This website is owned and operated by Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club. We recognize that visitors to our site may be concerned about the information they provide to us and how we use that information. By visiting www.kipsbay.org, purchasing an event ticket, or by making a gift to us, you accept the practices described in this policy. This Privacy Policy may be changed or updated at any time.

Data Collection & Personal Information
Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club collects personal information from you only when you voluntarily provide us with such information. For example, if you decide to donate, we will need to know certain personal information to complete the transaction. In addition, Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club currently lists donors in categorical amounts down to $1,000 in its annual report and the names of certain sponsors in our brochures and publications.
We strictly honor any request for anonymity. We do not rent, sell or loan donor lists. When you donate to honor someone else, we do not use the information you give us about that person for any other purpose.
Internet Protocol Address
We collect an IP address from all visitors to our Site. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the Internet. We use IP addresses to help diagnose problems with our server, administer our Site, analyze trends, track users’ movement within our website, gather broad demographic information for aggregate use in order for us to improve the site, and deliver customized, personalized content. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Cookies
We do not capture or store any information via “cookies” that would be placed during a website visit to make a purchase or donation or for any reason.
External Links
Our Privacy Policy applies only to your use of the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club website. This site contains links to other sites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these sites. Links to other sites do not imply an endorsement of the material or policies of those websites. You should read the privacy policies of each site you visit to determine what information they may be collecting from you.
Security
All information provided to Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club is transmitted using SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption. SSL is a proven coding system that lets your browser automatically encrypt, or scramble, data before you send it to us. We also protect account information by placing it on a secure portion of our site that is only accessible by certain qualified employees of Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club. Unfortunately, however, no data transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of such information.
