We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any company before submitting your personal information

Collection of Personal Information

To serve you better and understand your needs and interests, srloveandcare.org collects, exports, and uses personal information with adequate notice and consent, along with required filings with data protection authorities, when applicable. For example, when you order products or services, apply for instant credit, request information, subscribe to marketing or support materials, register yourself or our subscriptions or products, enter contests or participate in surveys, or apply for Seva at srloveandcare.org, we will ask you to provide personal information to complete these transactions. The types of personal information you provide to us on these pages may include contact information such as your name, address, telephone number, and email address; financial information such as your credit card number; and other unique information such as user IDs and passwords, billing and transaction information, product and service preferences, contact preferences, educational and employment background, and Seva interest data. 

If you choose to use a tell-a-friend program on our website, we will ask you for your friend’s e-mail address and automatically send your friend a one-time e-mail inviting your friend to visit the website. srloveandcare.org uses and stores this information only for the purpose of sending this one-time e-mail and to provide tell-a-friend message blocking, where available.

In addition to the information you provide, shrimadrajchandramission.org may also collect information during your visit to an srlcusa.org website through our Automatic Data Collection Tools, which include Web beacons, cookies, embedded Web links, and other commonly used information-gathering tools. These tools collect certain standard information that your browser sends to our website such as your browser type and language, access times, and the address of the website from which you arrived at an srmd.org website. They may also collect information about your Internet Protocol (IP) address, clickstream behavior (i.e. the pages you view, the links you click, and other actions you take in connection with shrimadrajchandramission.org websites), and product information. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the Web, allowing Web servers to locate and identify your computer. Computers use IP addresses to communicate on the Internet, allowing users to browse and shop. SRLC may also use some of these Automatic Data Collection Tools in connection with certain emails sent by us and therefore may collect information using these tools when you open the email or click on a link contained in the email. 

The information srloveandcare.org collects from its commercial sources may be used along with the information shrimadrajchandramission.org collects when you visit websites of srlcusa.org . For example, we may compare the geographic information acquired from commercial sources with the IP address collected by Automatic Data Collection Tools to derive your general geographic area.

When collecting or transferring sensitive information such as credit card information we use a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. The personal information you provide us is stored on computer systems located in controlled facilities which have limited access. When we transmit highly confidential information (such as credit card numbers or passwords) over the internet, we protect it through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol. 

Credit card numbers are used only for processing payments through Payment collecting Gateways and are not used for other purposes. As part of real-time payment processing, SRLC subscribes to a fraud management service. This service gives you and SRLC an extra level of security to guard against credit card fraud and protect your financial data.
