Saving A Child’s Heart Initiative MAY SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION: Personal information will be shared internally at Saving A Child’s Heart Initiative to complete your donations to contact you about our on-going work, and ways that you can further support our efforts to help children in need. Your personal information will also be used to provide you access to the various sections of our website that have been personalized for your needs.

EXCEPTIONS: Saving A Child’s Heart Initiative reserves the right to share your personal information in certain situations:
1. Credit Card Transactions, Electronic Fund Transfers, Payments by Check or Money Order and On-line Transactions. Saving A Child’s Heart Initiative hires third parties to provide credit card, bank, payment and information processing services and order fulfillment services. If you choose to make a donation on-line, by phone, through the mail or by other means, or make a purchase from our on-line Gift Shop we will share your personal information with our processing service providers. We make an effort to require all third party service-providers to hold personal information in strict confidence. While we believe these other companies are upstanding and will treat your personal information responsibly, we do not own or control them and cannot guarantee your privacy.
2. Necessity. If we have reason to believe that there has been some inappropriate interference with or use of our website, communications, charitable services or personal or real property (for example, see the Terms of Use), or if we have reason to believe that one of the Saving A Child’s Heart Initiative website users, donors, employees or other related parties may have been injured or may have harmed some other party, we will disclose, without notice to you, personal information as we deem appropriate or if compelled by a legal or regulatory authority.
3. Merger, Acquisition or other Corporate Restructure. We also may transfer your personal information to a third party successor in interest if we are involved in an acquisition, merger or other transfer of control or sale of assets.
WEBSITE LINKS: In order to provide certain services and goods at our website, we contract with other companies and individuals. These additional services and goods may include “links” to other websites from our website. Saving A Child’s Heart Initiative privacy practices may not be applicable at any third-party sites. Anytime you leave the Saving A Child’s Heart Initiative website, we have no control regarding what information may be collected about you, nor do we control what third-parties might do with the information. For example, when you click on a merchant’s name at the Saving A Child’s Heart Initiative, you will be connected with the third-party merchant’s website (even if the Saving A Child’s Heart Initiative name/logo is on the screen). This merchant website should have its own privacy statement applying to transactions at their website. It is important that you review any privacy policies on third-party sites carefully, BEFORE you use any services or programs offered.
CHANGES TO PRIVACY PRACTICES: From time to time, Saving A Child’s Heart Initiative may revise its privacy practices to address changing technology, security measures and website functionality. We strive to provide you with timely notice of these changes. Please contact us if you have any questions about changes to our practices.
