PRIVACY OF DATA
JFHNJ does not sell or trade our mailing, e-mail or donor lists with external organizations. We will, on occasion, fulfill mailing and e-mail requests on behalf of our partner agencies or other Jewish organizations in the Heart of NJ area.

All requests are reviewed individually by JFHNJ. In no case is any personal information exchanged directly with staff members of other organizations. JFHNJ will either contact you directly or via a contractor that has agreed not to disclose your information to others. Personal information such as address, e‑mail address, demographics, giving levels and histories are never divulged to our partner agencies or other Jewish organizations during this process.
COLLECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Through your involvement with JFHNJ, you may be asked to fill out or update information such as your name, address, e-mail address, telephone and cell phone numbers, fax number, credit card information or details about your Jewish community interests.
