Donor Privacy Policy

Peace River Refuge & Ranch is committed to protecting the privacy of its donors and  potential donors.  PRRR does not sell, trade or rent the personal identification information of its donors to third parties. We do not collect personal identification information from any donor except when specifically and knowingly provided to us by such donors.  

The knowledge and consent of the donor, express or implied, are required for the collection, use or disclosure of personal information by PRRR, except where inappropriate.

PRRR will obtain the express consent of the individual for the purposes for which his or her personal information will be collected, used or disclosed. PRRR will state the purposes in a form that the individual can reasonably be expected to understand.

PRRR may use personal information to contact donors in a number of ways, including the following: 

  • personal communications with donors by a Board member, volunteer or employee;
  • direct mailings to donors with newsletters, requests for donations;
  • direct mailings to prospective donors;
  • contacting donors by telephone to thank them for their donation;
  • contacting donors by telephone to conduct donor research; and
  • trading or renting donor or other fundraising lists.
  • all of which are intended to advance the objectives of PRRR by encouraging individuals to make donations to support PRRR non-profit activities.

PRRR staff and volunteers involved in obtaining the consent of individuals to the collection, use or disclosure of their personal information will be appropriately trained with respect to this Policy. 

Opt-Out Option

A donor may withdraw his or her consent to collection, use or disclosure at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice.  PRRR shall inform the individual of the implications of such withdrawal of consent.

Obtaining Consent

In appropriate circumstances, PRRR will seek individual consent to the collection, use and disclosure of personal information by notifying individuals that they will be deemed to consent unless they expressly inform PRRR to the contrary. PRRR will ensure that the individual is entitled to use a convenient method for such notification to PRRR, including e-mail, voice-mail and other communication facilities that enable the client to communicate on a 24-hour basis with PRRR.   

Whatever mechanism is employed by PRRR to seek express consent, it will fairly and reasonably draw the individual's attention to the issue of consent.

On-line Donations

We would like our donors to be aware that donations made on-line are made through a third party vendor called Paypal and that we encourage our donors to read the privacy and security policy statements of the Paypal site to understand the risks associated with making on-line donations before submitting your donation. Any personal identification information submitted through such external sites is not owned by PRRR and therefore we cannot guarantee the privacy of your information as PRRR cannot be held responsible.

PRRR is not responsible or liable for any disputes or losses incurred by using a third party vendor to make on-line donations.
