Health Outreach is committed to protecting and securing the privacy and confidentiality of personal information of its donors and supporters.
Health Outreach is bound by new privacy requirements as a result of amendments to the federal legislation called the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). In particular, Health Outreach must adhere to the Privacy Principles in relation to collecting, using, disclosing, securing and allowing access to your personal information. Our privacy practices are designed to achieve this.

If you choose not to provide us with your contact details when you send a gift to Health Outreach, we cannot send you an official tax-deductible receipt and letter of thanks.
Health Outreach usually collects personal information directly from you, when you provide it on a donation form when making a gift to Health Outreach.
Your personal information may be used to process any donations you may send to us and to send you information about Health Outreach including newsletters, updates and information.
Disclosing your Information: Health Outreach does not rent or sell personal information to any other organization.
