No data transmitted over the Internet can be 100 percent secure. Therefore, you provide us with this data at your own risk.
Users may submit grant applications electronically through our grantee portal, which is built on Amazon cloud and Salesforce architecture. We rely upon the Salesforce privacy statement. We make every effort to keep confidential the information you submit to us. Our staff members are required to protect the confidentiality of information submitted to us, and Salesforce further protects the security of the servers on which the information is stored.
