Woodland Park Zoo recognizes the importance of protecting the privacy of the individuals and organizations maintained in our database. We adhere to all legislative requirements with respect to protecting privacy and firmly abide by the national Donor Bill of Rights.

Personal Information gathered by our organization is kept in confidence. All employees who work with the database are required to sign a confidentiality statement upholding the security of the information we have on our constituents. Safeguards are in place to ensure that the information is not disclosed or shared more widely than is necessary. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy and ensure the appropriate use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we handle. We also take measures to prevent the data’s loss or destruction.

Woodland Park Zoo only collects personally identifying information for specific purposes relating to our initiatives and campaigns. We do occasionally trade names with local non-profit organizations but do so sparingly and for one-time mailings only. All constituents that request to be excluded from these types of mailings are appropriately coded and removed from future endeavors.
