6. Volunteer and School Information

Information submitted by individuals seeking to volunteer or by schools and organizations interested in bringing Dads on Duty to their community may be used to evaluate, coordinate, and administer participation in our programs.

7. Children's Privacy

Our website is intended primarily for parents, guardians, adults, schools, organizations, volunteers, donors, and other community members.

We do not knowingly request or collect personal information from children for purposes that are prohibited by applicable law. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us without appropriate authorization, please contact us so that we can review and take appropriate action.

8. Third-Party Websites

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, including payment providers, social media platforms, school websites, or other organizations.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, security, or policies of third-party websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of those websites before providing them with personal information.

9. Data Security

We take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

However, no method of transmitting information over the internet or storing information electronically is completely secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
