Such information may include your name, mailing address, and e-mail address; it may also include a phone number and any other information collected in the forms.
You may opt-out of receiving communications from us by sending an email to us at give@barcs.org with your complete name, address and email address.

To protect the privacy of donors and to secure online transactions, all BARCS giving, eCommerce and event registration pages have been site security confirmed and have been issued Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificates delivering both 256-bit encryption and the True Site trust mark providing third-party website identity validation. An SSL certificate ensures the content provided between a donor’s browser and the BARCS’s web servers are private and secure.
