Security
City of Hope makes extensive use of technologies and techniques to help protect the integrity of the personal information you provide to us via the internet. Still, you should be aware that electronic communications may not always be secure, in spite of all precautions. If you are concerned about providing sensitive information, you may wish to do so via phone, regular mail or during a personal consultation, rather than electronically.
Outside Links
City of Hope websites may contain links to outside websites that are not owned or controlled by City of Hope. We cannot be responsible for the privacy protections provided by websites outside of a City of Hope website, even if they are linked to a City of Hope website. A link to an outside website, company or organization in no way constitutes an endorsement or approval of that website, information, service or organization, either outright or implied, and City of Hope is not responsible for content on outside websites.
Note to Parents
City of Hope encourages parents to monitor their children's use of the Internet when viewing a City of Hope website.
Use of Artificial Intelligence
City of Hope is committed to providing authoritative, trustworthy and reliably accurate information. Because of concerns about the veracity and sourcing of written content available in today’s generative AI tools, City of Hope’s policy is not to use these tools to develop or craft written content. To a limited extent, we do use generative AI and editing tools with imagery – but only to enhance the overall clarity, quality and accuracy of visual content while maintaining its authenticity.
