Privacy

The Board of Directors of I.Can Foundation (ICF) has adopted this policy to ensure that our organization complies with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).

This privacy policy pertains to I.Can Foundation's database that it maintains for the following reasons:

  1. mailing of ICF communications, such as our national newsletter,
  2. mailing of ICF fundraising letters or reports, and
  3. reporting of statistics for the Annual Report or other purposes (only numbers are used, no names are associated with the statistics)

Our database is housed at I.Can Foundation's, offices in Ontario and on one other select, secure computer whose operator is engaged in maintaining our database, soliciting contributions and assistance from volunteers, as well as receiving donations. The information in a person's file consists of:

  • Name
  • Mailing address
  • Telephone number
  • Fax number (optional)
  • Email address (optional)
  • Status within the organization (e.g. volunteer, donor, etc.) and program you are part of or have indicated you want to support

ICF affirms that

  • anyone who wishes to have their personal information removed from all or any part of the database may do so by contacting us according to the details provided below.
  • I.Can Foundation does NOT trade, sell or give away information contained in our database.
