How and Why We Obtain Information
Online --
- As with most other Internet sites, our web servers
record the IP address of each visitor to this site, but
not your e-mail address. The IP information is used to
help diagnose problems with our server, to administer
this website more effectively, and to gather broad
demographic information about visitor's domains and
countries of origin.
- Personal information about visitors may also be
obtained from this site through transactional activity
(for example, online donations or online shopping), but
only with your express permission. This information is
used to insure that transactions are accurately
fulfilled, to provide donation receipts, and to provide
enhanced service levels, including rapid transaction
processing for returning donors/shoppers.
- Visitors' contact information may also be used to
send the visitor news about Sempervirens Fund's redwood
preservation projects or programs, and the projects and
programs of (only) selected other environmental
non-profit organizations. Visitors may opt-out of
receiving such information.
How We Protect Your Information (and
how we can't)
- This site uses firewall protection, authentication
procedures, password protection and other security
measures to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of
the information under our control and to maintain the
security of your online session.
- This site uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology,
the leading industry protocol that provides security for
transmitting personal information over the Internet,
keeping your personal information secure. This means that
credit card numbers are encrypted and cannot be
copied.
 
- Transaction processing on this site (for donations,
merchandise, membership, etc.) is performed safely and
securely by our partner Blackbaud, Inc., a subscriber to
the VerisignTM Secure
Site Program. Please review the Blackbaud
Privacy Statement.
- This site provides two ways to opt-out of receiving
communications from us. First, by making it optional to
provide contact information at all, and
second, by offering several ways to modify or delete
personal contact records (see below).
- Sempervirens Fund cannot delete your name from the
data bases of other environmental non-profits with whom
we collaborate. But visitors can request that their
contact information not be shared with other
organizations (see below).
- This site contains links to other sites. Sempervirens
Fund is not responsible for the privacy practices or the
content of such websites.
How to Modify Your Personal
Information
There are several ways for individuals to
request the removal of their personal information from our
data base, to opt-out of receiving future communications
from us, or to prohibit the sharing of their personal
information with other environmental non-profit
organizations.
