Totallywild.net Privacy Policy | This policy governs all pages hosted at TotallyWild.net. It does not apply to pages hosted by other organisations to which we may link and whose privacy policies may differ.
For the purposes of this policy, the term "supporter" refers to someone who has given a financial donation via our secure server.
We do not collect personally identifiable information on our web site unless you voluntarily choose to give it to us via an electronic mail message, a phone call, by signing up as a supporter, or by postal mail. Even when you choose to give us information, we keep it confidential, and we bind suppliers who work with us by these conditions as well.
We do not sell or rent web-generated mailing lists or other personally identifiable information outside TotallyWild.net.
We do not provide mailing lists to outside agencies unless they agree to be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy.
We will never send you unsolicited materials as a result of participating in our sponsorship schemes.
If you sign up in an online action such as sponsoring an animal you may be given the option to participate in future on-line actions, to receive news of actions results, to receive a newsletter or further information, or to be invited to contribute to TotallyWild.net. You will always be given the option to decline any or all of those choices.
If you become a supporter of TotallyWild.net and The Aspinall Foundation you may be given the option to participate in on-line events or to receive a newsletter or further information. Again, you will always be given the option to decline.
Information collected for fundraising purposes is collected on a server we own and maintain. The main server is housed with a hosting company whose privacy policies conform to our own.
Information in our website logs is not personally identifiable, and we make no attempt to link that information with the individuals that actually browse the site. The server collects information about the date and time in which our web site was accessed and the internet address of the server from which you linked to our site. We may also track, anonymously, a user's movement within the site. We use this data to improve our site performance and to evaluate traffic statistics, such as the times of day and days of week at which we see peak traffic, and to assess the relative popularity of different areas of the site.
A cookie is a tiny element of data that our site can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your hard drive. Our web site uses cookies to customise certain options. For example, if you sponsor an animal online we will ask if you want your sponsored animal to greet you when you next come back to the site. This small amount of information does NOT contain any private information stored on your computer. You may set your web browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, or to disable cookies altogether. We do not use cookies to track your content choices.
We are committed to providing our supporters with ways of monitoring and amending the information you provide to us, and are currently developing the tools to do so.
Our online payment supplier's pages use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL): a security protocol that provides communications privacy over the Internet. The protocol allows client/server applications to communicate in a way that is designed to prevent eavesdropping, tampering, or message forgery. It encrypts all of your personal information, including credit card number, name, and address, so that it cannot be read as the information travels over the Internet. While on a secure page, such as our donation form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Opera, Netscape Navigator, and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when you are just 'surfing'.
Finally, the servers that we store personally identifiable information on are kept in a very secure environment; they are hosted by The Bunker:
"Dedicated servers are locked into the Web in a former NATO nuclear bunker, hidden in a low-risk countryside area. Thirty metres below ground, the data centre matches high physical and digital security, Night vision CCTV, 24-hour security patrols with trained guard dogs, 3.5 metre high security fencing, multiple redundant national grid electricity feeds, automatic fire suppression and environmental control systems and a 24 x 7 Networks Operation Centre are some the things we can boast about.
Then there are the parts we don't tell ANYONE about"
