Beginning in 2017, it is GlassRoots’ custom to thank and acknowledge donors publicly on our website and in our annual report unless specifically requested to keep the donor name anonymous. However, GlassRoots also assures donors that their names, contact information and addresses will not be shared with (or sold, rented or leased to) any third party unless we are compelled by law.

Please note, GlassRoots may share account or other information when we believe it is necessary to comply with law or to protect our interests or property. This may include sharing information with other companies, lawyers, credit bureaus, agents or government agencies in connection with issues related to fraud, credit or debt collection.
