You may provide personal information to us and our third-party service providers through the Website, when you apply for or inquire about employment with us, make a donation, inquire about partnering with us or becoming a sponsor, or when you e-mail, call, or otherwise communicate with us. The types of personal information you provide differ depending on how you choose to interact with us, but may include name, email, phone number, and address, or any other personal information you choose to provide to us.

Usage Information. We may collect information about how you interact with the Website. This may include information such as the dates and time you visit the Website, the page you view, referring / exit URLS, your browser type, and the domain name of your internet service provider. In some cases, we may collect this information through cookies and similar technologies. To learn more about these technologies, please see the “Cookies and Similar Technologies” section below.

Cookies and Similar Technologies
When you visit our Website, we may obtain certain information by automated means, such as cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies and techniques. A “cookie” is a text file that websites send to a visitor’s computer or other Internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser. A “web beacon”, also known as an Internet tag, pixel tag, or clear GIF, links web pages to web servers and cookies and may be used to transmit information collected through cookies back to a web server. The information that we and our third party service providers may track with cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies may include the type of browser (such as Google Chrome or Internet Explorer) and Internet-connected devices being used to access the Website, your IP address, your home domain or Internet service provider, your referrer URL (the URL for the website that you were viewing prior to visiting the Website), how you were directed to the Website, which specific pages you access on the Website, how long you view each page, the time and date you access our Website, and the total number of visitors to the Website and any portions thereof.
Most popular Internet browser applications will allow you to adjust the browser so as not to accept cookies. For mobile devices, you can manage how your device and browser share certain data by adjusting the privacy and security settings on your mobile device. However, making such adjustments may, in certain instances, prevent you from taking full advantage of the Website (or some portion thereof) and its capabilities, or cause some features of the Website to function improperly or more slowly.
Google Analytics
We may use Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google, together with other analytics services, in order to better understand your use of the Website and how we can improve them. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit a website, what pages you visit when you do so, and what other websites you used prior to coming to such website. Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit a website, rather than your name or other directly identifying information. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with your personal information. Although Google Analytics plants a persistent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit a website, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. Google Analytics uses its cookie(s) and the information Google Analytics collects to track your online activities over time and across different websites when you use our Website, and other websites. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to the Website are governed by the Google Analytics Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy. Google may utilize the data collected to track and examine the use of the Website, to prepare reports on its activities, and share them with other Google services. To more fully understand how Google may use the data it collects through the Website, please review “How Google Uses Information From Sites or Apps That Use Our Services” (located here).
