eANGEL PRIVACY STATEMENT

Information Collection and Use

eAngel is the sole owner of the information collected on this site.  We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement.  eAngel collects information from our users at several different points on our website.

Registration

In order to make or receive a donation, a user must first complete the registration form.  During registration a user is required to give their contact information (such as name and email address).  This information is used to contact the user about the services on our site for which they have expressed interest.

Cookies

A cookie is a piece of data stored for varying amounts of time on the user's hard drive containing information about the user.  Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site.  Once the user closes their browser, the cookie simply terminates.  If a user configures his or her browser’s security settings to reject cookies, they may still use our site.

Some of our business partners place cookies on our site (for example, advertisers).  However, we have no access to or control over these cookies.

Log Files

eAngel uses Internet Protocol addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's movement, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use.  Internet Protocol addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.

Sharing

eAngel partners with other parties to provide specific services. When the user signs up for these services, we will share names, or other contact information that is necessary for the third party to provide these services.

These parties are not allowed to use personally identifiable information except for the purpose of providing these services.

Links

This web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that eAngel is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites.  We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information.  This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Web site.

Security

This website takes every reasonable precaution to protect our users' information.  When users submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and off-line.

While we protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line.  All of our users' information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices.  Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information.  In this regard, eAngel will make every effort to keep abreast of security requirements and will monitor developments within the industry.  Finally, the servers that we store personally identifiable information on are kept in a secure environment.

If you have any questions about the security at our website, you can contact us here.

Correction/Updating Personal Information:

If a user's personally identifiable information changes (such as your zip code), or if a user no longer desires our service, we will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update or remove that user's personal data provided to us.  This can usually be done at the donor or agency registration page or by emailing our Customer Support.  [telephone or postal mail options for updating or correcting personal information?].

Notification of Changes

If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on our Homepage so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under circumstances, if any, we disclose it.  If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users by way of an email.  Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected.
