The following explains our practices, including your choices, regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of certain information, including your personal information, when you access The Stream:

Security

The Stream is entirely supported by gifts from donors. By your generosity, you are joining us to equip people to think clearly about the political, economic, and moral issues of our day. We appreciate your online donations and your confidence in our commitment to protect your privacy as detailed in this Privacy Policy.

We have implemented reasonable physical, managerial and electronic procedures to secure the data we collect about you (“Your Information”). We utilize secure servers (https) for all financial transaction information. We comply with and meet all PCI (Payment Card Industry) Standards. The efforts detailed below are made to maintain data privacy and accuracy, to prevent unauthorized access and to guarantee the proper use of information. The Stream does not store credit card numbers. Unfortunately, no measures can be guaranteed to provide 100% security. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information.
