Website Information and Privacy Policy

Why we collect information

Nature Foundation, ABN 24 131 531 874 (or the Foundation), collects personal information such as name, addresses, email and phone contact details, payment method details, age range and personal interests. We collect this from donors, non-financial supporters, members and volunteers. We collect personal information in a variety of ways – event registration, donation or membership payment (so that we can provide receipts), general queries, and other activities of Nature Foundation that necessitate personal details being supplied. 

Our obligation to you

You have the right to access the personal information that Nature Foundation has collected and can opt out of receiving information from Nature Foundation by contacting [email protected]

Nature Foundation will endeavour to comply with the privacy of any personal information collected through this website, in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988. The Foundation does not sell, rent, or exchange (as a 'swap') personal information with any other organisation. Please click here  for a copy of our Privacy Policy.

Nature Foundation may disclose some personal information to organisations that provide services, as follows:

For all the above, Nature Foundation only uses organisations that adhere to a Privacy Policy, and who guarantee not to disclose your personal information to others or use it for any other purpose.

Taxation laws require that you must provide your name and address to us if you wish to receive a receipt for your donation in order to obtain a tax deduction. However, you are free to make an anonymous donation e.g. by money order, but you cannot claim a tax deduction. You are entitled to know how Nature Foundation obtained your name and address.

Privacy

Nature Foundation utilises tools such as Google Analytics to provide information about website utilisation. When you visit this web site, we record anonymous information about your visit and log the following information for statistical purposes:

This information is not specific to an individual and is used for system-administration purposes, as well as statistical analysis. While anonymous information does not tell us anything about you specifically, it tells us about how you use our site.

Identifying users

Nature Foundation does not seek to identify users or their browsing activities. The exceptions to this are: in the case where users supply the required identifying information in the course of completing one of  Nature Foundation's input forms; or in the unlikely event of an investigation where a law enforcement agency may exercise a warrant to inspect Nature Foundation's logs.

This site does not currently collect personally identifiable information, such as your name, address, date of birth or gender, unless you complete one of Nature Foundation's input forms. Nature Foundation will only record your email address if you send us a message. This information will only be used for the purpose for which you have provided it and will not be added to a mailing list. We will not use your email address for any other purpose, and will not disclose it without your consent.

Cookies

Another type of anonymous information shared between your browser and our server is a cookie. A cookie is a small text file that a server places on your hard drive to identify that subsequent requests to a site have come from the same user. Nature Foundation uses cookies to 'remember' your browser between page visits. In this situation, the cookie identifies your browser, not you personally.  Nature Foundation uses cookies on this web site to develop patterns of site usage. No personal information is stored within Nature Foundation's cookies.
