Privacy Policy
We take privacy, security, and complying with data protection and privacy laws seriously. We strive for transparency about how we collect, use, share, process, and protect your personal information when you use our website.
Please review this information carefully.
Donor privacy
Cure JM Foundation fully respects your privacy and appreciates your trust. We will not sell, trade or rent your personal information to any third party without your permission.
If you make a donation, we may send you occasional updates via email or mail. If you prefer not to receive these updates, please email us at info@curejm.org . We will remove your name from the list. If you name an “honoree” for your donation, we will do our best to notify this person that you made a donation in their honor. If you prefer that we do not notify the honoree, please let us know at info@curejm.org .
Information Collection
For each visitor to our Web site, our Web server does not automatically recognize information regarding the domain or email address. We are only able to see aggregate information regarding the pages which are accessed. This information is used to improve the content of our Web site.
We collect the email addresses of those who communicate with us via email, as well as information volunteered by the customer, such as survey information, social media campaigns, site registrations, and specifically, information provided on the patient registry and Team JM registry. This information allows us to keep registrants and correspondents apprised of the latest Cure JM news via email, text, paper mail or phone. If you prefer not to receive these updates, please email us at info@curejm.org.
The patient registry also allows us to build a database of juvenile myositis patients. This information will be used as part of a demographic survey to determine if there are clusters of children affected by JM in the same geographic area. It will also allow us to determine the average age of disease onset, the most common initial symptoms as well as the percentage of children with JM by gender. The information you provide will be used exclusively for research, and will not be shared with any other organization or business not connected with this research.
Use of Cookies and Remarketing
This website uses Facebook remarketing, which tracks the effectiveness of ads shown on Facebook that direct to our website, or third-party sites (eg. CrowdRise, Event Bright, etc.). Remarketing is done through the use of cookies, which allow websites to recognize you and keep track of your preferences.
Both the use of cookies and remarketing gives us a better idea of how effective our Facebook informational advertising is to you, to make sure it is timely, relevant and helpful for you.
Data collected will be used in accordance with our own privacy policy, as well as Facebook privacy policies.

It may be possible for hackers or other third parties not under the control of Cure JM Foundation to intercept or access transmissions or private communications unlawfully.
