At the Blackfoot Challenge (BC), your privacy is critically important to us. We only ask for personal information when it is truly needed to serve our internal business purposes and enhance our programs.

Information We Collect

We collect two types of information to better understand how visitors use our website:

• Non-Personally-Identifying Information: This includes data web browsers typically share, such as browser type, language preference, referring site, IP addresses, and the date/time of each request.
• Personally-Identifying Information: This is gathered only when necessary for specific interactions:
  • Newsletters: We collect names and email addresses from those who sign up to be a member and/or receive our newsletter.
  • Donations: We collect personal and financial information required to process donor transactions.

How We Use and Protect Information

• Purpose: Information is collected only to fulfill the purpose of your interaction with BC.
• Security: We disclose personally-identifying information only to employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations that need the information to process it on our behalf and have agreed to keep it confidential.
• No Third-Party Sales: We will not sell, distribute, or lease your personal information to third parties.
• Legal Requirements: We may disclose information in response to a subpoena, court order, or when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect the rights or property of BC, third parties, or the public.

Cookies and Analytics

• Cookies: We use cookies to identify and track visitors and their website preferences. You may set your browser to refuse cookies, though some website features may not function properly as a result.
• Aggregated Statistics: We may collect and publicly display statistics about visitor behavior (e.g., popular pages) or use services like Akismet to identify spammers.

Email Communication

If you voluntarily subscribe to our occasional e-newsletter, you may remove yourself at any time by following the unsubscribe link provided in every email.
