Our Privacy Promise to you
Since our inception in 1924, our stakeholders have entrusted United Way of Tampa Bay with their personal information. Whether you are a donor, a volunteer, an organization, or community partner, our commitment to conduct business honestly and protect your privacy is at the heart of our Privacy Promise.

We respect your confidentiality.
United Way of Tampa Bay requires that your personal information be held in strict confidence. We use your information only for its intended business purpose - we do not sell or trade or give away your information with other organizations or individuals.

We protect your information.
United Way of Tampa Bay employs policies, procedures, and technology to protect the security and confidentiality of your personal information. Within our organization, access to confidential information is limited to those who need it to perform their jobs. We have physical security in our building, restrict access and require passwords to protect our network, applications, files, and databases, and we maintain state of the art virus detection software.

We allow access to your information to auditors and other third parties only as mandated by regulatory requirements. The only other outside party privy to your information, limited only to name and address, is the ultimate recipient of any funds contributed by you via the donor choice program in order to allow the recipient agency to thank you for your gift. We ask if we may publish your name when you make a contribution.

Our privacy promise extends online to our Internet website. Online donations and event registration information are transmitted via a secure server using the latest encryption technology. Some online forms on our Web site are created with third party software through a contract with Formsite.com, a trusted form builder Web site that deploys the lastest in encryption technology.

If you choose to send us e-mail, we may retain the contents of your e-mail message, our reply, and your e-mail address as part of our ongoing customer service efforts. We reserve the right to contact you after you have contacted us and may send future e-mail and/or surveys to you about United Way. You may notify us via e-mail if you wish to discontinue electronic communication.
