Any person accessing, browsing, or otherwise using the K2
Family Foundation ("K2FF") Web site http://www.k2ff.org
("Site") either manually or via an automated device
or program, to the extent permitted hereunder, shall be considered
a "User" under this privacy policy. All Users are
bound by the terms of this privacy policy. K2FF is committed
to protecting the privacy of our Users. This privacy policy
discloses the privacy practices governing the use of information
submitted to K2FF through this Site. Capitalized terms shall
have the meaning designated in this privacy policy.
The Information We Collect
Anonymous Browsing Information
You can browse the Site without revealing personal information
that can be used to identify you. K2FF may collect non-personal
information such as your Internet Protocol ("IP")
address, the name of the domain you used to access the Internet,
the Web site you came from and the site you visit next (see
"How We Use It," below). However, K2FF does not
associate any non-personal information with records containing
any personal information submitted to us, so you remain anonymous
when you browse the Site.
Personal Information
K2FF may collect personal information such as names, company
names, titles, addresses, telephone numbers, fax numbers,
e-mail addresses, and payment information (such as credit
card numbers) from Users. For example, K2FF may collect personal
information submitted through online application and event
registration and donation forms. By submitting personal information
to this Site, the User acknowledges that he or she has read
this privacy policy, understands it, agrees to its terms and
authorizes K2FF to collect, use and disclose personal information
pursuant to the terms of this privacy policy.
Cookies
This Site may use cookies. A cookie is a small file that your
Web browser places on your computer's hard drive. It functions
as an identification card, recording your passwords, purchases
and preferences. Most browsers are initially set to accept
cookies. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive
a cookie, giving you a chance to decide whether or not to
accept it. While K2FF may use cookies to track your visit
to the Site and our servers automatically log the IP address
of your computer, this information does not identify you personally
and you remain anonymous, even if you have previously submitted
personal information to K2FF through the Site or otherwise.
Third parties whose Web sites are accessible through links
on the Site may also use their own cookies when you link to
their site or service. K2FF does not control these third parties'
use of cookies and cannot guarantee that they will uphold
the same privacy standards as K2FF. K2FF expressly disclaims
any and all liability related to the collection, use or disclosure
of information by third parties. You should review the privacy
policies of any third party sites that you visit through a
link from the K2FF Site to understand how they use cookies
and the information they collect through cookies.

under the age of 13. K2FF does not collect personally identifiable
information from any person K2FF actually knows is under the
age of 13.
How We Use It
Anonymous browsing information, including your IP address,
may be used to gather broad demographic information. This
information may be aggregated to measure the number of visits,

performance and to make the Site easier and more convenient
to use.
K2FF uses personal information collected from Users, such

to process User applications for grants or participation in
K2FF programs, to process User donations, to help organize
fund-raising events and to inform Users of new programs and
services.

events or programs, you may not receive the information you
requested, and K2FF may not be able to inform you of new programs,
events, developments, products and services. K2FF may share
non-personal, non-individual information in aggregate form
with third parties.
Notwithstanding other provisions of this privacy policy, we
may disclose personal information in special cases when we
have found it necessary to identify, contact or bring legal
action against someone who may be violating any user agreement
or may be causing injury to or interference with K2FF, its
Users, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities.
K2FF reserves the right to disclose your personal information
as explicitly set forth in this privacy policy or any user
agreement agreed to by you, or as otherwise required by government
or law enforcement officials. K2FF can, and you hereby authorize
us to, disclose any information to law enforcement or other
parties that K2FF in its sole discretion, believes is required
or appropriate in order to comply with the law.
K2FF may assign, sell, license, or otherwise transfer to a
third party, your name, address, e-mail address, and any other
personal information in connection with an assignment, sale,
joint venture, or other transfer or disposition of a portion
or all of the assets or stock of K2FF or its affiliated entities.
