General Data Collection

WMF does not collect personally identifiable information from you unless you provide it to us voluntarily and knowingly. If you make a donation or register for our newsletter, for example, we may collect your name, mailing address, telephone number, email address, and credit card information. If you voluntarily provide such personal information, it will be entered into our constituent database and you may be contacted with information on WMF news, events and services, or to request voluntary contributions.

Your privacy is important to WMF. We do not trade or sell any email addresses. We may, however, use email addresses to process donations and provide requested services, such as register you for a subscription to an e-newsletter. Email recipients may opt out at any time by following the "unsubscribe" link included in every email message.

Some segments of the WMF mailing list are made available to outside organizations as part of WMF’s membership recruitment program. Otherwise we do not trade, share, or sell mailing addresses. If you do not wish WMF to share your mailing address, please email development@wmf.org or call 646-424-9594 to be excluded from all donor mailing list exchanges.
