Squarespace needs the data to run this website, and to protect and improve its platform and services. Squarespace analyzes the data in a de-personalized form.

Kennerson Foundation also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on articles published. Kennerson Foundation only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.

Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Kennerson Foundation’s websites choose to interact with Kennerson Foundation in ways that require Kennerson Foundation to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Kennerson Foundation gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for membership at Kennerson Foundation.org to provide a username and email address.

Those who engage in transactions with Kennerson Foundation — by donating, for example — are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Kennerson Foundation collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Kennerson Foundation. Kennerson Foundation does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Business Transfers

If Kennerson Foundation, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, or in the unlikely event that Kennerson Foundation goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of Kennerson Foundation may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.

Comments

Comments and other content submitted via the Akismet anti-spam service are saved on our servers unless they were marked as spam positive, in which case we store them long enough to use them to improve the service to avoid future false positives.

Although most changes are likely to be minor, Kennerson Foundation may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and at Kennerson Foundation’s sole discretion. Kennerson Foundation encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. If you have a KennersonFoundation.org account, you should also check your blog’s dashboard for alerts to these changes. Your continued use of this site after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.

 

Protection of Information

Kennerson Foundation discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that

(i) need to know that information in order to process it on Kennerson Foundation’s behalf or to provide services available at Kennerson Foundation’s websites, and

(ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others.

Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Kennerson Foundation’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Kennerson Foundation will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone.

Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Kennerson Foundation discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Kennerson Foundation believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Kennerson Foundation, third parties or the public at large.

If you are a registered user of an Kennerson Foundation website and have supplied your email address, Kennerson Foundation may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Kennerson Foundation and our services. We primarily use our website to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum.

If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Kennerson Foundation takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Kennerson Foundation sends a newsletter and occasional nonprofit marketing updates that we believe will be useful to individuals that subscribe to our website or blog, download a whitepaper, or request updates. Users may remove themselves from this mailing list by following the link provided in every email. We will not sell, distribute or lease your personal information to third parties unless we have your permission or are required by law.
