Use of cookies

Donations to the World Food Bank Foundation
IMPORTANT: The World Food Bank Foundation (WFBF) is run independently from the Global Food Exchange and any other entities under the Global Food Exchange Inc umbrella. The World Food Bank Foundation requests information from the User on its donation form. This is done through a separate site in partnership with the SYLO FOUNDATION. Here the User must provide contact information (like name and address) and financial information (like credit card number, expiration date). These sites are not controlled by Global Food Exchange.
Correction and Updating Personal Information
A User may modify personally identifiable information (such as zip code or email address) by logging into his/her account which can be done through the top of the donation section of the WFBF Site. It cannot be done through the GFE Site.
Opting-out of GFE Newsletters and Communications
Users may elect to receive communications such as newsletters and other material from GFE. If they do, they will have the opportunity to stop receiving such communications at any time by logging into their account from the top of the donation section of the GFE Site and editing their contact preferences or by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of the emails.
Notification of Changes
If the Global Food Exchange Inc decides to change its privacy policy, GFE will post those changes to this page, so Users are always aware of what information we collect and how we use it.
