We use the information that you present for such purposes as communicating with you, responding to your requests, and improving our site and services. We receive and store any information you enter on our Web site or give us in any other way. You may choose not to offer certain information, but then you might not be able to benefit from our many features. When you donate or register at UnionRescueMission.org, we collect and store the information you provide. This allows you to auto-populate future forms with the information you provide.

Automatic Information: We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, like many Web sites, we use “cookies,” and we obtain certain types of information when your Web browser accesses UnionRescueMission.org. For each end-user to our Web site, our Web server may automatically recognize available IP addresses.  We collect IP addresses of end users for internal tracking purposes only.

Cookies allow you to take full advantage of some of UnionRescueMission.org’s features, and we recommend that you leave them turned on. We use cookies to record past activity in order to provide better service when you return to our site. However, if you feel it is necessary, the Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether.
