Washington Trust for
Historic Preservation Privacy Policy
The Washington Trust for
Historic Preservation wants to provide a rewarding experience to our
website visitors. Part of achieving that goal involves gathering
information that helps ensure our site meets your needs. We respect your
privacy, and this privacy statement provides important information about
how we gather and protect the personal information of our website
visitors.
Personal Information
You are not required to give us personal information when you visit
our website. We may collect personally identifiable information (name,
email address, physical address, and other unique identifiers) only if
you specifically and knowingly provide it. If we collect personally
identifying information, we will use it only for such purposes as
described at the point of collection.
Routine Information
As with most websites, we gather routine statistical information as
visitors browse through our site. We use these statistics to make our
site more useful to visitors and to improve the services we offer. We
may share aggregate information—which does not contain personal
information—with other organizations.
Credit Cards
Visitors may pay membership fees or make donations safely via our
online contribution service provided by the
National Trust
for Historic Preservation. In addition, visitors
may register for events via our online ticket company,
Brown Paper
Tickets. The security of your financial
information (credit card type, number, and expiration date) are a
primary concern of the Washington Trust. The credit card services on
the Washington Trust’s website are provided via a link to secure sites
that protect the security of your information during transmission by
using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption. Through these websites,
credit card information is collected confidentially and securely and is
used only for your intended purpose.
Children
The Washington Trust for Historic Preservation will not knowingly
collect personally identifiable information from children under the age
of 13 without first gaining consent from a parent or guardian. If your
child sends us an e-mail request for information (such as information
for a school project), we will respond using the e-mail provided, but we
will not use it for future communications without the consent of the
parent or guardian.
Links to other
websites
As a service to our visitors, our website contains links to many
other sites. Linked sites are not under the control of the Washington
Trust, and we are not responsible for their privacy practices or
contents. A link to another site does not denote an affiliation with
the website or an endorsement of its viewpoint or mission.
Updates to our
Privacy Policy
The Washington Trust for Historic Preservation occasionally revises
its privacy policy to remain consistent with changes in our information
gathering practices. We will update this statement accordingly, and we
encourage you to periodically review this page for the latest
information on our privacy practice.

practices of our website, please contact Cathy Wickwire at 206-624-9449
