By accessing our website and/or submitting your
personal information to us, you are agreeing that: (1) you will abide by
the practice described in this Policy, and (2) IHRRI may use the
information in accordance with this Policy. Further, if you reside
outside the United States, you understand and agree that your personal
information may be processed in countries (including the United States)
where laws regarding processing of personal information may be less
stringent than the laws in your country.

 

INFORMATION WE COLLECT AND WHY

The
information we may collect includes information you provide to us
directly, as well as information provided by third parties or
automatically through your use of our website. This information enables
us to improve our work, communicate with you about our programs, respond
to your inquiries and provide support, fulfill your requests and
donations, and for other donor service purposes. We also use information
to improve our understanding of your interests and better tailor the
content and information that we may send or display to you, for instance
newsletters or any other information we think may interest you.

Information We Collect Directly From You: Personal
information collected may include your name, postal address, telephone
number(s), email address(s), or other information. We also request that
you provide us with additional personal information, such as credit card
information, on our online donation pages to properly enable donation
transaction processing.

Information We Collect Automatically. We
may automatically collect the following information about your use of
our website through cookies, web beacons, and other technologies: your
domain name; your browser type and operating system; web pages you view;
links you click; your IP address; the length of time and number of
times you visit our site and or use our services; and the referring URL,
or the webpage that led you to our site, and the following: access
time, browser type, device ID, domain name, IP address, page views,
pages visited and referring URL.  We may combine this information with
other information that we have collected about you, including, where
applicable, your user name, name, and other personal information  For

IHRRI’S INFORMATION SECURITY MEASURES

When
you donate to IHRRI online, your credit card information is secured by
an independent security company. Also, your credit card number is used
only for that particular transaction and is not stored. You will see the
“closed” lock symbol in the lower part of your browser screen (often
times it is yellow as well) when you are on our secure donation pages.
You will also notice in your web site(s) address bar that the domain
name starts with an “https” on those donation pages. This means that
information entered on those pages is encrypted for your security. This
actually makes it more secure than using a credit card in physical form
at a store for example. Please be aware that despite our best efforts,
no data security measures can guarantee 100% security. 

If you have any questions regarding the security of your credit card donation online, please email us at info@IHRRI.org for more information.
