Terms of Use

Using this website

The Chicago Area Project (CAP) website provides information about CAP, community affiliates, programs and opportunities to get involved. These terms describe use of the public website. Program participation, employment, volunteering and donations may involve separate requirements or agreements.

Community and program information

Programs, contacts, funding, eligibility and availability can change. Confirm current details directly with CAP or the listed organization before making arrangements. Sending an inquiry does not enroll you in a program, reserve a place or establish eligibility for services or funding.

Community stories and reported outcomes describe specific activities and reporting periods; they do not promise the same result for every participant. Website resources provide general information and do not replace professional advice appropriate to your circumstances.

Responsible use

Use the website lawfully and respectfully. Do not submit fraudulent or abusive messages, send spam, upload malicious material, attempt unauthorized access or interfere with the website’s operation. Share only information you are authorized to provide, and avoid confidential information about other people in general inquiries.

Content and permissions

Website text, photographs, graphics and logos may belong to CAP or their respective owners. You may link to public pages and use material as permitted by applicable law. For republication, commercial use, use of the CAP logo or permission to reproduce photographs, contact CAP. A public photograph does not grant permission to imply that a person or organization endorses your work.

External links and donations

Links to affiliates, community boards and other services are provided to help you find information. CAP does not operate every linked service. Their content, availability, privacy notices and terms may differ from this website’s.

Online donations are processed through PayPal. Review the amount and payment details before completing a donation. Contact CAP about a donation receipt, an error or a refund request; this page does not establish a separate refund policy.

Availability and corrections

The website may be unavailable or contain outdated information or errors. CAP may update website content and these terms as information changes. If you find an error or a broken link, contact CAP with the page address and a description of the issue. These terms do not limit rights that cannot be limited under applicable law.

Questions about these terms

Contact CAP for website permissions or questions about these terms. For information about submitted data or help accessing content, see our Privacy Policy and Accessibility Statement.
