Go To Nations reserves the right to revise this privacy policy.
This policy was last updated November 2009
1. Collection and Use of Information
Go To Nations is committed to preserving the privacy of its web visitors, missionaries, staff, intercessory teams, donors and volunteers. We take precautions to keep user data secure. Access to web visitor information will be limited to Go To Nations staff, project leaders, and others involved with Go To Nations activities. Personal information will not be otherwise shared, given, loaned, or sold to any other individual or organization.
The information provided by our web visitors will be used by Go To Nations to coordinate and track our projects, and to communicate with Go To Nation web visitors and volunteers about missions’ opportunities, projects and activities. Such information will not be used for commercial, personal, or unlawful purposes.
2. Security
Go To Nations employs security measures to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of information under our control. For example, our site may use a Secured Socket Layer (SSL) server for activities such as order forms, and for users to make donations, download information and materials, and to make purchases online. For this, users need to provide contact information (such as name, postal and e-mail addresses) and financial information (credit card numbers and expiration dates). Information that is collected from a person may be used to verify their qualifications for registration, to bill them for products and services, and for all purposes related to the transaction. These uses could include processing your order, transmitting information to the participating merchant or service provider, and authenticating your purchase(s), and the information you have provided. We also use technology to protect your credit card number when we store your order and whenever we transfer that information to participating merchants or service providers.
We cannot guarantee that the security measures we implement in connection with the operation of the site will absolutely prevent others from accessing or acquiring any information that you provide while using our website. You can help protect the security of your information by never giving out your password and by remembering to sign out of your account, and close your browser window when you finish visiting our site, so that other people using the same computer will not have access to your information.
3. Site Registration
We give visitors to our site the opportunity to register or provide their contact information such as their e-mail address so they can receive updates such as Newsletters, Event Announcements, and Field News. You may also be required to register on the website to engage in other activities, such as purchases or downloads of materials, services, products, donations, receiving promotions, or registering for conferences and activities. Personally identifiable information that you provide in these registrations is used consistently with this policy, and we will notify you at a particular site if any uses are different than these uses. You can choose not to receive such mailings, or cancel any registrations, by un-subscribing. (See "Opt-In/Opt-Out Communications" below).
4. How To Unsubscribe
We provide visitors to our site the opportunity to register for services which our organization provides. In the event you have registered for a service, and now wish to be unsubscribed, please contact us at unsubscribe@gotonations.org to request that we no longer contact you via e-mail or other means using the personal information you have provided.

6. Cookies and information Collected by Technology
The Site may use cookies to keep track of website activities, save your password, or deliver content specific to your interests. A cookie is a small data file that certain Web sites write to your hard drive when you visit them. A cookie file can contain information such as a user ID that the site uses to track the pages you've visited. The only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. You can refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies, if you prefer. If you
choose to decline cookies, you may be unable to fully experience certain interactive features of the website or access all of the services provided through the site. Our website may collect some information (such as your IP address) that may not be readily apparent to you that it is being collected. We may use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer the site. Your IP address may also be used to help us identify you and any activity in which you engage. We do keep track of the domains from which people visit us. We analyze this data for trends and statistics, but we do not keep it in a personally identifiable manner.
The site also uses information collected through technology to make the site more interesting and useful to you. We normally do not combine this type of information with personally identifiable information. However, we may combine this information with personally identifiable information to identify a visitor in order to enforce compliance with our Terms of Use, or to protect the site, interests and reputation, guests, and/or others. Demographic and profile data may also be collected at the site. We can use this data to tailor our visitors' experience at the site, showing them content that we think they might be interested in, and displaying the content according to their preferences.
7. Third Party Sites and Information
The Go To Nations website may contain links to other sites that are run by third parties, such as other organizations, Sponsors, Content Providers and Advertisers. Once you've clicked on a link or button activator for an outside Site, you will leave our website. Because Go To Nations does not control the content of third party websites, our privacy policy will no longer apply to those sites.
You must read the privacy policy of the third party website concerning how personal information will be used. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such Content Providers or Third-Party Sites.
8. Regarding Minors
We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of 18. If in the event, a minor has made a purchase, or registered for an event, Go To Nations is not to be held responsible. If you are ordering or purchasing any product, or registering for an event, you agree that you are atleast 18 years of age. We occasionally may host or offer access to some chat rooms, or other Forums, where no personally identifiable information is collected or posted. Children can visit these Forums without having to first provide any personally identifiable information.
9. Public Forums
At times, Go To Nations may make Forums (as defined in the Terms of Use ) available to its registered users. We are not responsible for the content posted in any chat rooms or other Forum. Please remember that any information disclosed in any Forum becomes public information, and you should exercise caution when deciding to disclose any personal information. Any information you submit to our website is the property of the site unless Go To Nations indicates otherwise. If you post personal information online that is accessible to the public (in any Forum, message board, or "chat" environment), you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return.
