The following Privacy Policy governs all pages hosted at www.anera.org
and those hosted through our online donation area, as well as personal
information submitted to ANERA via other means.
ANERA PRIVACY POLICY
ANERA respects the privacy of its supporters. We have adopted a
rigorous privacy policy that reflects that respect. Please read
the following policy to understand how your personal information
will be treated. We will do our best to honor any limitations you
may wish to place on the usage of your personal information.
Privacy of Information & Collection of Information
When you are on ANERA's web site and are asked for personal information,
you are sharing that information with ANERA alone, unless stated
otherwise or required by law. ANERA may collect general information
regarding web site visitors, including IP address, browser and domain
information, and may also monitor and track information such as
visitor usage patterns of our web site using standard site tracking
software.
We are aware of and sensitive to the issue of unsolicited email
("spam"); therefore ANERA will never rent, trade or sell
your email address. Please note: From time to time, ANERA
does exchange our postal mailing list with similar humanitarian
organizations. We never rent or sell our list. If you wish not to
have your name exchanged, please let us know in writing. Simply
send us a request via email to enews@anera.org
with your exact name and mailing address.
Personally Identifiable Information
ANERA collects personal information from visitors and other supporters
only when they register to join our organization, make a donation
online or offline, subscribe to our e-newsletter, or otherwise participate
in our online community. Our web server does not automatically recognize
or collect personal information based on your email address; the
personal information we collect is always voluntarily submitted
by you.
Use of Information
ANERA uses the information you submit voluntarily to us to send
you electronic communications such as our e-newsletter, and various
printed publications or mail appeals, and to help administer and
improve our web site. Please note that we use this information for
internal purposes only. If you have subscribed to ANERA's eCommunity,
we will send you approximately one email communication per month.
Update, Correct, or Delete Personal Information
The accuracy of your individual information is important to ANERA.
If you have a question about or change to your personal information
related to a donation, please send an email to enews@anera.org.
Protecting Personal Information
When you give ANERA personal information, we take steps to ensure
that your information is treated securely. ANERA uses industry-standard
encryption technologies when transferring and receiving sensitive
visitor data (e.g., financial information) with our site. All online
donations are processed via a secure server, managed by CharityWeb.
Please view their privacy
policy.
ANERA does not store your credit card information for future use.
ANERA uses commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the security
of any personal information on our systems, and to protect against
the loss, misuse, or alteration of information transmitted to us.
Of course, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed
to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your
personal information, ANERA cannot warrant the security of any information
you transmit to us.
Use of Cookies
ANERA does not use cookies.
Links to Third-Party Sites
The ANERA web site provides links to other third party web sites.
While we make efforts to choose our links carefully, we cannot take
responsibility for the content of linked web sites, or for the privacy
policies of web sites we link to. Since we do not control those
web sites, we encourage you to review the privacy policies on those
web sites prior to any use.
Linking to the ANERA Web site
Generally, Internet web sites may link to ANERA web sites without
seeking the permission of ANERA. However, such links must clearly
identify ANERA as the source of the information displayed and preserve
the integrity of the ANERA web pages without alteration.
Tell-A-Friend
If you elect to use the referral service for informing a friend
about a page on the ANERA web site, you will be asked for the friend's
name and e-mail address. ANERA will automatically send the friend
a one-time e-mail inviting them to visit the site. ANERA uses this
information for the sole purpose of sending this one-time email.
Privacy Policy Changes
ANERA may amend this privacy policy from time to time. We will post
the revised policy on our web site so that you are always aware
of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances
we disclose it. Your continued use of our web site after the date
that such notices are posted will be deemed to be your agreement
to the changed terms.
