Browsing
CMMB does not collect any personally identifying information from you when you visit our sites unless you choose to provide it to us.
You can safely browse the CMMB website without revealing personally identifiable information. The information we gather during normal browsing comes from two sources: standard server logs collecting information such as the IP (Internet Protocol) address, domain name, browser type, operating system, mobile related information if you access our website using your mobile device, and information such as the site that referred you to us, the files you downloaded, the pages you visited, and the dates/times of those visits. This information is used to improve our website by making it more easily navigable and ensuring that visitors can easily find what they’re looking for.
California Privacy Rights
If you are a resident of California, Section 1798.83 of the California Civil Code permits you to request from a business certain information about the types of personal data the business has shared with third parties for those third parties’ direct marketing purposes and the names and addresses of the third parties with whom the business has shared such information during the immediately preceding calendar year. You may make one request each year by contacting us via email at info@cmmb.org or phone at 800-678-5659.

Donor Information
If you make a donation, CMMB will request certain information about you (such as your name, address, telephone number, email address, and credit card information). This information ensures that we can securely process your donation and communicate with you about it. We may also use your information to keep you updated about our work, analyze website usage, and improve our services.
CMMB works with companies to help us host our donor information database, send postal mail and email, and process online and mail donations as well as credit card payments. We may disclose the information we collect from you to vendors, service providers, contractors or agents who perform functions on our behalf. They are only authorized to use this information as necessary to provide their specific services to us.
CMMB is PCI-compliant, as are all third-party vendors used by CMMB. More information about PCI compliance can be found on the PCI Security and Standards Council website (https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/).
We may occasionally share portions of our donor list with other non-profit organizations.
