Cancer Support Transformation, Inc. ("CST," "we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting the privacy of everyone who visits our website, uses our services, donates to our organization, or otherwise interacts with us. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

 

Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of information when you visit our website or interact with our programs:

• Contact information you provide, such as your name, email address, phone number, and mailing address (for example, when you fill out a contact form, register for a support group, or sign up for our newsletter)

• Donation information, including payment details processed through our third-party donation platform (Zeffy or Eventbrite). CST does not directly collect or store credit card or banking information — this is handled securely by our payment processor.

• Program participation information, such as details you share when registering for services like the Crowning Star Wig Program, Care Bear Program, or support groups.

• Website usage data, collected automatically through standard analytics tools (such as pages visited, browser type, and general location), which helps us understand how our site is used

• Communications you send to us, including emails, contact form submissions, and social media messages

 

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide the services, programs, and resources you request

• Respond to your inquiries and communicate with you about our programs and events

• Process donations and send tax-deductible donation receipts

• Send newsletters or updates, if you have opted in to receive them

• Improve our website and better understand the needs of the communities we serve

• Comply with legal and reporting obligations as a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization

 

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.

 

Sharing of Information

We may share your information only in the following limited circumstances:

• With trusted service providers who help us operate (such as our donation processor, Zeffy, or email newsletter platform), solely to perform services on our behalf

• If required by law, subpoena, or other legal process

• With your explicit consent (for example, if you agree to have your survivor story or photo featured on our Survivors' Tribute page)

 

Children's Privacy

Our website and services are intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.

 

Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information we collect. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
