Privacy Policy
Last updated on July 23, 2021.
The Victoria’s Voice Foundation (“FOUNDATION,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) understands that privacy is important to online visitors to our website and online services, and to our donors who donate online or offline (“Donors”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share and protect your non-personally identifiable and personally identifiable information obtained through all FOUNDATION websites and mobile applications, including, but not limited to, www.victoriasvoicefoundation.com and through offline services, as well as how Donors can opt-out of having their personal information shared. By using a FOUNDATION Website or making a donation, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy and our Terms & Conditions. Capitalized terms that are not defined in this Privacy Policy have the meaning given them in our Terms & Conditions.
In order to fully understand your rights, we encourage you to read this entire Privacy Policy as well as our Terms & Conditions. Since we will continue to implement new technologies and improve the FOUNDATION’s services, this Privacy Policy is subject to change. We reserve the right at any time to change this Privacy Policy. If there are changes or additions to this Privacy Policy, we will post those changes here, so that you will always know what information we collect, how we use it and what choices you have. All changes will be effective immediately upon posting.

6. HOW WE STORE AND PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION
Storage and Processing: Your information collected by the FOUNDATION will be stored and processed in the United States. We will establish minimum and maximum retention periods based upon the type of information collected (i.e., sensitivity), the intended purposes and as otherwise required by law.
Keeping your information safe: The FOUNDATION cares about the security of your information, and uses commercially reasonable physical, administrative, and technological safeguards to preserve the integrity and security of all information collected. In particular, the FOUNDATION Website has industry standard high encryption security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control and all payment information is transmitted using Secure Socket Layer (“SSL”) technology. SSL encrypts your payment information to avoid the decoding of that information by anyone other than the FOUNDATION. However, no security system is impenetrable and we cannot guarantee the security of our systems 100%. In the event that any information under our control is compromised as a result of a breach of security, the FOUNDATION will take reasonable steps to investigate the situation and where appropriate, notify those individuals whose information may have been compromised and take other steps, in accordance with any applicable laws and regulations.
7. CHILDREN’S PRIVACY
The FOUNDATION recognizes the importance of protecting the privacy of personal information, particularly that of children. We take all required steps to protect the privacy and safety of children in accordance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”). The FOUNDATION does not knowingly collect or solicit any information from anyone under the age of 13 or knowingly allow such persons to provide information. In the event that we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under age 13, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that we might have any information from a child under 13, please contact us at contact@victoriasvoice.foundation. You can find out more about online privacy for children from the Federal Trade Commission at https://www.ftc.gov/tips-advice/business-center/privacy-and-security/children’s-privacy.
