As a businessperson, you may want to contribute to law enforcement or public safety groups in your community or buy advertising in publications that seem to be sponsored by nonprofit organizations. While you give back to the community that supports your business, be sure to apply the same savvy you use to make your business decisions when you consider your response to a fund-raising appeal.

Whether playing, shopping, studying or just surfing, today's kids are taking advantage of all that the web has to offer. But when it comes to their personal information, who's in charge? The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, enforced by the Federal Trade Commission, requires commercial website operators to get parental consent before collecting any personal information from kids under 13. COPPA allows teachers to act on behalf of a parent during school activities online, but does not require them to do so. That is, the law does not require teachers to make decisions about the collection of their students' personal information. Check to see whether your school district has a policy about disclosing student information.
