Online Privacy Policy

Our online privacy policy is outlined below. These policies apply to all People & Planet websites and e-mail lists, including GoodWork.ca, PlanetVolunteer.net and Planetfriendly.net.

Gathering and Use of Information

1. We will not collect personally identifiable information from you, other than what you supply to us on a voluntary basis.

2. In order to participate in some activities, you might be asked to provide some personally identifiable information. This could include:

  • subscribing to e-mail lists
  • posting jobs, events or other listings on our website
  • online surveys or feedback forms
  • making a payment or donation

3. People & Planet will not willfully disclose your personal information collected from any of our websites to any third party, without your explicit permission, except in the following cases:

  • Information that you post to publicly viewable portions of our website, such as the calendar or job listings, is viewable publicly and could also appear in other websites or publications.
  • If required to comply with the laws of Canada, we may be required to share information with law enforcement or other government bodies.
  • Our e-mail lists are stored on separate servers (currently Yahoo!; for details please see 4., below).

4. Our e-mail lists may be hosted by separate services which have their own privacy policies. We have inspected their privacy policies to our own satisfaction. For example, the GoodWork e-mail lists are currently hosted with Yahoo! Groups. Subscribers do not need to open an account with Yahoo! Groups. The only information that we forward to Yahoo! Groups is the e-mail address itself. Yahoo! Groups privacy policy can be found on their website. We reserve the right to switch to other list hosts/services if the need arises.

5. Our website uses "cookies" only to register the language preference of the visitor. We do not store this information or share it with others.

We reserve the right to amend this privacy policy in the future if needed.

If you have any privacy or other concerns about our services, please contact us.
