Your Privacy

We are committed to respecting your privacy and recognizing your need for appropriate protection and management of your personal information (referred to as "personally identifiable information" or "PII" for short), such as your name, address, telephone number, email address, and interests, that you share with us. The purpose of this Policy is to let you know what personally identifiable information we may collect from you when you visit our Site, how we use such information, and the choices you have regarding the use of, and your ability to review and correct, your personally identifiable information.

 

How We Collect Your Information

You can visit many of our web pages without telling us who you are or revealing any personally identifiable information about yourself. When you visit our Site, we log general data, such as your Internet Protocol (IP) address, the name of the web page from which you entered our Site, which pages you visit on our Site, the actions you take during your visit to a particular page (for example, any links or banners on which you click), and how much time you spend on each page. Your IP address is not linked to your personally identifiable information, and you will remain anonymous unless you voluntarily tell us who you are.

If you choose to register with us or use certain features and functions of our Site, we ask you to provide certain personally identifiable information. Whether or not you elect to provide personally identifiable information is completely your own choice. However, if you choose not to provide the information requested, you may be unable to access certain services and content on our Site.

 

How We Use Your Information

The non-personally identifiable information we collect is used to monitor use of and improve our Site as well as for internal analysis. In particular, IP addresses are used to diagnose problems with the server on which this information is stored, analyze trends and statistics, administer our Site, track visitors’ movement, gather information to improve visitors’ online experience, and to facilitate their visit within the Site.

We may use your personally identifiable information for our own business and administrative purposes, such as responding to your questions or comments, identifying areas of user interest, and coordinating volunteer opportunities.

In connection with providing these services, we may share your personally identifiable information with these third parties. In addition, these third parties may collect certain personally identifiable information such as your name, address, telephone number, email address, interests and, if you elect to use certain services, like making an online gift or purchasing Global Trust Partners merchandise, your credit or debit card information. Third parties retained by us to collect this information have implemented measures to collect this information and to ensure that your information is kept in a secure manner. Although we endeavor to select only reputable companies that share our commitment to user privacy, we are in no way responsible for the actions or policies of these third parties. In the unlikely event of a request for personally identifiable information from a court or law enforcement agency, we will comply with all lawful requests.

Global Trust Partners only shares your personally identifiable information with organizations that work on Global Trust Partners’s behalf. For instance, we may disclose your name and address to affiliated or partner organizations in other countries.

Global Trust Partners will not rent or sell your personally identifiable information.
