MCCA Website Privacy Policy
Effective date: September 24, 2026
Montgomery County Cancer Association (“MCCA,” “we,” “us, ” or “our”) respects your privacy. This policy explains how we collect, use, and share personal information through mccaweb.com and related website communications.
Information we collect
We collect information you choose to provide when you contact us, make a donation, register for an event, volunteer, or inquire about assistance. This may include your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, donation or registration details, and the contents of your messages.
Our website and its service providers may also collect technical information such as your IP address, browser and device type, pages visited, and interactions with the website.
How we use information
We use information to respond to inquiries, process donations and send acknowledgments, manage events and volunteer activities, administer assistance requests, maintain records, protect the website, and meet applicable legal and accounting obligations. If you subscribe to updates, we use your contact details to send news about MCCA, fundraising, and upcoming events.
Donations and payments
Online payments are handled by the payment provider available at checkout. That provider processes payment information under its own privacy policy. MCCA receives information needed to record and acknowledge the transaction, such as your contact details, donation amount, and payment status.
Assistance inquiries and sensitive information
Please do not include medical records, Social Security numbers, or other sensitive documents in general website contact forms. Contact MCCA for instructions on submitting an assistance application and required documentation. Information provided for assistance is used to evaluate eligibility, administer support, and maintain necessary program records. Access is limited to authorized people and service providers who need it for those purposes, or as required by law.
When information is shared
We share information with service providers that help operate our website, process payments, manage registrations, store records, or deliver communications. Authorized MCCA representatives may access information as needed to carry out their responsibilities. We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect rights or safety, or at your direction.
Wix and cookies
Our website is hosted on Wix. Wix and other providers may process information in the United States and other countries where they operate. You can learn about Wix’s practices at https://www.wix.com/about/privacy.
Cookies and similar technologies help the website operate, maintain security, and remember preferences. You can manage cookies through your browser settings and, where available, the website’s cookie preferences. Disabling some cookies may affect website features.
Your choices
You may unsubscribe from promotional emails using the unsubscribe link or by contacting us. We may still send communications about your donations, registrations, or requests. You may also contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information. We may need to verify your identity and retain certain records for legal, accounting, or program administration purposes. We will address requests as required by applicable law.
Retention and security
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described in this policy, including applicable recordkeeping obligations. We use reasonable safeguards to protect information, but no online system or transmission is completely secure.
Children and external websites
Our website is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the website, contact us so we can review and address it. Links to other organizations, social media, or external services are subject to those providers’ own privacy policies.
Policy updates and contact
We may update this policy as our practices change. The updated policy and effective date will appear on this page.
