McMaster University is committed to protecting the privacy of the personal information of its alumni and other stakeholders. We value the trust of those we deal with, and of the public.

All McMaster graduates are members of the McMaster Alumni Association (MAA). On graduation, the information provided on your Graduation Information Form is transferred to the Alumni Association so that we can send you the alumni magazine (free of charge) and other forms of communication, including information about alumni events, activities, services and benefits; and offer you opportunities to support the University.

During the course of our various activities, we gather and use personal information. Your personal information is treated in accordance with our privacy policy and applicable legislation. Your information is kept in confidence and safeguards are in place to ensure that information is not disclosed or shared more widely than is necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was gathered. We also take measures to ensure the integrity of this information is maintained and to prevent it from being lost or destroyed.

For further information on privacy, or if you would like to opt out of receiving information from the University's third-party affinity partners about services and benefits available to you as a McMaster graduate, and have your information remain solely with the University, or your personal information cease to be used/disclosed for fundraising purposes, please print out this preferences form and mail it back to us or call us at 1-888-217-6003.
