It does not apply to information collected by us offline or through any other means, including on any other website operated by any third party or us. It also does not apply to information collected by any third party, including through any application or content that may link to or be accessible from or on the website.

Information Collected

For each visitor to our website, our servers collect information about your interactions with our web site, including your IP address and web browser used. We use third-party service providers to perform certain services. The third-party service providers may collect your bank or credit card information if you submit a donation, but that information is not passed on to RTSWS. We also use a third-party service provider to collect information needed to conduct background checks on our volunteers (e.g., date of birth and social security number). During student and volunteer registration, we collect names, postal and email addresses, and other information you voluntarily submit to us. We also collect personal information of visitors who submit their information via our online forms (e.g., Registration, Contact Us).

Communications

We maintain an internal email list of all persons who have requested information, enrolled in our programs, volunteered, etc. We use this list to send emails about our organization. If you do not wish to receive email, you may opt out at any time by sending an email to info@rockthestreetwallstreet.com. Requests are processed within 10 business days. Please note that transactional emails may still be sent to you on an as-needed basis.

How We Use Information

We use information that we collect about you or that you provide to us, including any personal information, to present our website and its contents to you; to allow you to participate in interactive features on our website; to provide you with information or services that you request from us; to carry out our obligations and enforce our rights arising from any contracts entered into between you and us; to notify you about changes to our website or any services we offer or provide though it; in any other way we may describe when you provide the information; and for any other purpose with your consent.

How We Share Information

The personally identifying information we maintain at RTSWS is for internal use only and will not be sold, rented, or exchanged with any third party. We do not share personal data (including phone numbers) and consent with third parties, affiliates, or partners. These third parties do not have the right to use the personally identifying information that we provide to them beyond what is necessary to assist us. Personally identifying information of enrolled participants is shared with our volunteers and sponsors in the form of program participants that include the participant’s name, contact information, and other information directly related to participation in the program. We may aggregate data and share it with third parties after personally identifiable information has been removed. At times, RTSWS may be required by law or litigation to disclose personally identifying information. We may disclose any information in our possession if we are required to do so by law, or we believe, in good faith, that such a disclosure is necessary to comply with the law, defend our rights or property, or to respond to an emergency situation. We also may transfer or share your information to a new or successor entity or affiliate in the event that we undergo a reorganization or merger with another entity, such as another charity with a similar goal or purpose. We do not disclose personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes.

How We Protect Information

RTSWS takes precautions to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft, and misuse as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. We have physical, electronic, and managerial procedures in place, as well as document retention policies that safeguard and secure the information we collect from you.
