C4 Conflict of Interest Statement

The California Colorectal Cancer Coalition (C4) is a statewide non-profit 501(c)(3) (Federal Tax ID: 95-3102332) organization established to increase colorectal cancer screening rates, in an effort to decrease mortality rates associated with the disease.  The C4 mission is to save lives and reduce suffering from colorectal cancer in all Californians.

C4 receives its funding from a combination of grants and individual contributions. Our grants come from both corporate and non-corporate sources.

C4 has developed the following policy to guide and more clearly define our relationship with supporters:

Funding from corporations for projects and educational programs are charitable donations or unrestricted educational grants. While we welcome input from our corporate partners, C4 has ultimate authority over program development, content and speaker selection.

C4 projects and programs will publicly disclose funding sources. Speakers representing C4 will clearly disclose funding sources.

All speakers at C4 events will be required to disclose their relationship with the corporate partner.

C4 does not endorse any medical product, treatment protocol or service or provide medical advice to patients.

C4 does not sell advertising on our website. However, corporate and individual donors may be thanked for their support of a program.

C4 will present information of interest to the patient community. Every effort will be made to ensure that information is presented accurately and completely.

Every effort will be made to ensure that information presented in educational materials and at programs will be presented without bias.

Any corporate partner wishing to reference C4 or any C4 project in any public relations, marketing or promotional materials or activities, must first seek the prior review and written approval of C4.

C4 reserves the right to approve the participation of third parties that may be recommended for involvement in any program, project or event.

C4 does not enter into exclusive partnerships. C4 does not sell or share its mailing list.

All materials and programs developed by C4 are the property of C4, and as such, cannot be changed, modified or duplicated without prior written permission from C4.
