Website Visitors
Like most website operators, Heroic Girls Foundation collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Heroic Girls Foundation’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Heroic Girls Foundation’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Heroic Girls Foundation may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
Heroic Girls Foundation also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for users leaving comments on articles published. Heroic Girls 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 Heroic Girls Foundation website.
Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to Heroic Girls Foundation’s websites choose to interact with Heroic Girls Foundation in ways that require Heroic Girls Foundation to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Heroic Girls Foundation gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for the newsletter at Heroic Girls Foundation.org to provide a name and email address.
Those who engage in transactions with Heroic Girls Foundation — by making donations, for example — are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Heroic Girls Foundation collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Heroic Girls Foundation. Heroic Girls 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.
Aggregated Statistics
Heroic Girls Foundation may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its website. For instance, Heroic Girls Foundation may monitor the most popular pages and articles on the Heroic Girls Foundation.org site or use spam screened by the Akismet service to help identify spammers. Heroic Girls Foundation may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Heroic Girls Foundation does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Business Transfers
If Heroic Girls Foundation, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, or in the unlikely event that Heroic Girls 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 Heroic Girls Foundation may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.

This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by Heroic Girls Foundation and does not cover the use of cookies by any such advertisers.
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.
