At My Cancer Club (https://mycancerclub.com), we care deeply about your privacy. This policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit our website, interact with our community, or submit content through forms.

We know that many of our visitors are sharing personal, emotional stories — and we take your trust seriously.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of information:

  • Personal details you provide via forms (e.g., name, email address, submitted stories or messages)

  • Voluntarily submitted content such as guest blog posts or memorials

  • Technical data such as IP address, browser type, and how you use the website (via cookies or analytics)

3. Donations and Financial Transactions

My Cancer Club may accept donations through third-party platforms such as PayPal or similar providers.
When you click a donation link, you will be taken to a secure third-party site. We do not collect or store any payment or financial information on our servers.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of those platforms (e.g., PayPal) before completing a transaction.

  • You ask us to publish a story, blog post, or memorial entry

  • We are legally required to comply with law enforcement

  • Analyze how visitors use the site (via tools like Google Analytics)

  • Improve functionality and performance

You can choose to disable cookies in your browser settings if you prefer.

6. Email Communication

If you submit a form or contact us, we may respond via email. You will only receive emails you’ve directly requested (like submission confirmations or responses).
We will never sign you up for newsletters without consent.

7. Your Rights

You may request to:

  • Access or correct your personal data

  • Have your submitted story removed

8. Protecting Your Data

We use security measures to protect your data and ensure it is not lost, accessed improperly, or disclosed without permission.

However, no method of data transmission over the internet is 100% secure. By using this site, you accept this risk.

These programs may use cookies or similar technologies to track performance or serve relevant ads.
