Our Commitment
KCCFA is committed to protecting the privacy of the
personal information of its employees, donors,
families, volunteers and other stakeholders. We
value the trust of those we deal with, and of the
public, and recognize that maintaining this trust
requires that we be transparent and accountable in
how we treat the information that is shared with us.
Privacy Practices
KCCFA never sells, trades, or loans information to
any other organization. We will use information only
for follow-up contacts (such as our newsletters),
statistical purposes, and to process and recognize
donations.
Personal information gathered by our organization is
kept in confidence. Our personnel and volunteers are
authorized to access personal information based only
on their need to deal with the information for the
reason(s) for which it was obtained. Safeguards are
in place to ensure that the information is not
disclosed or shared more widely than is necessary to
achieve the purpose for which it was gathered. We
also take measures to ensure the integrity of this
information is maintained and to prevent its being
lost or destroyed.
Website and Electronic Commerce
KCCFA does not automatically gather any personal
information from website visitors, such as names,
phone numbers, street addresses, or e-mail addresses
during visits to our web site. This information is
only obtained if it is supplied voluntarily, through
online registration or e-mail. This site does
monitor traffic to count the number of visits but it
does not identify individual users.
We use password protocols and encryption software to
protect personal and other information we receive
when donations are made online. Our software is
routinely updated to maximize protection of such
information.
Contact Information
Question, concerns or complaints relating to KCCFA’s
privacy policy on the treatment of personal
information should be e-mailed to
Trish Matheson. KCCFA is committed to
responding to inquiries and complaints within a
reasonable time (no more than 30 days) and within a
minimal cost to the individual.

regard to your personal information may be found on
