Privacy Policy
Introduction
The Reborn Animal Rescue, Inc. (RAR) Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we collect it, and how that information is used.
RAR Protects Your Information
We value the support of our volunteers, donors, fosters, adopters and others who support Reborn Animal Rescue through visiting our website and in the community. We know that protecting personal information is important to our supporters.
Community
RAR uses appropriate safeguards to ensure the security and privacy of the information you provide. We do not share your personal information with companies, organizations, or individuals outside of RAR. We do not post pictures or details about you without your permission, i.e., we would ask you for permission to post a story about you and your newly adopted animal after an adoption is completed.
Fosters and Volunteers
RAR reserves the right to share pictures of our fosters and volunteers. Pictures that are taken at RAR events or of our fosters and their foster animals may be shared on the RAR website as well as other social media. If a foster or volunteer posts about their foster animal or a volunteer activity, these posts may also be shared on RAR website and other social media.
How Information Is Collected and Used
RAR uses the information we collect about you to answer your inquiries, process your application for adopting, fostering, and/or volunteering, and to help you surrender an animal.
RAR collects information about you during each interaction we have with you. For example, when you submit an Adoption Application through our website, you provide us with your name, your contact information, characteristics of your home environment, contact information for each of your references, pet history, veterinarian history, family members living in your home, etc. We also collect information during Home Visits, phone conversations, emails, Facebook posts, etc. and update your record in our database accordingly.
When you interact with us, regardless of the media used, you are providing information voluntarily and intentionally.
Website Security
RAR also collects information about how our website is used. For example, we look at which pages have the most visitors, how many new visitors we had on an individual day, the average length of time people spend browsing our site, and so on. We use this information to update our website and improve the information we offer on our Facebook page.
The security of your personal information is important to us. When you enter sensitive information (such as credit card information) on our donation or order forms, we encrypt that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL Certificate).
We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect your personal information, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, while we strive to use acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
If you have any questions about security on our Website, feel free to contact us.
Please also note the following
- Reborn Animal Rescue, Inc. (RAR) owns and maintains the RAR website and all data collected from the use of the website.
- We occasionally provide links to external websites on our website and Facebook page. Our Privacy Policy does not cover any information you may provide on those external sites.
