The Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Arizona displays and adheres to this statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for this Web site – www.wishaz.org.

Stewardship
We value your trust in us, and so we promise to keep confidential the identity of all donors on our mailing lists. We do not rent, sell, or exchange these lists. We always strive to be responsible in our management, truthful in our advertising, and cost-effective in our fund raising efforts.

Personal contact information collected and what we do with it
When you are making a donation, purchasing a product, expressing an interest in referring a wish child, contributing to our guest book, or subscribing to our online newsletter, we ask you for personal contact information, including your name, mailing address, phone number, and e-mail address. We will use this contact information to provide you with information or resources you have requested, such as information about the Make-A-Wish Foundation, a receipt, or a financial report, or we will use your information to contact you to clarify or verify other information, such as an order you placed, a donation you made, or a wish child that you have referred.

Personal contact information is not shared with any organization outside of the Make-A-Wish Foundation and our agents (reputable companies we use for services, such as sending Make-A-Wish Foundation mail).

Personal billing information we collect and what we do with it
In addition to personal contact information, we ask for billing information, such as your billing address and credit card number, when you make a donation or purchase. We use secure servers to gather and process your billing information. These secure servers are hosted by our agent Acteva, which is bound by our site policies. Your billing information is not shared with any other organizations, and your credit card number is not retained once your transaction has been authorized and processed. Acteva's digital ID Certificate is issued by Verisign, Inc. They also participate in BBBOnline. For more information, visit www.acteva.com

Other contact information we collect and what we do with it
In some instances, we ask for contact information for people other than yourself - for example, e-mail addresses of friends to whom you wish to send a copy of one of our pages or the mailing address of someone you wish to have us notify of a donation you have made. Such contact information is not added to any mailing list nor is the information shared with any other organization. Collecting such information for our own use is called prospecting. The Make-A-Wish Foundation does not prospect.

How to view or change your information
With the exception of credit card numbers, which are not retained, you can view and request changes to all the information you have given us, including any mailing lists you may be on, by contacting us at:
