The Pittsburgh Planned Giving Council respects the privacy of its members and other visitors to its website.
Most data PPGC collects are used only to help us better serve our members. It is our general policy to collect and store only personal information that our members and visitors knowingly provide. If our privacy policies change, we will notify all users by e-mail or a special announcement placed on the website.
General Users: PPGC does not collect any personal information from users browsing its website. Only aggregate data -- such as the number of hits per page -- are collected. Aggregate data are only used for internal and marketing purposes and do not provide any personally identifying information.
Members, Conference Registrants, and Other Customers: To gain access to members-only resources and personalization features on the PPGC webpage, members and certain other users are asked to register and provide some limited information. This information is submitted voluntarily. PPGC asks users to provide information like their name, organization name, business phone number, and e-mail. Similar information may be submitted to PPGC through membership applications, conference or webinar registration, or similar orders and registrations. Additionally, for some e-mails sent in HTML format by PPGC to its members through its electronic newsletters, we will collect specific information regarding what the recipient does with that email. For those emails, PPGC will monitor whether a recipient subsequently clicks through to links provided in the message. Other information collected through this tracking feature includes: email address of a user, the date and time of the user's "click," a message number, name of the list from which the message was sent, tracking URL number and destination page. PPGC only uses this information to enhance its products and distribution of those products to its members. This information is not sold or distributed in any other manner.
If you are a group administrator or are registering for a guest, we may store the same information as if the user had provided it to us directly for purposes of administering that membership or event attendance.
Our membership information may be shared with the National Association of Charitable Gift Planners which assists us in maintaining our membership database. Additionally, we utilize MailChimp for newsletter distributions, so your name and email address is shared with them for this purpose.
Is you have concerns about your information, or wish to change or delete it, please contact the chapter administrator by emailing office@ppgc.net.
