Palestinian Heritage Foundation Privacy Policy

Last update 02-10-2002

At Palestine Heritage Foundation, we are committed to protecting your privacy. You can browse most of our site without giving us any information about yourself. But sometimes we do need information to provide services that you request, and this statement of privacy explains data collection and use in those situations.

Collecting your Personal Information
We will ask you when we need information that personally identifies you (personal information) or allows us to contact you. Generally, this information is requested when you are asked to register before registering for e-mail newsletters, joining a limited-access page. Personal information collected by palestineheritage.org often is limited to e-mail address, country or location, but may include other information like name and phone number when needed to provide a service you requested. 

Use of your Personal Information
We use your personal information for four primary purposes:

• To make the site easier for you to use by not making you enter your personal information more than once.
• To help you quickly find information on palestineheritage.org.
• To help us create and deliver content most relevant to you.
• To alert you to updated information and other new services from Palestinian Heritage Foundation

Security of your Personal Information
Palestineheritage.org strictly protects the security of your personal information and honors your choices for its intended use. We carefully protect your data from loss, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

Your personal information is never shared outside the Palestinian Heritage Foundation without your permission. Inside the palestineheritage.org, data is stored in password-controlled servers with limited access

Protection of Children’s Personal Information
The palestineheritage.org. site does not publish content that is targeted to children.

Use of Cookies
To ensure the best possible browsing experience, palestineheritage.org may collect aggregated site-visitation statistics using cookies. We do not track individuals' use of the site.

A "cookie" is a small piece of information that our Web site may provide to your browser while you are at our sites. The palestineheritage.org. web sites supply your browser with cookies that contain a unique identifier used to better understand Web site usage in the aggregate so that we know what areas of our site users prefer (e.g., based on the number of visits to those areas). These cookies are not linked to the personally identifiable information that you provide us elsewhere on the site.  This cookie is maintained by your browser and contains your identifier. This cookie is also used to authenticate your identity and provide you with access to areas of our Web site that are limited to registered users. You do not have to accept cookies from our site. Only the areas that require registration require cookies. Should you decide that you would like to register and login to special areas of the Web site and you have modified your browser settings not to accept cookies, you will need to re-set your browser to accept the cookies that we send it. Otherwise, we will not be able to let you participate in certain areas of the Web sites. Most browsers are defaulted to accept and maintain cookies.
