This website is owned and operated by the Orang Utan Republik Foundation (OURF) and OURF will be referred to as "we", "our" and "us" in this Internet Privacy Policy. By using this site, you agree to the Internet Privacy Policy of this website ("the website"), which is set out on this website page.

Personal Information
We recognize the importance of protecting the privacy of information collected about visitors to our website, in particular, information that is capable of identifying an individual ("personal information"). Personal information about visitors to our site is collected only when knowingly and voluntarily submitted by them. For example, we may need to collect such information to provide you with goods from our online store or to answer or forward any requests or inquiries. Any such data is securely stored in our online database and can only be accessed using a username and password by authorized OURF staff and volunteers.
Credit Card Details
Credit card details, including card numbers and expiry dates provided through our secure shopping site in connection with adoptions, donations, memberships and/or merchandise, cannot be viewed or accessed by OURF volunteers or staff. Credit card details provided via telephone or in writing are treated confidentially and are entered into OURF's secure shopping site by the OURF Administrator, who then shreds documentation once it has been successfully processed.
Website Statistics
From time to time, OURF collects and analyses aggregated website log files but this analysis does not permit us to identify details about individual visitors to our site.
Special Purposes
Personal information may be disclosed in special situations where we have reason to believe that doing so is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against anyone damaging, injuring, or interfering (intentionally or unintentionally) with our rights or property, users, or anyone else who could be harmed by such activities. Also, we may disclose personal information when we believe in good faith that the law requires disclosure. We do not engage third parties to provide you with goods or services on our behalf.
Security
We strive to ensure the security, integrity, and privacy of personal information submitted to our site, and we review and update our security measures in light of current technologies. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be totally secure.

Once we do receive your transmission, we will also make our best efforts to ensure its security on our systems.
