Information the Hunger network Collects:

The Hunger Network respects your privacy as an online guest, and the Hunger Network will not collect any Personal Information, as is hereinafter defined, about you while you are here except as set forth in this Privacy Policy.

If you contact the Hunger Network, a record may be kept of that session or correspondence, including a record of your e-mail address.

You can “opt out” of receiving these periodic updates or newsletters at any time by contacting help@hungernetwork.org
• Process any online donations you make to the Hunger Network
