Privacy Policy
Our General Policy

Goodwill of Greater Washington (Goodwill) recognizes the importance of protecting information we may collect from visitors to our site. We maintain appropriate security measures to keep information we acquire from visitors to our sites private. Your browser, however, does automatically tell us the type of computer and operating system you are using.

Users can visit the site without revealing any information about themselves. If one chooses to give us personal information via the Internet for the purposes of correspondence, then it is our intent to let you know how we will use such information.

We do keep track of the domains from which people visit us. We analyze this data for trends and statistics. We do not share information web users provide with third parties for commercial purposes.

Goodwill takes precautions to keep the user information disclosed to us secure. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and to ensure the appropriate use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect.


Goodwill’s Use of Your Information

It is the policy of Goodwill to keep the information provided by users of the Site confidential. Goodwill promises that it will not sell your information to anyone else and will only share your information with businesses that host the Site and data entered by users of the Site. Goodwill may send you e-mails inviting you to learn more about Goodwill’s mission and how you can support it and email offers from other corporate partners. By using the Site, you authorize Goodwill to send you periodic e-mails.


Use of Cookies

Certain sections of the Goodwill website use “cookies” to store user information. A cookie is a small string of text that a web site can send to your browser. Cookies help us understand which parts of our web sites are the most popular, where our visitors are going, and how long they spend there. We use cookies to analyze traffic patterns so we can improve the site.

Cookies were originally designed to help a web site distinguish a user’s browser as a previous visitor and thus save and remember any preferences that may have been set while the user was browsing the site. If you are just browsing www.dcgoodwill.org, a cookie identifies only your browser but you do not have to accept the cookie to continue browsing the site. It is possible to set your browser to inform you when a cookie is being placed – then you have the opportunity to decide whether to accept the cookie.


Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act

We do not knowingly collect any information from anyone under 13 years of age. Our site, products and services are all directed to people who are at least 13 years old or older. If you become aware that your child under the age of 13 years old has provided us with personal information without your consent, please contact us.


Links to Other Sites

Our site may provide links to other websites for your convenience and information. These other websites may operate independently from Goodwill. Linked sites may have their own privacy notices or policies, which we strongly suggest you review if you visit any linked websites. To the extent any linked websites you visit are not owned or controlled by Goodwill, we are not responsible for the sites’ content, any use of the sites, or the privacy practices of the sites.
