Osborn
Educational Foundation respects your privacy and is committed to
protecting the personal information you share with us. This statement
describes how Osborn Educational Foundation collects and uses your
personal information to provide services that you request or when you
choose to provide us with your personal information. Information
Collection Personal
information means any information that may be used to identify an
individual, including, but not limited to, a first and last name, email
address, a home, postal or other physical address, other contact
information, title, occupation, industry, personal interests, and other
information when needed to provide a service or product or carry out a
transaction you have requested. When
you browse our website, you do so anonymously. We do not automatically
collect personal information, including your email address. We do not
log your IP address (the Internet address of your computer) to give us
an idea of which part of our website you visit and how long you spend
there. Osborn
Educational Foundation collects personal information when you make a
donation or when you submit your personal information to Osborn
Educational Foundation for any other reason. However,
we have contracted with a third party (Authroize.net) to process
sensitive credit card information via a secure gateway to their website
in order to process that donation. This
is indicated when exiting the Osborn Educational Foundation website. Notice When
personal information is collected, we will inform you at the point of
collection the purpose for the collection. Osborn Educational Foundation
will not transfer your personal information to third parties without
your consent. In
most cases we will provide you with the opportunity to "opt
in" prior to receiving information regarding our fundraisers. This
means we will require your affirmative action to indicate your consent
before we use your information for purposes other than the purpose for
which it was submitted. At a minimum, we will always give you the
opportunity to "opt out" of receiving such materials. This
means we assume you have given us your consent to collect and use your
information in accordance with this Privacy Statement unless you take
affirmative action to indicate that you do not consent, for instance by
clicking or checking the appropriate option or box at the point of
collection. Cookies
and Other Tracking Technologies A cookie is a
small data file that certain websites write to your computer’s hard
drive when you visit them. The Osborn Educational Foundation does not
use cookies. For
additional information about cookies and other tracking technologies,
including instructions for blocking their use, see http://privacy.getnetwise.org/browsing/tools/. How
We Use Information Collected Osborn
Educational Foundation uses information to fulfill your requests for how
to allocate your donation and to send you a receipt for your donation
that can be used with your taxes. We may also use your information to
send you information on our fundraisers. Information
Sharing and Disclosure Your
personal information is never shared outside Osborn Educational
Foundation without your permission, except under conditions explained
below. Inside OEF, data is stored in controlled servers with limited
access. We
will disclose your personal information if required to do so by law. Data Security Osborn
Educational Foundation safeguards the security of the data you send us
with physical, electronic, and managerial procedures. While we strive to
protect your personal information, we cannot ensure the security of the
information you transmit to us, and so we urge you to take every
precaution to protect your personal data when you are on the Internet.
Change your passwords often, use a combination of letters and numbers,
and make sure you use a secure browser. Children
and Privacy Our
websites do not target and are not intended to attract children under
the age of 13. Osborn Educational Foundation does not knowingly solicit
personal information from children under the age of 13 or send them
requests for personal information. Third
Party Sites Osborn
Educational Foundation's website contains links to other sites. Osborn
Educational Foundation does not share your personal information with
those websites and is not responsible for their privacy practices. We
encourage you to learn about the privacy policies of those companies. Our
website may contain links to websites operated by other companies.
Although we choose our partners carefully, Osborn Educational Foundation
is not responsible for the privacy practices of web sites operated by
third parties that are linked to our site. Once you have left our
website, you should check the applicable privacy statement of the third
party website to determine how they will handle any information they
collect from you. Changes
to this Privacy Statement Osborn
Educational Foundation will amend this privacy statement from time to
time. If we make any substantial changes in the way we use your personal
information we will make that information available by posting a notice
on this site. Questions
