CareNet does not collect any information on our website to directly solicit visitors. However, we do monitor and track traffic to our Site through Google Analytics (see Use of Cookies below), as well as PayPal and Network for Good, to register and process payments for donations to our organization and our eight regional centers – all of which are for internal purposes. In addition, each of the platforms above maintains their own appropriate security measures designed to keep your information private. By visiting our Site you agree to our Privacy Policy. We also reserve the right to change or update this Privacy Policy at any time without notice.

Use of Cookies
Certain sections of the Site use “cookies” to store user information. A cookie is a small string of text that a website can send to your browser. Currently, websites use cookies to enhance the user’s visit; in general, cookies help us understand which parts of our Site are the most popular, where our visitors are going and how long they spend there. We use cookies to evaluate traffic patterns on our Site and, from time to time, to refine our Site and improve the user experience. No personally identifiable information about you is collected during this process. We also track the domains from which people visit and analyze this data for trends, insights and statistics; then we discard it.
If you are concerned about the use of cookies, CareNet suggests that you explore your browser’s options to notify you whenever a cookie is set or to disallow cookies altogether.
