity preferences. This information is used to contact the user/subscriber about the news for which they have expressed an interest. It is optional for the user/subscriber to provide demographic information (such as country, or zip code), but we do encourage this so that we can provide a more personal and customized experience on our website.

Links
The Springfield Foundation website contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the content, functionality, or privacy practices of other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site to read the privacy statements of each and every website that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this website.

Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's hard drive containing information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on the Springfield Foundation site, unless you actively register for any of our services that may require a log-in to access. Once the user closes their web browser, most cookies simply terminate. If a user rejects the cookie, they may still use our site, but this may limit functionality in some areas of our site. Cookies can also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site, but again, this is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information.

How can I correct any inaccuracies in information I provide or remove myself from the Springfield Foundation database?
If a user's personally identifiable information changes (such as your zip code or email address), or if a user no longer desires to subscribe to our services, the Springfield Foundation will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update or remove that user's personal data provided to us. Users may opt-out of receiving newsletter and email communications by replying with "unsubscribe" link in the body of each email.

Notification of Changes
If the Foundation decides to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this page so our users are always aware of what information we collect and how we use it.
