The Information We Collect
This Privacy Policy applies to information collected by or submitted to Safe Haven Foundation, a nonprofit organization, through the website. The website provides information about Safe Haven Foundation and allows users to begin the grant application process online. The information collected on the website falls into two generic categories: (1) information voluntarily submitted; and (2) information gathered via electronic means.
Information Voluntarily Submitted
Safe Haven Foundation only gathers “personally identifiable information” (information that relates to an identified individual) if you voluntarily submit such information to us through registration forms, feedback forms and profile update forms. The types of personally identifiable information voluntarily submitted on our website include your name, title, department, address, city, state/province, zip/postal code, country, phone and fax numbers, email addresses, and URLs. You can always choose not to provide personally identifiable information, but if you do not provide such information, you may not be able to take advantage of the features of Safe Haven Foundation website (i.e., receipt of information from safe haven Foundation). We use your personally identifiable information in the following ways:
To supply news and information regarding Safe Haven Foundation and the research programs it sponsors.
To respond to your questions or comments sent to us via email or postal mail.

Information Gathered via Electronic Means

We register your Internet Protocol address when you visit the website to help diagnose possible technical problems and to administer Web website quality. We do not use Internet Protocol addresses or click-stream data to personally identify users.
Log files (files listing every request made to the server) are used to statistically determine which areas of our website users prefer and to better prepare future site content based on the interests of our users. We do not track the usage patterns of individual users, but rather the overall performance of each page on the site.

Cookies allow the website site to recognize you and, among other things, load your page more quickly. If you find this objectionable, you can set your browser to refuse cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent.

Only those employees of Safe Haven Foundation and/or our business partners who need the information to perform a specific job are granted access to personally identifiable information.
