Care Beyond the Boulevard Website
Last updated October 1, 2026
Care Beyond the Boulevard, Inc. (CBB, we, us, or our) respects the privacy of the people who visit our website, support our work, volunteer with us, attend our events, or otherwise communicate with us online. This policy explains what information we collect through our website and related online services, how we use and share it, and the choices available to you.
This policy applies to information collected through carebeyondtheboulevard.org and online services that link to this policy. It does not replace CBB’s Notice of Privacy Practices, which governs protected health information under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and other applicable health privacy laws.
Information We Collect
We may collect information in the following ways.
Information You Provide
- Contact information, such as your name, email address, mailing address, and telephone number.
- Donation information, such as the amount and date of a gift, designation, tribute information, communication preferences, and information needed to provide a receipt or acknowledgment.
- Volunteer and event information, such as your interests, availability, professional background or license information, and information you include in a registration or volunteer form.
- Communications you send to us, including questions, requests, feedback, and information submitted through contact forms or email.
- Information you voluntarily provide when sharing a story, photograph, testimonial, or other content. CBB will obtain any additional authorization required before using patient information or a patient’s image.
Donation and Payment Information
Online donations and event payments may be processed by Givebutter or another third-party payment processor. The processor may collect payment card, bank account, billing, and transaction information directly from you. CBB generally does not receive or store complete payment card or bank account numbers. The processor’s collection and use of that information are governed by its own privacy policy and terms.
Information Collected Automatically
When you use our website, the website and service providers supporting it may automatically collect technical information, such as your Internet Protocol address, browser and device type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, date and time of access, and general location derived from your Internet Protocol address. This information may be collected through server logs, cookies, pixels, and similar technologies.
Information From Other Sources
We may receive information from fundraising platforms, event registration services, email and text messaging providers, social media platforms, and other services you use to interact with CBB. The information we receive depends on your settings and the privacy practices of those services.
How We Use Information
CBB may use personal information to:
- Process donations, event registrations, and other transactions; maintain financial records; and issue receipts and acknowledgments.
- Respond to questions and requests and provide information about CBB’s services, programs, events, volunteer opportunities, and fundraising activities.
- Review volunteer inquiries, coordinate volunteer activities, and communicate with volunteers.
- Manage donor relationships, honor communication and recognition preferences, and understand the effectiveness of our fundraising efforts.
- Operate, maintain, secure, and improve our website and online services.
- Detect and prevent fraud, misuse, security incidents, and other harmful activity.
- Meet legal, accounting, audit, grant, insurance, and recordkeeping requirements.
- Carry out another purpose disclosed when information is collected or authorized by you.
Donor Privacy
CBB does not sell, rent, or trade donor names, contact information, donation history, or other personal information for another organization’s marketing purposes.
We may publicly recognize donors in reports, event materials, displays, or other communications. A donor may request anonymity or ask not to be publicly recognized by contacting us. We will honor the request prospectively, subject to disclosures required by law and records needed for accounting, audit, tax, grant, and regulatory purposes.
We may use service providers to process gifts, maintain donor records, send acknowledgments and communications, conduct events, and support our fundraising systems. These providers receive only the information reasonably needed to perform services for CBB and are expected to protect it and use it only for authorized purposes.
How We Share Information
CBB may share information in the following limited circumstances:
- With service providers that support website hosting, security, donations and payments, donor management, email or text communications, data storage, analytics, event registration, accounting, auditing, and similar functions.
- With professional advisers, auditors, insurers, and government agencies when disclosure is reasonably necessary for an authorized purpose or required by a contract, audit, or law. Information provided to funders will be de-identified when practicable unless identifiable information is required and may lawfully be disclosed.
- To comply with a subpoena, court order, law, regulation, or other legal process; to protect the rights, safety, and property of CBB or others; or to investigate suspected fraud, misuse, or unlawful activity.
- As part of a merger, reorganization, transfer of assets, or similar organizational change, subject to appropriate protections.
- With your direction or consent.
We may also use and share information that has been aggregated or de-identified so that it does not reasonably identify an individual.

Patient and Health Information
CBB’s Notice of Privacy Practices explains how we may use and disclose protected health information, your rights regarding that information, and how to contact CBB with a privacy question or complaint. If information collected through the website is protected health information, the Notice of Privacy Practices and applicable health privacy law will govern that information if they provide greater protection than this policy.
Do not submit medical records, diagnoses, medication information, Social Security numbers, or other sensitive health or identity information through a general website form, ordinary email, donation form, or volunteer form. These channels may not be designed for clinical communication. Contact CBB by telephone for instructions on securely providing patient information. The website is not monitored for medical emergencies. Call 911 for an emergency.
Data Security
CBB uses reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information. No website, transmission method, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. If CBB learns of a security incident affecting personal information, we will respond and provide notice as required by applicable law.
Information Retention
We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including providing services, maintaining donor and transaction records, meeting legal and contractual obligations, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, and protecting the organization. Retention periods vary based on the type of information and the reason it was collected.
Your Choices and Requests
You may contact CBB to request that we update or correct your contact information, change communication preferences, record a donor anonymity request, or delete personal information that we are not required to retain. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request. Some information may be retained when required by law or reasonably necessary for financial, tax, audit, grant, security, or recordkeeping purposes.
Children’s Privacy
Our general website is intended for a broad audience and is not designed to collect personal information directly from children under 13 without the involvement of a parent or legal guardian. If we learn that personal information was submitted by a child under 13 through the general website without appropriate permission, we will take reasonable steps to delete it. This section does not limit CBB’s ability to provide healthcare or other authorized services to minors in accordance with applicable law.
Links and Third-Party Services
Our website may link to or display services operated by other organizations. CBB does not control their privacy or security practices. Review the privacy policy of any third-party website or service before providing personal information.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy when our website, services, vendors, or legal obligations change. The current version will be posted on the website with its effective date. Material changes will apply prospectively unless the law permits or requires otherwise.
