Who we share your data with
The National Buffalo Foundation does not rent, sell or exchange information about our customers, and all information provided to us remains absolutely confidential, except that:
We may share information with trusted partners who need to access your customer information in order to provide operational or other support services to us. These companies are not authorized to use any information we share with them for any other purpose.
We gather only customer information that is needed to administer the foundation, provide superior service and communicate with you offers on products and services that we believe will be of interest to you.
We may periodically send promotional emails about new projects, special offers, service announcements, and administrative messages using the email address, which you have provided.
We limit access to your personal information to those employees who need it to carry out their business functions.

We may be required by law to disclose such information in response to subpoenas, court orders, or requests from law-enforcement officials.
