and to give you choices about how those data will be used. Therefore, we encourage you to read this
Privacy Policy carefully.
Scope of this Privacy Policy
In general, this Privacy Policy applies to all personal information of visitors collected or used by
Save An Athlete.org or its partner organizations. This includes information from web sites for
commercial use that are owned by Save An Athlete.org and offline collections of personal data for
use owned by Save An Athlete.org. However, some of our web sites or data collections work with special
kinds of data (for example, medical data) which require a somewhat different privacy policy.
Whenever and wherever that is the case, Save An Athlete.org will make it clear that the privacy policy
concerned is different from this general Save An Athlete.org privacy policy.

Save An Athlete.org will not sell or provide your personal data to other third parties allowing them to use your personal data for their own purposes.
* Note that these companies often have their own privacy policies that apply to the way they use your personal data.
These privacy policies sometimes differ from the Save An Athlete.org Privacy Policy.
Save An Athlete.org will not share any personal financial information you provide (such as credit card information) with other parties unless this is
needed to handle your order, process our invoice, or prevent or combat fraud. From time to time, this Web Site may provide links to other web sites. You should carefully
review the privacy policies on those sites; they may differ from the Save An Athlete.org Privacy Policy.
“Cookies” and Web Site Logging
Some of our Web Sites will send a "cookie," a small text file, to your computer. This allows us to recognize your computer the next time you visit, without bothering
you with another request to register. And, if you use an online “shopping cart,” cookies allow us to keep track of the products you purchase. If you do not wish to
receive cookies, please refer to the "Help" file of your Internet Browser to learn how to either block all cookies or receive a warning before a cookie is stored.

store some "visitor information" from you, such as the name of the domain and host from which you access the Internet, the Internet Protocol (IP) address of the
computer you are using, the date and time you access our Web Site, and the Internet address of the web site from which you linked directly to our Web Site. We
use this information to measure the traffic on our Web Sites and to help us make our Web Sites more useful. We delete this information after some time.
