Our Privacy Policy (Last updated: June 16, 2010)

Jolkona Foundation, Inc. ("we," "us," "our," or "Jolkona") operates www.jolkona.org (the "Website"). We respect and value your privacy. We collect information to provide you with the best experience, improve our services to you and our partners (the non-profit organizations that have partnered with us), and allow our partners to be diligent and efficient with your gifts. We understand the trust you place in us with your information and we take that responsibility very seriously.

Collection of Personal Information

We collect personal information such as your name, user name, password, and electronic mail address when you create an account, update your account, or make a gift. When you visit this Website, some information such as the website that referred you, your IP address, and your electronic mail address may be automatically collected as part of the Website's operation. From your profile in the Website, you can control which personal information you would like to share with us or our partners. We will not be responsible, however, for recalling information we previously provided to our partners prior to receiving and processing your opt out request.

Use of Personal Information

We use this information to generate user profiles and to personalize our Website to your particular interests. We may share statistical information about users of our Website with our partners. The personal information collected from this Website is stored indefinitely and may be disclosed to our various worldwide offices, subsidiaries, affiliates, and any necessary payment processors. We may also selectively provide some of your personal information, such as your name and electronic mail address, to third party associates that partner with us. We do not share information with other companies other than with our partners and do not sell our customer information. The personal information we collect is used for various purposes, such as [e.g. marketing, product and service development, facilitating your use of this Website, customizing your image selection and personalizing the Website to your interests]. Because of the nature of the Internet, such data may pass through any country. Unless you opt out of receiving promotional materials, we may send you information by electronic mail to the address you provide on the registration screen. From time to time we may notify you of special promotions, new products or services, or other information that may interest you. You may also receive notifications of special promotions and new products or services from our partners. You also should be aware that we reserve the right to disclose your personal information if required to do so by law, or in the good faith belief that such action is reasonably necessary to comply with legal process, respond to claims, or protect the rights, property or safety of our company, employees, customers, or the public.

Information Security

We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure, or destruction of data. We restrict access to your personally identifying information to employees who need to know that information in order to operate, develop or improve our services. Passwords are stored in encrypted format for increased security. Our servers are protected by firewalls and are physically located in secure data facilities to further increase security. While no computer is 100% safe from outside attacks, we believe that the steps we have taken to protect your personal information dramatically reduce the likelihood of security problems to a level appropriate to the type of data involved.
