website security. Specific
information that is submitted to us
is used only to fulfill the specific
purpose of the form submitted
(volunteering, donations, etc.).
How is the Information Protected?
All information submitted by a customer via the Internet is stored on a server, which
requires proper-authentication for access. The server is housed in a secure environment that
employs a variety of techniques to protect your information. We also use anti-virus protection
software to guard against outside attacks on our networks. All employees that we hire have to
sign a confidentiality agreement that forbids them from disclosing any information to which the
employee has access, to other individuals or entities. We also have back up servers and power
supplies to guard against power outages and other natural occurrences that could pose a threat
to the integrity of your personal information. When an employee is no longer

we change access codes that were used to access any information.
Any information submitted by a customer by other means such as the mail, or by facsimile, is
stored in a secure area and access to this information is limited to only those employees who
need the information in order to do their job effectively.
Who Has Access to my Information?
We do not lease, license, sell or share any of this information with anyone or any other
company. Our technical support personnel may have access to your information in order
to conduct routine checks on the integrity of our system and in order to perform necessary
maintenance work. The only time someone other than a BBBS-Sac, employee will ever see or be
privy to your personal information is in the case of a judicial request (such as a subpoena).
