Privacy Policy

Grus Justice Project

The Grus Justice Project (“GJP”) may update this Privacy Policy at any time. Should we revise how we handle, gather, or share personal data, those updates will be posted here. We encourage you to check this page periodically to stay current on our privacy practices. You can find the effective date of the most recent update at the bottom of this page.

We ask that you read this document carefully to understand how GJP manages your data. By using grusjusticeproject.org, you agree to the practices outlined in this policy. You are free to withdraw your consent at any time by requesting the removal of your data.

 

1. Information We Collect

To provide our services, GJP gathers both “personal information” (data that identifies you) and “non-personal information” (anonymous usage data).

Personal Information: We collect your name and email address when you sign up for our newsletter, use our contact form, purchase a ticket, or contribute a donation.

Transaction Details: Although we utilize secure third-party processors for ticket purchases and donations, GJP retains transaction records, excluding full credit card details, to issue receipts and track contributions.

Cookies: We may employ cookies to save your preferences and enhance your overall browsing experience on the site.

Technical Data: We collect basic information regarding your device and browser type to help us optimize the platform for all users.

 

2. How We Use Your Information

GJP uses the data we collect to support our non-profit mission and improve our services. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Sending out newsletters and promotional materials.
  • Processing ticket purchases and issuing receipts and ticket confirmations.
  • Processing donations and issuing tax acknowledgments.
  • Replying to questions sent via our contact forms.
  • Analyzing user trends to improve our educational content and site performance.

 

3. Information Sharing

GJP will never sell your personal data. We only share information in the following specific cases:

Service Providers: Data is shared with trusted third parties who assist us with essential functions like email distribution and payment processing.

Legal Obligations: We may disclose information if required by law, such as in response to a court order, subpoena, or to remain in compliance with Canadian regulations.

 

4. Data Security and Retention

We use industry-standard security measures to safeguard your data against unauthorized access or misuse. While we strive to protect your information, no digital system is entirely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute safety.

Your data is kept only as long as necessary to fulfill its original purpose, meet legal requirements, or resolve disputes.

 

5. Your Rights and Preferences

You have control over how your information is handled:

Email Communications: You can opt-in to our updates and may choose to stop receiving them at any time by using the "unsubscribe" link found in our emails.

Access and Corrections: You have the right to ask for a copy of the personal information we have on file for you by reaching out to us.

Data Deletion: You may request that we delete your data. We will remove your information from our active systems, though some records may persist in backups for legal or administrative record-keeping.

 

6. International Data Transfers

GJP may utilize service providers (such as payment gateways) based in the United States or other international locations. By using our site, you acknowledge that your data may be processed or stored outside of Canada, where privacy laws may differ from those in your home jurisdiction.

 

7. Resolving Concerns

We are dedicated to addressing any concerns regarding your privacy. If you have questions about how your data is used, please contact us through our website. If we need to notify you regarding a security matter involving your data, we will contact you via email.
