PRIVACY POLICY

This Privacy Policy describes the personally identifiable information that the Europe Peace Foundation (“Europe Peace Foundation,” “we,” “us”) collects in the European region through our website located at www.europefoundation.org (the “Site”) and how we use that information. Please note that this Privacy Policy applies solely to our online information-gathering and dissemination practices in connection with the Site, and does not apply to any of our practices conducted offline or outside of Europe.

The Information That We Collect and How we Use the Information Europe Peace Foundation collects two types of information about users of our Site:

(1) Personally identifiable information: In general, you do not have to provide us with your personally identifiable information to use this Site. However, certain services to which you may subscribe through this Site (e.g., our newsletters) may require you to provide personally identifiable information, such as your name, physical address, organization name, and email address. You may also be required to submit personally identifiable information, including your credit card number and account information, in connection with purchases and donations that you make through the Site. We use such personally identifiable information to respond to your inquiries, send you newsletters or publications that you request, and to fulfill your orders and process your donations. You may also receive other mailings relating to Europe Foundation that we think may be of interest to you. If you decide at any time that you no longer wish to receive emails from us, please refer to the paragraph below headed “Changing or Deleting Personal Information.”

If you contact us by email through the Site or submit your resume though the Site, we will collect any personally identifiable information that you transmit to us and we may keep a record of your contact information and correspondence, and we reserve the right to use your email address, and any information that you provide to us in your message, to communicate with you. In addition, on rare occasions, we may send by email important administrative information regarding the Site or services to users who have provided us with their email addresses; because this information may be important to your use of the Site and is regarding our ongoing relationship, it is not possible to “opt out” of receiving these emails.

(2)Non-personally identifiable information: We may use cookies to collect non-personally identifiable information in connection with the Site. Our web pages may incorporate “pixel tags,” “web beacons,” or similar tracking technologies (collectively, “pixel tags”) that allow us or our agents to track the actions of users of our Site. Pixel tags are used to collect non-personally identifiable information, such as the name of your internet service provider, the IP address of the computer you are using, the type of browser software and operating system that you use, the date and time you access our Site, the website address, if any, from which you linked directly to our Site, the website address, if any, to which you travel from our Site, and other similar traffic-related information. We may also aggregate your information with similar data collected from other users to help us improve our Site and the services that we provide through our Site. We do not use such data in any way to create or maintain a personal profile of you.

How We Disclose the Information We Gather

We reserve the right to provide such information to our employees, contractors, agents, and designees to the extent necessary to enable them to perform certain Site-related services (e.g., web hosting and maintenance services, improving the Site and its features, and fulfilling orders and processing donations) on our behalf. We also reserve the right to disclose such information to any third party if we believe that we are required to do so for any or all of the following reasons: (i) by law; (ii) to comply with legal processes or governmental requests; (iii) to prevent, investigate, detect, or prosecute criminal offenses or attacks on the technical integrity of the Site or our network; and/or (iv) to protect the rights, property, or safety of Europe Foundation and its affiliates, its and their partners and employees, the users of the Site, and the public.
