Volunteer Boston works to serve all organizations regardless of their religious or political affiliations. We neither promote nor exclude based on affiliation. We are an independent organization that works to be a neutral service in the attempt to keep positive community change unpoliticized. In the same spirit, Volunteer Boston discloses all affiliations of listed organizations and sponsors. Volunteer Boston welcomes and values participation from a diversity of individuals, and therefore does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, sexual orientation, religion, national or ethnic origin, political beliefs, veteran status or disability. It is our intention to make our web site accessible to the visually impaired in the future. Privacy Other than information available on our website, Volunteer Boston does not distribute any information about persons or organizations with whom we interact. Information on organizations, sponsors, and donors is not housed on our servers. Restricting the dissemination of or access to the information contained within for proprietary purposes is contrary to the mission of Volunteer Boston. The purpose of our this policy is to ensure personal privacy and security of all individuals who interact with, contribute to, or otherwise are solicited by our organization, all of whom have not necessarily previously consented to such distribution of contributed or archived information. Security We work in good faith with our web host to secure the content of our site. Compromised pages will immediately close to public access until repairs have been performed. Information on organizations, sponsors, and donors is not housed on our servers. No information shall be summarily distributed to outside parties without prior deliberation nor record. Content Organization Listings A core service of Volunteer Boston is to index all community service opportunities in the metropolitan Boston area. To be listed, an organization must:
Guest Book Our guestbook is intended for the use of website guests to send greetings and comments during their visit. It is our way of meeting those who come to solely view our site. HTML is censored from guestbook entries. Email addresses are not a requirement for signing the book. Signing with email addresses will allow us to correspond with visitors. Again, please see our privacy policy. Funding Banner Ads The purpose of banner ads at Volunteer Boston is to highlight special events for community service organizations. This service provides us with our sole opportunity to recover costs of operations outside of philanthropy. Banner ads are only displayed for organizations listed in our site. The banner display is managed in a manner intended to reduce dominance of any single advertiser. Ads are displayed randomly from a library of active banners. An incremental fee schedule is applied to any advertiser with either multiple banners or increased exposure frequencies. |
