Privacy Policy for World Vision Report

World Vision Report has created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to your privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for this site (World Vision Report).

World Vision Report assures you that the identity of all who contact us through this Web site is kept confidential: we do not rent, sell, or exchange our mailing lists and we will always strive to be responsible in our management and truthful in our advertising.

As with most other Internet sites, our Web servers utilize “cookies” to track a user’s activity within our site as well as record the IP address of each visitor to this site. A cookie is a small data file that is stored on your computer. A cookie contains a unique identifying feature that allows our computer to recognize you when you return to the World Vision Report site. The recorded IP address tells us which domain you visited from (for instance, aol.com), but not your e-mail address or other private and personal information.

We use the information we record to help diagnose problems with our servers, to administer this Web site more effectively, and to gather broad demographic information about what countries and domains our visitors hail from and their behavior on our site.

In some cases our site uses securely encrypted response forms for visitors who choose to use these forms to provide or request information. We collect your willingly submitted contact information (such as your e-mail address). Contact information from these response forms is used to respond to your inquiries and verify content that you share with us to be posted on the site. Your contact information may also be used to get in touch with you when necessary in order to resolve customer service issues or questions. Users may readily opt-out of receiving future communications; see the   "opt-out" and  "modifying your information" sections below.

Those who choose to register through various "guestbook" or “comment” features on our site may choose to give us certain contact information (such as their e-mail address). These features may also request optional demographic information (such as zip code, age, or income level). Unless you "opt out," we may use this contact information to send you additional information about World Vision Report. Your voluntarily provided contact information may also be used to contact you when necessary in order to resolve customer service issues or questions. You may readily opt-out of receiving future communications; see the  "opt-out" and "modifying your information" sections below.

Our online surveys may ask visitors for contact information (such as their e-mail address) as well as a variety of demographic and practical questions. We may use contact data from our surveys to send the user information about World Vision Report. The user's contact information may also be used to contact the visitor when necessary. Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings; see the  "opt-out" and   "modifying your information" sections below.
