Dashing Dog Rescue Privacy Policy

EFFECTIVE DATE: October 3, 2018

Welcome to www.DashingDogRescue.com (the "Website") operated by DASHING DOG RESCUE, a Texas Registered 501(c)(3) Not For Profit Charitable Organization (hereinafter, "DASHING DOG RESCUE", "us", "our" or "we"). The Website is intended to offer visitors to the Website information about DASHING DOG RESCUE and the types of services that we offer. DASHING DOG RESCUE is strongly committed to protecting your personal information and providing a safe and secure environment for visitors to the Website. This Privacy Policy is intended to inform you about how we collect and use information through the Website.

DASHING DOG RESCUE presents the materials on this Website exclusively for viewing by clients, prospects, and other visitors to get a better sense of our capabilities and services.

DASHING DOG RESCUE reserves the right to change how we handle the information we collect and process through the Website at any time. We will update this Privacy Policy to reflect any changes and such changes will take effect immediately upon being posted to the Dashing Dog Rescue Website.

What type of information do we collect from you and how do we use it?

Visitors to the Website may use the Website without providing us with any personally identifiable information ("PII"), such as your name, address, email address, and phone number. You may, however, submit PII to us by sending an email to one of the DASHING DOG RESCUE contacts listed on the "Contact" section of the Website and otherwise by participating in events that we may sponsor from time to time. Unless you provide PII to us in this manner, we will collect only non-PII from you. If you do not want us to have any of your PII, do not email any of our contacts.

There are several ways that we may collect non-PII from you. For instance, we may collect information about your use of the Website by using cookies, action tags and other methods. Cookies are small text files that identify your computer. We may use cookies to, among other things, monitor Website usage, customize Website features, and identify your computer's operating system and browser. An action tag is a small, graphic image on a webpage that is designed to allow the Website owner or a third party to monitor who is visiting a website by collecting the IP address of the computer to which the tag is sent, the URL of the webpage that the tag comes from and the time that such webpage was viewed. Such tags also may be associated with cookie information.

Do I have the ability not to be identified by DASHING DOG RESCUE?

Yes. If you do not want to be identified by us, you can set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies and refuse cookies when your browser alerts you to its presence. You can also adjust the settings in your browser to refuse all cookies. If you do not want us to have any of your PII, do not submit any of your PII to us.

Do we transfer or release any PII collected from you?

If you provide PII to us, we will use such PII for internal purposes only, in our sole discretion, unless otherwise expressly disclose other uses to you. DASHING DOG RESCUE will not sell your PII to third parties, unless you consent in writing to such use of your PII by DASHING DOG RESCUE.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that you do provide us with PII, we may release such PII if (i) we believe that such a release is necessary to comply with the law (e.g., a legal process or a statutory authorization), (ii) to protect our rights or property, or (iii) in the event of any reorganization, merger or consolidation involving DASHING DOG RESCUE.

Do we provide links to other websites?

DASHING DOG RESCUE may provide links to other websites or resources of possible interest to you. Because we have no control over such websites or resources, the collection and use of your PII and other information by such websites shall be subject to the policies and procedures of such websites and not this Privacy Policy. We encourage you to always review the privacy policy of each website you visit to determine how your information will be collected and used.

How do we store information?

DASHING DOG RESCUE takes steps consistent with commercially reasonable industry standards to secure any PII collected from you from loss, misuse, unauthorized access and destruction while under our control. Please note that despite our efforts to protect information provided to us, we cannot guarantee that such information will not be lost, disclosed or accessed by accidental circumstances or by the unauthorized acts of others.

What are our policies regarding children?

DASHING DOG RESCUE does not knowingly collect PII from anyone under thirteen (13) years of age.

Do we have a mechanism to address complaints about the handling of information that we collect?

If you have questions or concerns about any of our information collection or handling practices, please contact us in writing via our online form on our contact page.
