Save the Bees USA is committed to protecting your privacy. The following describes what information we collect on the website at savethebeesusa.org, we use it and how we will protect your personal privacy within our website(s).
To fully understand your rights, we encourage you to read this Privacy Policy. Save the Bees USA reserves the right at any time and without notice to change this Privacy Policy simply by posting such changes on our websites. Any such change will be effective immediately upon posting.
Save the Bees USA collects information that you voluntarily submit, such as information you provide when you contact us for any reason by telephone, fax, mail or email. For example, we collect information you provide when you use the forms on our websites to become a member. We also collect information you submit when you make a donation to Save the Bees USA or become a member of the Save the Bees USA through our websites unless you check a box to tell us that you prefer to make the donation anonymously. Information we collect, directly or indirectly through our websites includes personally identifiable information (for example, name, address, and email, telephone number), and other information you provide about yourself.
The Save the Bees USA also collects potentially personally identifying information that is collected by Google Analytics. The analytics feature the Save the Bees USA has implemented is based on Display Advertising (e.g., Remarketing, Google Display Network Impression Reporting, the DoubleClick Campaign Manager integration, or Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting). Visitors can opt-out of Google Analytics for Display Advertising and customer Display Network ads using Ads Settings (external link). The Save the Bees USA uses the Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting feature to identify trends in the usage of its website which may be published in reports for internal use.
The Save the Bees USA will not facilitate the merging of personally identifiable information with non-personally identifiable information collected through any Google advertising product or feature unless we have robust notice of, and the user’s prior affirmative (i.e., opt-in) consent to, that merger.
At any time, visitors may choose to opt-out of Google Analytics tracking with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on (external link).
Save the Bees USA may also collect aggregate information about use of its website such as what pages and sections are most popular with users. However, this information does not include personably identifiable information. Our Web server does not automatically recognize and collect your domain name or email address.
Save the Bees USA recognizes the particular importance of protecting privacy for children under the age of 13. The Save the Bees USA does not knowingly or intentionally collect or solicit personally identifiable information from users under the age of 13 through its website. Nor is any part or our website designed with the purpose of attracting users under the age of 13. If a user under the age of 13 has provided us with personal information without parental or guardian consent, we ask that the parent or guardian contact us by emailing [email protected]. We will remove the user’s information and unsubscribe the user from any of our electronic marketing lists.
We collect an IP address from all visitors to our website. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the Internet. We use IP addresses to help diagnose problems with our server, administer our website, analyze trends, track users’ movement, gather broad demographic information for aggregate use to improve the site, and deliver customized, personalized content. We use Google Analytics search and analysis tools. Read Google Analytics’ privacy policy (see Section 7 of external link). For more general information read Google Analytics’ terms of service (external link). IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Save the Bees USA uses the contact information and other information we collect to help us communicate with you. We also use this information to shape and carry out our programmatic, outreach and other activities. For example, we may use this information to determine the publications, emails, Web content, and other information that may be of interest to you. Save the Bees USA may contact you with information or to ask you to support our work. We may also use aggregate information about website usage to shape website content and accessibility.

A cookie is information stored on your computer that is used for record keeping. Use of cookies makes Web-surfing easier by performing certain functions such as saving your passwords, saving your personal preferences regarding your use of a particular website, and ensuring you do not see the same ad repeatedly. Many consider the use of cookies to be an industry standard. Our sites may use cookies to enhance your experience while using our websites. Our websites do not currently track, collect, or distribute personal information not entered by the user. Our websites may generate non-identifying site usage data such as the number of visits to our websites.

All sensitive data, such as credit card and other financial information, provided to Save the Bees USA is collected on secure forms and transmitted using industry-standard SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption. SSL is a proven coding system that lets your browser automatically encrypt, or scramble, data before you send it to us. Credit card information is retained only as long as necessary to complete the donation or purchase request of the user. We also protect account information by placing it on a secure portion of our website that is only accessible by certain qualified employees of Save the Bees USA. Unfortunately, however, no data transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of such information.
