Any of the information that we collect from you may be used in one of the following ways:

How we protect your information


NYPIRG will not sell or give away any personal information that you provide (such as your name or contact information), nor will it make available your information to any outside organization without your express consent.

NYPIRG will not sell, share or trade our donors' names or personal information with any other entity, nor send mailings to our donors on behalf of other organizations.

We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information when you submit your personal information.

We offer the use of a secure server.

After a transaction, your private information (credit cards, social security numbers, financials, etc.) will not be stored on our servers.
