Your information collected through the site/app may be stored and processed in other facilities than ours.

How do we protect your information?

We are concerned with protecting your privacy and data, but we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information that you transmit to us or guarantee that your information gathered through the site/app may not be accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed by breach of any of our safeguards. Specifically, we utilize Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software to safeguard your personal information, which is the industry standard and among the best software available today for secure commerce transactions. It encrypts all of your personal information, including credit card number, name, and address, so that it cannot be read over the internet. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have any questions about security on our site/app, you can contact us at www.catchamax.org.

In the event that personal information is compromised as a breach of security, we will comply with applicable law in regard to notifying site/app users.

If you are under 13 years of age, then please do not use or access our site/app at any time or in any manner. In the event we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under age 13 and without verifiable parental consent, we will delete that information as quickly as possible.
