Privacy Policy

Channel Islands Restoration (CIR) has long followed a practice of not selling, renting, trading, or otherwise disclosing donor, volunteer, or site visitor information to any outside party. All information is volunteered by CIR’s visitors through signing up to receive updates via events, mail, electronic mail or making an online donation.

Individuals that register on our site will receive CIR’s regular communications as selected and detailed on the online sign-up form. All credit card and personal profile information provided to CIR through its Internet software partner, SquareSpace, is transmitted using SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption using PayPal as a payment gateway. SSL is a proven coding system that allows a browser to automatically encrypt data before it is sent. If you would like to review your personal information that is collected and/or request corrections, please contact us.

We choose our linked partners with great care; however, CIR is not responsible for the privacy practices of any linked site. Please read the privacy policy of each linked website. This privacy policy applies solely to information collected through the CIR website.

Children should always be supervised while online. CIR does not intend to collect personal information from children under the age of 13.
