The Finance, Mathematics, and Science Foundation (“FMSF,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains how we may collect, use, disclose, and protect information when you visit our website, become a member, participate in our programs or events, make a donation, or otherwise interact with FMSF. 
 

Information We Collect 
 

We may collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us, including your name, email address, telephone number, mailing address, membership information, event or program registrations, communications with us, and other information you choose to provide. 
 

When you make a membership payment, donation, or other transaction, payment information may be collected and processed by our third-party payment providers. FMSF may receive information about the transaction but does not necessarily receive or store your complete payment-card information.

We may also automatically collect certain technical information when you visit our website, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, referring website, and general website usage information through cookies and similar technologies. 
 

How We Use Your Information 
 

We may use the information we collect to:

• Process memberships, donations, registrations, and other transactions;

• Provide educational programs, resources, events, and member services;

• Communicate with you about FMSF programs, events, opportunities, and organizational updates;

• Respond to questions and requests;

• Maintain and improve our website and services;

• Understand how visitors interact with our website;

• Protect the security and integrity of our organization and website; and

• Comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations. 
   

Virtual and In-Person Programs 
 

FMSF may provide both virtual and in-person educational programs, events, workshops, and other activities. When you register for or participate in these activities, we may collect information reasonably necessary to administer the program, communicate with participants, and provide related services.
 

If a particular program requires additional information or has separate privacy considerations, we may provide additional notices at the time of registration. 
 

Email and Communications
 

If you subscribe to our mailing list, become a member, register for a program, or otherwise request communications from FMSF, we may send you information about our programs, resources, events, and organizational activities.
 

You may unsubscribe from promotional emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link provided in those communications. We may still send necessary administrative or transactional communications related to your membership, registration, donation, or other relationship with FMSF. 
 

Cookies and Website Analytics
 

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, understand website traffic, and improve the visitor experience.
 

Third-party services integrated into our website may also use cookies or similar technologies in accordance with their own privacy policies. Where required by applicable law, visitors may be provided with choices regarding non-essential cookies. 
 

How We Share Information
 

FMSF does not sell your personal information. 
 

We may share information with trusted service providers that help us operate our organization and website, such as website hosting providers, payment processors, email communication services, analytics providers, event-management platforms, and other vendors. 
 

We may also disclose information when required by law, to respond to lawful requests, to protect our rights or the safety of others, or in connection with organizational restructuring or similar circumstances. 
 

Data Security 
 

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures intended to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. 
 

However, no website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
 

Your Privacy Choices

Depending on where you live, applicable law may provide you with certain rights regarding your personal information, which may include the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of certain information.

You may contact FMSF to submit a privacy-related request. We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests.

Our website may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties. FMSF is not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of third-party websites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing personal information.
