Our Privacy Policy

The MADD Orange County web site does not use cookies nor do we attempt to obtain information about any individual that visits our site without their permission.

If you chose to sign up for a mailing list, you will be added to our database for newsletters and other occasional mailings.  We do not sell our mailing lists to outside individuals or organizations. 

If you become a member of MADD, you will receive notifications that go to members of  MADD and an annual reminder to renew your dues.  

On any of the online forms, you must type in your e-mail address.  It does not come to us automatically.

If you use the online credit card option to pay for membership or make a donation, your credit card or checking account information stays with the bank that handles the transaction.  We DO NOT receive any of your personal information.  

We provide a form that can be easily printed if you would like to make a donation or become a member of MADD by sending a check through the U.S. mail.  

We do not list the names of children who participate in our essay contest, our t-shirt design contest or any other youth programs on the website.  Nor do we list the names of people involved in drunk driving crashes. 

The website is on a separate server from our office records so there is no way anyone can access any of our files through the Internet.  

About our Internet transaction logs

Our transactions logs show only the IP address of people who visit our site and which pages are visited. For example, if you visit us via America Online, the only IP address we see is for AOL not your individual screen name. 

We do not collect e-mail addresses or any other personally identifying material via our transaction logs.  In fact, they cannot be determined by our web hosting service. The logs help us gauge interest and activity for our various web site pages as well as help us plan for future improvements.

Our position on junk e-mail (SPAM)

We do not send unsolicited spam mail.  

To mass marketers: DO NOT send us junk mail, e-mail or fax of any kind without our permission! We are doing everything we can to stop the misuse and abuse of the Internet by junk mailers.

We expect and appreciate the same courtesy from others. 

Marketers please note: We send ALL spam to the Federal Trade Commission (uce@ftc.gov) for investigation as well as to the ISP service used.

California Electronic Advertising Law

The State of California has enacted a law effective January 1, 1999 regulating electronic transmissions (e-mail and fax) of advertising messages to residents of the state. 

AB 1676, Chapter 805 (Debra Bowen, D-Marina del Rey) requires senders of unsolicited e-mail advertisements ("spam") and fax messages to provide a toll-free telephone number or e-mail address to be removed and prohibits the sender from sending additional spam if the recipient asks the sender to stop.  Senders may incur significant fines if they refuse to obey the law.  The US Congress is considering similar laws.
