Privacy Policy
Dolphin
Research
Center
is committed to providing you with a safe internet environment that
fosters your knowledge of dolphins and other marine mammals. This privacy
policy discloses how we collect, protect, use and share information gathered
about you on our web site.
What information do we collect and how are
we collecting it?
Information You Provide – Most of the
Dolphin
Research
Center
web site can be
viewed anonymously. However, some activities on our web site make it necessary
to collect your personally identifiable information. For example, when you
Adopt-A-Dolphin or join the Dolphin
Society, we may collect your name, age,
e-mail address, street and billing address, phone number and credit card
information.
Information Collected from Children – DRC will not condition a child’s participation
in an activity on the child’s disclosure of more personal information
than is reasonably necessary. In addition, a parent may review the information
collected from a child by accessing the child’s account. A parent may
also have a child’s information deleted or refuse to permit the future
collection of information from the child.
How does
Dolphin
Research
Center
use your
personally identifiable information?
Dolphin
Research
Center
uses your personally identifiable information in a limited number of
ways. If you Adopt-A-Dolphin or join the Dolphin
Society, we use your
information to process the transaction. However, financial information is not
stored by DRC after your membership request is processed. Other personally
identifiable information may be used to contact you directly to discuss your
membership, answer questions posed by you or inform you of special
opportunities or promotions.
Dolphin
Research
Center
does not share your personally identifiable information with other
companies or organizations. However, we will share your personal information if
we are required to do so by law. Examples include compliance with a court order
or subpoena.
What are your choices with respect to
DRC’s collection and use of your personal information?
You may use much of our web site without
giving us any personally identifiable information. However, when you register
with us or give us personally identifiable information of yours, you can limit
our use of your information. For example, you can limit e-mail communication
from DRC. You may also unsubscribe from DRC communications by e-mailing our
Membership Department at drc-mbr@dolphins.org.
What kind of security does DRC provide?
Dolphin
Research
Center
wants its web site visitors and members to feel confident that their
personally identifiable information is protected. Consequently, DRC uses
encryption technology to protect sensitive data such as your credit card
information.
