Your privacy is critically important to us, so at Huddle Foundation we have a few fundamental principles. If you find content on the Huddle Foundation website you believe violates our Privacy Policy, please contact us immediately.
We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it. We can’t stand services that ask you for things like your gender or income level for no apparent reason.
We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law or protect our rights.
We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the on-going operation of the contributions and donations services.
Huddle Foundation
Huddle Foundation operates a website at mediacause.org. It is Huddle Foundation’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website. If you have questions about deleting or correcting your personal data please contact our support team.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, Huddle Foundation collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. MediaCause’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Huddle Foundation’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Huddle Foundation may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
Huddle Foundation also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users making contributions. Huddle Foundation only discloses logged in user IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information.
Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to Huddle Foundation’s websites choose to interact with Huddle Foundation in ways that require Huddle Foundation to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Huddle Foundation gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for a newsletter from Huddle Foundation at huddle.foundation to provide a name and email address so we can email you updates about Huddle Foundation.
Those who engage in transactions with Huddle Foundation — by making a contribution, for example — are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those financial donations. In each case, Huddle Foundation collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Huddle Foundation and legal responsibilities of the non-profit entity. Huddle Foundation does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
Aggregated Statistics
Huddle Foundation may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its website. For instance, Huddle Foundation may monitor the most popular pages and articles on the huddle.foundation site or use spam screened by the Akismet service to help identify spammers. Huddle Foundation may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Huddle Foundation does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Business Transfers
If Huddle Foundation, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, or in the unlikely event that Huddle Foundation goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of Huddle Foundation may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.
Ads
No 3rd party ads are or will ever be displayed on huddle.foundation, and no 3rd party ad network tracking scripts are or will ever be utilized.
Privacy Policy Changes
Although most changes are likely to be minor, Huddle Foundation may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and at Huddle Foundation’s sole discretion. Huddle Foundation encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. If you have a huddle.foundation account, you should also check your blog’s dashboard for alerts to these changes. Your continued use of this site after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
Protection of Information
Huddle Foundation discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that
(i) need to know that information in order to process it on Huddle Foundation’s behalf or to provide services available at Huddle Foundation’s websites, and
(ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others.
Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Huddle Foundation’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Huddle Foundation will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone.
Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Huddle Foundation discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Huddle Foundation believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Huddle Foundation, third parties or the public at large.
If you are a registered user of an Huddle Foundation website and have supplied your email address, Huddle Foundation may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with MediaCause and our services. We primarily use our website to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum.
If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Huddle Foundation takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
Email Communication
Huddle Foundation sends a newsletter and occasional nonprofit marketing updates that we believe will be useful to individuals that subscribe to our website or blog, download a whitepaper, or request updates. Users may remove themselves from this mailing list by following the link provided in every email. We will not sell, distribute or lease your personal information to third parties unless we have your permission or are required by law.
