DATA & PRIVACY POLICY

LITTLE HEARTS LEARNING

PRIVACY POLICY

This website is owned and operated by the Nonprofit Little Hearts Learning (“LHL”),

1. Acceptance of LHL’s Privacy Policy. With respect to information submitted or collected on the LHL website (the “Site”), you accept LHL’s privacy policy as set forth herein (the “Privacy Policy”). This Privacy Policy does not pertain to, and LHL is not responsible for the privacy practices of, any third party websites to which the LHL Site hyperlinks. Certain areas of the LHL Site may be subject to additional privacy related provisions, links to which will be posted in
those areas.

2. Activity Logging. When you use the LHL Site, which may be hosted in part or its entirety by a third party, the LHL Site will collect information indirectly and automatically (through, for example, the use of “cookies” or your “IP address”) about your activities. LHL uses this activity
information (the “Activity Information”) for internal purposes such as to administer the LHL Site, improve the LHL Site, and help LHL understand how the LHL Site is being used including the demographics and “clickstreams” of its visitors. “Cookies” are small pieces of information stored on your hard drive, not on the LHL Site. You are always free to decline cookies if your browser permits, but in that case, some portions of the LHL Site may not operate properly. An “IP address” is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the Internet.

3. Personally Identifiable Information. The LHL Site is designed so that you may generally browse it without providing any Personally Identifiable Information (defined below). Certain areas of the LHL Site, however, may require or allow the voluntarily submission of Personally Identifiable Information (for example the donation page). LHL uses your Personally Identifiable Information for the purposes for which it was submitted by you to LHL and for LHL to send you publications and invitations that may be of interest to you. Except as otherwise set forth in this Privacy Policy, LHL does not share your Personally Identifiable Information with third parties.
“Personally Identifiable Information” means information that would allow someone to identify or contact you, such as your name, physical or electronic mail address, and telephone number; provided, however, that Personally Identifiable Information does not include aggregated information that, by itself, does not permit the identification of individual persons and does not include the Activity Information.

4. Removal of Personally Identifiable Information. LHL will use reasonable efforts to remove your Personally Identifiable Information from our then current LHL Site at any time upon your written request to info@littleheartslearning.org. Such removal of Personally Identifiable Information will not ensure the permanent removal of such Personally Identifiable Information from the LHL Site. For example, such Personally Identifiable Information may remain in LHL’s archival or backup copies of the LHL Site.

5. Sharing of Information At times LHL may offer programs (e.g., contests or promotions) that are sponsored by or co-branded with identified third parties. As part of LHL’s mission we may also partner with schools that LHL is helping to support. By virtue of these relationships, the third parties may obtain personally identifiable information that you voluntarily submit. LHL has no control the third-party’s use of this information in this context.

6. Donor Payment Systems LHL uses third party vendors to process donations such as Paypal and Stripe (“Payment Processors”). The privacy policy and security policy of those sites will govern what information they collect and share. Donors who are making a recurring donation will have either their Paypal account information stored by Paypal, or credit card account information stored by Stripe. Also please note that when making an anonymous donation the Payment Processors will ask and thus have access to your Personal Identifiable Information.

7. Additional Disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information LHL may share Personally Identifiable Information with third parties, including affiliated firms and third parties performing services for or on behalf of LHL. Such services may include communications, database, event management, hosting, mailing, and marketing services. Additionally, LHL cannot fully ensure that your Personally Identifiable Information will not be disclosed to third parties. For example, LHL may be legally obligated to disclose information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances, third parties may circumvent LHL’s security measures to unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, or an error may occur in the administration of the LHL Site. In the unlikely event that LHL needs to investigate or resolve possible problems or inquiries, LHL may, and you authorize LHL to, disclose any information
about you to government officials as permitted by applicable law.

8. Miscellaneous Privacy Terms LHL has implemented and follows appropriate technical measures to protect against the risks of unauthorized access to, erroneous disclosure of, and unlawful interception of Personally Identifiable Information. You should know, however, that LHL cannot fully eliminate such risks. LHL hopes this Privacy Policy clarifies LHL’s procedures regarding its collection, use and disclosure of your information including Personally Identifiable Information. From time to time, LHL may modify this Privacy Policy. Such
modifications will be effective on the date that LHL posts the modified statement to the LHL Site. Questions or concerns regarding the Privacy Policy may be submitted to info@littleheartslearning.org.

9. Privacy Policy Effective Date This Privacy Policy is effective as of September 4, 2020.
