Linking to a Social Site Account to Register on Our Site
You can easily create your account on our site using the information you have already entered in your favorite social site (such as Facebook or Twitter), and at the same time, link your social account to your Facebook account so that you can use the same User Name/Password combination from your social site to log into this site.
You may already have an account if you interacted with our web site in some way, such as made a donation to another fundraiser, completed a survey, or participated in a team fundraising event.
If the system detects an existing user account with similar information (such as the same email address), a message displays about this along with fields for entering your User Name and Password. You can attempt to enter the typical User Name and Password that you may have created for this account in the past and then click Log In. Or, you can click the link to have your User Name and password (or a reset link) sent to you in an email.
Note: The connection between
accounts is established and provided in a secure manner by an outside
resource named Gigya. This is a social network connection provider
that works behind the scenes to make safe, secure connections
between user accounts on different systems, such as popular
social media web sites like Facebook and web sites like ours
where you are actively involved in social issues and causes.
Note that neither your User Name or Password is stored by Gigya.
A list of the social accounts that you have linked to this account is maintained in your account Profile. You can always view your account Profile. And, at any time, you can break the connection between your accounts.
