What Personally Identifiable Information is Collected
Individuals and organizations that sign up to receive FOA e-communications voluntarily provide FOA with contact information (such as name and e-mail address). We may use this information for specific, limited purposes. You may always "opt out," either now or at any time in the future, if you do not wish to receive our messages.
If individuals and organizations make donations to FOA or provide personal information to FOA via the mail, phone or other off-line methods, information collected will include that required to process membership or donor transactions, yet is normally limited to name, phone, email, mailing address, and payment information.
If individuals and organizations purchase tickets to FOA events and performances, we will collect the information required to process payment and/or fulfill these purchases. This could include address information, email, phone, name, guests’ names, and guest dining preferences.
From time to time, FOA may also ask users to provide other optional information. If a user chooses to provide such information, the user is giving FOA the permission to use and store this information consistent with this privacy policy.
