When you are making a donation, purchasing a product, expressing an interest in referring Donation, or subscribing to our online newsletter, we ask you for personal contact information, including your name, mailing address, phone number, and e-mail address. We will use this contact information to provide you with information or resources you have requested, such as information about Rural Empowerment and Institutional Development, a receipt, or a financial report, or we will use your information to contact you to clarify or verify other information, such as an order you placed, a donation you made or that you have referred.

We will not add your name and contact information to any mailing lists without your prior knowledge or express permission. We will always ask or inform you before adding you to a mailing list. If we do not, you will not be added.

Personal contact information is not shared with any organization outside of Rural Empowerment and Institutional Development. We have contracts to protect your privacy with all of staff/agents. In some cases, when you wish to refer a donor, make a donation to your country’s affiliate, or ask for country-specific information, your contact information may be passed on to your country’s affiliate. Your country’s affiliate will not add you to their mailing lists unless you have expressly asked to be added.

Personal billing information we collect and what we do with it

In addition to personal contact information, we ask for billing information, such as your billing address and credit card number, when you make a donation or purchase a product. We use secure servers to gather and process your billing information. These secure servers are hosted by our agent HostGartor, which is bound by our site policies. Your billing information is not shared with any other organizations, and your credit card number is not retained once your transaction has been authorized and processed.

Other contact information we collect and what we do with it

In some instances, we ask for contact information for people other than yourself – for example, e-mail addresses of friends to whom you wish to send a copy of one of our pages or the mailing address of someone you wish to have us notify of a donation you have made. Such contact information is not added to any mailing list nor is the information shared with any other organization. Collecting such information for our own use is called prospecting. Rural Empowerment and Institutional Development does not prospect.
