Privacy Policy

Information We Collect

Hello! Welcome to GRuB’s Privacy Policy. The purpose of this policy is to describe the kinds of information we may collect about you when you interact with our website, GOODGRUB.ORG (or the websites of one of our service providers), what we do with it, how you may maintain control over it, and how we keep it secure.

‍

ANONYMOUS INFORMATION

Whenever you visit GOODGRUB.ORG, the following anonymous information is collected as a routine aspect of the communications between your computer and our web server:

• Your browser type & version (for example, Internet Explorer 10)
• Your computer’s operating system & version (for example, Windows 8)
• Your IP (Internet Protocol) address (a numerical identifier assigned to your ISP or your individual computer)
• The date & time of your visit
• The pages you visited while on our website
• The address of the website you visited just prior to ours

We use this information in order to determine how our website is being used, so that we can optimize its content organization & design.

‍

PERSONAL INFORMATION

In addition to the information collected anonymously about your visit to GOODGRUB.ORG, we also collect and store personally identifying information about you if you choose to submit that information to us through any of our web forms, such as our Kitchen Garden Project application form, or our Volunteer Newsletter signup form.

Some of our web forms, such as our Donation form, are hosted by a third-party company, Z2 Systems, Inc., with whom we contract to provide Constituent Relationship Management (CRM) and payment processing services. The forms which are provided by Z2 Systems can be identified by examining the URL in your browser’s address bar; any URL showing the domain Z2SYSTEMS.COM is located on the web servers of that company, not on our servers. Any information submitted through the forms hosted by Z2 Systems is subject to the security and privacy policies of Z2 Systems, Inc.

We also utilize third-party service providers to, for example, create and send email newsletters. Information submitted by you through any of our newsletter signup forms are subject to the security and privacy policies of these providers.

‍

What We Do With Your Information

GRuB does not sell, rent, or otherwise make available to any third party any information you provide to us through our website or the websites of any of our service providers.

When you sign up for a GRuB Newletter or use one of our other sign-up forms, your information is added to our database. We will utilize this information to contact you for event invitations, organizational news, donation requests, and other pertinent communications. You are welcome to change your preferences regarding how/if you would like to be contacted at any time by contacting us.

If you wish to unsubscribe from any of our email newsletters, follow the instructions in the footer of one of these newsletters, or contact us.

Security

Any personally-identifiable information you submit to us electronically, either through our website or through the websites of one of our service providers, is encrypted between your gateway and our servers using the SSL protocol.

Information submitted to us through one of the web forms hosted on GOODGRUB.ORG is stored in a database on our web server, and access is restricted to authorized GRuB staff members and approved database volunteers only.

GRuB utilizes shared web hosting, and our hosting provider maintains a secure physical and virtual environment for our website files and database.

Visiting GOODGRUB.ORG may cause one or more electronic “cookies” to be placed in your web browser, especially if you are signed into social networks such as Facebook or Twitter and you interact with a Facebook or Twitter widget on our website (such as a “Like” button).

If you notice that we, or one of our service providers, are not abiding by this privacy policy, please let us know as soon as possible, by contacting our office.
