Privacy Policy
Our commitment to privacy
Global Disciples Canada knows that you care how information about you is used and shared, and we appreciate you trusting that we will do so carefully and sensibly. We store any personal data given to us as securely as possible, and NEVER sell, rent, give or otherwise provide that personal data (including e-mail address) to anyone outside of our organization.
This Privacy Policy explains our practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used by Global Disciples Canada. It applies to donor information that we collect both online and offline.
What information is collected by Global Disciples Canada?
We collect personal information when you voluntarily submit it to us.
For example, donors provide us with personal information (such as name, address, email address, telephone numbers and/or credit/debit card information). If a donor, or a website visitor, contacts us by email they provide us with their email address, and name. Providing data is required in these contexts in order for us to process your donations, requests, or respond to inquiries.
In addition to the personal information that you submit to us, we may collect personal information about you from reputable third parties, or automatically collect information using the following technologies:
Web Server Logs. Our web servers may collect certain information such as IP address, pages visited, time of visits, and referring website.
Cookies. Cookies are simple text files stored by your web browser that provide a method of distinguishing among donors and visitors to the website. Global Disciples Canada uses cookies to identify your browser as you visit pages on our website or sites in the Global Disciples Canada media network. Cookies also allow Global Disciples Canada to provide more relevant, targeted content as you travel through our site.
Where do we transfer and store information?
Global Disciples Canada is based in Canada, and any information transmitted to us will be stored, accessed, or processed in Canada.
How do we use information?
We collect information primarily to accept donations, complete our charitable projects, and provide you with information concerning our programs, projects, and activities. We also use information for internal purposes and for analytical purposes (to respond to requests for information and to improve our website, donor base, and outreach). We will inform you of other purposes at the time that we collect some forms of information. For example, if you apply for a job with Global Disciples Canada we may collect information in order to process your job application.
With whom do we share information?
We do NOT trade, share, or sell information that you provide to us with other organizations.
We would only share your information, for example, in conjunction with your sponsorship of a certain project, as required by law, with law enforcement, to comply with legal processes, to protect our legal rights, to protect the safety or security of a person, or to protect against fraud, criminal acts, or misconduct. We may also share your information with companies that provide us with services, or with a successor legal entity.
Our commitment to data security
To help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy and ensure the correct use of information, we have in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect. We also use industry accepted tools and techniques such as SSL and two-factor authentication to protect against unauthorized access to our systems. Additionally, all sensitive information is stored in secure repositories both in-house as well as secure cloud-based, AES encrypted web apps.
Your access to data, and your choices
If you would like to access the data that we received from you, or make corrections to it, please contact us at the email or mailing addresses provided at the end of this policy.
If you registered to receive communications from us and later change your mind, please ask that your name and contact information be removed from our distribution list.
