But first a note about children's privacy . . .

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If we learn that we have inadvertently obtained personal information on a child under the age of 13, that information will be deleted from our systems. New Global Adventures encourages parents to go online with their kids. Here are a few tips to help make a child's online experience safer:

  • Teach kids never to give out personal information, unless supervised by a parent or responsible adult. This includes their name, address, phone number, school, etc.
  • Know the sites your kids are visiting and which sites are appropriate.
  • Look for web site and other privacy policies. Know how your child's information is being treated.

What information does New Global Adventures collect?

In collecting your personal information, we aim to provide you with a more customized experience. This information lets us accept donations, and provide services and features that we think are more likely to meet your needs. Of course, users may be able to use our products or services or browse our Websites without providing any personal information, but once you give us this personal information, you are not anonymous to us, and we consider that you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information as described in this policy.

New Global Adventures collects the following types of information when you visit our Website(s) or you do business with us via any medium:

Personal Information:

This is information that may be used to identify you individually, including your name, shipping and billing address, phone number, email address, credit card information, and date of birth. We request this information from you on and off our Website(s), for example, when you call us, donate, register for our events, sign up for our newsletter, visit or subscribe to our Website(s), use our mobile or web applications or purchase an item or service.

From time to time, we may also request or obtain personal information about you and your interests through surveys, contest/sweepstakes entry forms, our mobile applications, social media websites, Affiliated Companies (defined below), or in other ways. You may always choose not to provide us with your personal information; however, this may limit our ability to provide you with specific products, services or information, or to offer you personalized content.

Nonpersonal information:

This is information that we do not associate with individuals, such as IP addresses (a number that can be used to identify your location and Internet Service Provider), the type of browser or device you are using, and aggregated information about user activities on our Website(s), including the URL from which you came to our Website(s) and the URLs that you visited on our Website(s).

Business Information:

If you apply to join our Affiliate Program, we may collect information about your business, including, without limitation, your (or your organization's) name, email address, street address, telephone number, tax identification number, and information about your Website (e.g., the URL, the number of unique users and page views, the demographics of your user base, etc.).

Information We Obtain from Other Sources:

We may collect information about you from other sources, including through interactive applications (such as mobile devices/applications and third-party services) and from commercially available sources (such as data aggregators and public databases). For example, if you access third-party services (such as Facebook Connect) through or in connection with our Website(s), we collect information available about you through those services, including, but not limited to, personal information as well as publicly observable data, such as activities on blogs, videos, and other online postings.

Cookies:

We also use a feature of your browser called a cookie to assign identification to your computer that may be placed by us or a third party with whom we partner. Cookies allow us to better understand your preferences and personalize the content on our Websites to give you a better overall shopping experience. The unique user ID contained within your cookie automatically identifies your computer—but not you—to our servers every time you visit our Website(s). Cookies by themselves cannot be used to find out the identity of any user but may be combined with identity information in our log files. You can turn off the cookie feature by using your browser preference options, but you may not be able to utilize some of the features or services on our Websites properly. Current versions of many Web browsers offer enhanced user controls for the placement and duration of cookies. Search for "cookies" under your Web browser's Help menu for more information on the cookie management features available to you.

Pixel Tags:

We may also collect information through the use of "pixel tags" on our Websites and in email messages, we may send to you that may be placed by us or a third party with whom we partner. Pixel tags, also known as "Web beacons," are tiny graphic files, not visible to the human eye, that are included in HTML-encoded email messages. When such a message is opened in an HTML-capable email program, the recipient's computer will access our server to retrieve the pixel tag file, allowing us to record and store, along with the recipient's email address, the date and time the recipient viewed the email message, the fact that the recipient's email program is capable of receiving HTML-encoded email, and other standard logging information. The pixel tag may also see or read cookies. New Global Adventures may use pixel tags in order to measure and understand traffic better, track visitor behavior to improve user experience, and for tracking promotional and marketing campaign response, among others. You can disable the pixel tag feature by changing your browser settings to omit images and disable Javascript, or there are commercial software packages available that can omit pixel tags and most advertisements.

Targeted Advertising; Do Not Track Signals:

Some web browsers offer a "Do Not Track" ("DNT") signal that is an HTTP header field indicating your preference regarding tracking or cross-site user tracking. Although we're currently unable to honor DNT signals, we do not collect personal information when you visit our Website(s) unless you provide such information to us. We also work with third parties that use tracking technologies on our Websites in order to provide tailored advertisements on our behalf and on behalf of other advertisers across the Internet. These companies may collect information about your activity on our sites and your interaction with our advertising and other communications, and use this information to determine which ads you see on third-party websites and applications. For more information about this practice and to understand your options, please visit www.youradchoices.com (U.S.), www.youradchoices.ca (Canada), or the Network Advertising Initiative at www.networkadvertising.org.

How does New Global Adventures use the information it collects?

We use your personal information in the following ways:

  • to fulfill your donation, registration entry, and product orders and communicate with you about your entry or orders,
  • to process your requests, contact you in response to customer service complaints you have submitted, address a problem affecting your use of a product or service, or verify information concerning a transaction,
  • to improve our products, services, and advertising, to personalize our Website(s), target advertising or promotions that may be of interest to you, or conduct business that we feel would be of interest to you,
  • to send important notices to you or tell you about new products or services,
