RUN does not presently use IP addresses for any reason, but reserves the right to use them in order to help us improve our website. We also may use your non-personal information (including personal information that has been de-identified) for any reason at our sole discretion.
In any case, whether you submit such personal data (including contact information) to us is wholly at your option. If at any time you decide that you no longer wish to receive communications from us, please follow the access procedures described in this policy below.
