Privacy Policy

 

Our Commitment to Privacy

The Volunteer Center (TVC) takes your privacy seriously. This notice of our privacy policy is intended to help you understand our online information security practices. The policy covers TVC’s treatment of personally identifiable information that it collects when you are on our website (www.oprfvolunteercenter.org) and when you use TVC’s referral services.

Information Collection and Use

We collect the following from individual Volunteers:

     * First and Last Name

    * Email address

    * Phone number

    * Address and Zip Code

    * The type of opportunity you are interested in

We use the information we collect about you to help facilitate the volunteering process. Programs need this information to begin your application. Please be aware that, to the extent required to provide our services, we share your information with other Volunteers or nonprofit organization partners. If you indicate on our site that you are interested in a particular mentoring opportunity and provide us with your contact information, we will forward your contact information to the organization that is hosting that opportunity so that the organization can contact you regarding your potential involvement.

  • Or we find that your actions on our web sites violate the Terms of Service or any of our usage guidelines for specific products or services

We may share aggregate information about our users with certain third parties.

We use this information to help our partners and funders better understand our services and also to report on public interest in mentoring.
