Information we may collect

The GLJF Websiite does not automatically obtain any individually identifiable information, such as e-mail addresses, from visitors.

The only personal information We will collect is the information you provide when you contact Us or make a pledge or a donation. When you do, you will be asked to provide your name, postal address, e-mail address, other contact information, and, for donations, credit card information.

How we use this information

When you provide Us with your personal information, you are authorizing Us to use that information in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy. We will use the information you provide to Us to communicate with you regarding any requests for information you may submit. We may use it for confirmation of donations and/or pledges. We will never sell, rent, trade, or otherwise share any personal information you may provide with any other organizations, except when required to do so as a result of a court order. We will not disseminate to third parties any personal information you provide to Us, except for your donation information, which is processed by an organization with which We have contracted to provide this service. We may use the information obtained from your computer's connection to our site to evaluate—anonymously and in the aggregate—statistics about usage of Our Web site as well as to analyze the design and functioning of Our site in order to make site improvements.
