This site collects as little as possible. The only information the California Elder Abuse Prevention Foundation asks for is what you type into the contact form.
What the contact form collects
- Your name
- Your email address
- Your organization, if you choose to give one — this field is optional
- Your message
- The date and time the message was sent
Nothing else is requested, and there is no account to create.
How it is used
What you send is used to read and answer your message. That is the whole purpose. Your details are not sold, rented, traded, or shared with anyone for marketing, and they are not added to a mailing list.
Where it is kept
Each submission is saved in this website’s own database, where only people who administer the site can read it, and a copy is emailed to the Foundation so someone sees it promptly. The email travels through the web host’s mail service.
The web host also keeps routine server logs, which may include the IP address of visitors, for security and troubleshooting. Those logs are the host’s standard operation, not something this site adds.
Tracking, cookies and analytics
No advertising trackers, retargeting pixels, or third-party marketing scripts run on this site. Analytics is not currently configured, so no visit statistics are collected. If that changes, this page will be updated to say what is measured and by whom.
Browsing the public pages sets no tracking cookies. WordPress sets a session cookie only for someone logging in to administer the site.
Asking for your message to be deleted
Write and ask, and the stored copy of your message will be deleted. Sending that request through the contact page is the simplest route; mention the name and email address you used originally so the right message can be found.
Changes to this policy
If the way this site handles information changes, this page changes with it, and the date below is updated.
