concerned about the information they provide to us, and how we
treat that information. This Privacy Policy addresses those concerns.
This policy may be changed or updated from time to time.
CSS uses its best efforts to respect the privacy
of its online visitors. At our site, we do not collect personally
identifiable information from individuals unless they provide it

names, addresses, zip/postal codes, e-mail addresses, etc., only
when voluntarily submitted by a visitor. For example, personally
identifiable information may be collected in order to make a donation
online or to be placed on our e-mail list for occasional updates
on CSS issues. This information is used by CSS solely for internal
purposes and is not sold to third parties. We will share personally
identifiable information with third parties only when the person
submitting the information authorizes us to share it or we are
required to by law.

that CSS has permission to contact you in the future and solicit
your support for our worthy activities. All credit card transactions will be performed via a Secure Socket Layer (encrypted) server connection.
