We also reserve the right to disclose information we collect about you as required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena, or similar legal process. Or, when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a written government request.

Information We Collect
When any person visits our website, we may collect non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available. This includes things such as your browser type, language preference, type of computer, etc. There may also be times we collect potentially personally-identifiable information like your IP address, such as when filling out a form, or when making a blog comment. These types of data are collected for the purpose of understanding how visitors use our website, to document visitor actions, and to provide support. It is normally only accessible to site administrators and third party services that use this information to perform their services.

Cookies
We also use browser cookies to perform certain functions. A cookie is a small piece of data that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer's hard drive. A cookie cannot read data off your hard drive or read cookie files created by other sites. Cookies do not damage your system. Cookies allow us to recognize you as a user when you return to our website using the same computer and web browser.

For example, we use cookies to allow you to avoid logging in every time you come to our site. We may also be used to assist with referral programs. And some third party services may use cookies to operate as designed. This may include site analytics, or providing relevant promotional offers. Most browser software can be set to reject cookies. However, if you reject our cookies, certain functionality on the website may not work correctly or at all.

Member Information
We may store additional personal data provided by visitors who choose to interact with FAST Missions. For example, if a visitor chooses to create an account and receive email updates, we'll ask for their email address. If they choose to make a purchase or become a support partner, we will ask for information such as name, address, and credit card information. Basic demographic information such as gender, country, or age group, if provided, may be displayed on a user's profile page to foster community member interaction. In each case, FAST collects only the information that is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with us.

Visitors can refuse to supply personal information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain activities on this website.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise when asked to submit data, you should not assume the information you share will not be made visible to other site users. We will strive to protect information that we judge as having a reasonable expectation of privacy, such as a street address, or credit card information, but we reserve the right to make that determination of reasonability.

We never sell personal information to third party companies.

We do not share personal information with third parties services except as required for normal site functions such as email services, payment processing, marketing, site analytics, and member support.
