These official partners may use your information to communicate with you about:

By registering for or participating in the Day of Gratitude event, you acknowledge and agree that your information may be shared with official partners for these communication purposes.

We take reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your personal information.
Sensitive data (such as payment information) is transmitted using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption.
Access to personal data is limited to authorized personnel and service providers.
While we work diligently to protect your data, no system can guarantee absolute security. We encourage users to exercise care when sharing information online.
