Girls Learn International Privacy and Security

Girls Learn International and all of our partners value and respect all individuals and organizations seeking to donate time, money, or resources to groups in need. We understand that you may be concerned about privacy issues that surround the use of the Internet.

We believe that you should have control over who receives your personal information, whether it concerns where you live, what your interests are, or how you choose to conduct transactions. We're focused on only one thing: helping you help others in a safe and secure environment.

Therefore, we do not disclose, share, sell, or trade information about your individual visits to Girls Learn International or the information that you may give us such as your name, address, e-mail address or telephone number, to any outside companies. We will release personal information about you, if necessary, in order to comply with valid legal process such as a search warrant, subpoena or court order.

Other Web sites that you may link to from our site, including our partners' Web sites, have their own privacy policies. Girls Learn International is not responsible for the privacy practices of other Web sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of Web sites before providing them with any of your personal information.

How Girls Learn International Uses Information About You
When you make donations or request additional information, we may specifically ask for information about you -- such as name, home or Internet address, and billing information -- in order to provide that service or information to you. This information will be used solely for the purposes of completing your donation or gathering the information you are seeking.

The information which Girls Learn International automatically gathers, such as the numbers and frequency of visitors to our site and its areas, is used only in the aggregate -- very much like television ratings that tell the networks how many people tuned in to a program. This collective data helps us determine how much our visitors use parts of the site, so that we can improve our site to assure that it is as appealing as we can make it for as many of you as possible. We also may provide aggregated statistical "ratings" information, never information about you personally, to our Girls Learn International partners about how our visitors, collectively, use Girls Learn International. We do this so they too can understand how often people use their areas and our site in order for them to provide you with the best possible experience.

Girls Learn International Security
Girls Learn International takes every precaution to protect our users' information. When users submit sensitive information via the Web site, your information is protected both online and offline.

When our registration/order form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number and/or social security number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the industry. Girls Learn International uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to keep your personal information as secure as possible. Girls Learn International helps to protect your information by working with partners that provide a secure and safe environment for credit card donations.
