This website is owned and operated by IGF India. We recognize that visitors to our site may be concerned about the information they provide to us and how we treat that information. This Privacy Policy addresses those concerns. IGF and/or its associated NPOs are committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected.

Personal Information

IGF India and/or its associated NPOs use their best efforts to respect the privacy of their online visitors. Our website does not collect any identifiable personal information from individuals unless they provide it to us voluntarily and knowingly. This means we do not require you to register or provide your information to us to only view our website. IGF India and/or its associated NPOs only gather data such as names, addresses, zip/postal codes, e-mail addresses, etc., when voluntarily submitted by a visitor. For example, we ask for personal details on our online donation pages and use this information to acknowledge receipt of your donation and for donor profile information for tax purposes by email or phone as per our Donor Care policy.

IGF India and/or associated NPOs do not sell or trade such information collected to third parties. We will not share personally identifiable information with third parties unless authorized by the person submitting the information or required by law.

Credit Card Information Security

IGF India and/or its associated NPOs use industry-standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption to protect the security of your transaction(s) and the confidentiality of your personal information. This makes it extremely difficult for anyone else to intercept the credit card information you send to us.

Credit card information is not sold or traded to third parties. We will not share credit card information with third parties unless required by law.

If you still have concerns about the security of your credit card information, contributions may also be made by sending personal cheques or money orders to:

Security

We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. In order to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, we have put in place suitable physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

Donations

We request information from website visitors on our donation form. A visitor must provide contact information (such as name, e-mail, and mailing address) and payment information (such as credit card number and expiration date). This information is used for billing purposes and for sending receipt(s) of the donation(s). If we have trouble processing a donation, the information is used by us to contact the website visitor. If the visitor has permitted the information's release, the visitor's name and contact information may be shared with carefully selected NPOs and charities we feel our donors would want to know about. Where requested, we will provide information on larger donations to appropriate charities and donors for tax purposes. Financial and credit card information is never released.

Cookies

Visitors should be aware that non-personal information and data may be automatically collected by IGF's website through the use of cookies. Cookies are small text files a website can use to recognize repeat visitors, facilitate the visitor's ongoing access to and use of the site, and allow a site to track usage behaviour and compile aggregate data that will allow content improvements. Cookies are not programs that come onto a visitor's system and damage files. Generally, cookies work by assigning a unique number to the visitor that has no meaning outside the assigned site. If a visitor does not want information collected through the use of cookies, there is a simple procedure in most browsers that allows the visitor to deny or accept the cookie feature. IGFs and/or associated NPOs use cookie technology only to obtain non-personal information from their online visitors in order to improve visitors' online experience and facilitate their visit to our site.

External Links

This website may contain links to other sites. Unless we expressly state otherwise, IGF makes no representations whatsoever concerning the content of those sites. The fact that IGF India has provided a link to a site is not an endorsement, authorization, sponsorship, or affiliation concerning such a site, its owners, or its providers. There are risks associated with using any information, software, or products found on the Internet, and IGF India cautions you to make sure that you understand these risks before retrieving, using, relying upon, or purchasing anything via the Internet. In addition, we encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site to read the privacy statements of every website that collects personally identifiable information. These other sites may collect or solicit personal data or send their cookies to your computer. Please be aware that IGF India is not responsible for the privacy practices of other websites. Please check the privacy statements of these other websites for more information about their policies on the collection and use of personal information.

Notification of Changes

If IGF India makes any changes to or changes its privacy policy entirely, these changes to this privacy statement will be updated on the website so our visitors are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. We will use information under the privacy policy under which the information was collected. If, however, we are going to use visitors' personally identifiable information in a manner significantly different from that stated at the time of collection, we will notify visitors via e-mail and won't disclose this information unless express information is granted. However, if visitors have opted out of all communication with the site or deleted/deactivated their account, they will not be contacted, nor will their personal information be used in this new manner.

Sharing

Legal Disclaimer: Though we make a good-faith effort to preserve visitor privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law, wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order, or a legal process served on our website.

Links

This website may contain links to other websites of interest. Please be aware that once you have used these links to leave our website, you should note that we do not have any control over and are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of such other websites. We encourage our visitors to be aware that when they leave our site, they are required to read the privacy statements of every website they visit. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this website.

Interactive Features

From time to time, our site requests information from visitors via interactive features, such as surveys or quizzes. Participation in these features is completely voluntary, and the visitor therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information. The requested information typically includes contact information (such as name and e-mail) and information on the visitor's interests. Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site and providing pertinent information to participants. Visitors' personally identifiable information is not shared with third parties.

Referrals

If a visitor elects to use our referral service to inform a friend about our site, we ask them for the friend's name and email address. IGF India will automatically send the friend a one-time email with an introduction to IGF India and an invitation to visit the site. The one-time email will include the name of the person making the referral. IGF India stores this information for the sole purpose of sending this one-time email and tracking the success of our referral program. The friend may contact IGF India at [email protected] to request the removal of this information from our database.
