Privacy Notice

At Jack Russell Terrier Rescue Ontario (JRTRO) the privacy and security of our clients are of paramount importance. We understand your concern over the privacy of any personal information you supply to us, and your need to control this information.

Our overall policy is one of collecting only the information necessary to communicate with our clients about the services we provide, and/or the information required to process an adoption or relinquishment, or any other service we provide. We do not collect any other information, nor share any of the information we collect with anyone.

Anonymous Use of our Website
You are free to visit our website, and access any information contained therein without revealing any information about yourself. Any identifying information collected in our web traffic logs is standard anonymous, domain-based information only -- and may also include information such as your browser type, the referring site/URL, the time and duration of your visit, and the pages accessed. At no time will you be personally identifiable by us, and all web server log information is used for anonymous, aggregated traffic and site activity analysis.

Personal Information Collected For Processing of Secondary Services
When you take part in one of our secondary services, such as fundraising events, polls, forums and contests, we may ask for a limited amount of personal information that will allow us to identify you in order to communicate with you effectively about the services you are interested or participate in.

At no time will your personal information be sold, rented, or revealed in any way to a 3rd party. We will not use the information you provide to us for any purpose other than to communicate with you about our secondary services in the most efficient way possible.

Personal Information Collected For Processing of Primary Services
When you fill out one of our adoption or relinquishment applications online, we ask for the standard and necessary information required to identify and contact you, as well as process the application to determine if we can further provide our primary services to you. This may include information about you, your dog, your home, your family and contact information for any references required.

When you apply for one of our primary services, we automatically add your application information to our database of clients in order to communicate with you in the future about the primary services we offer, and other secondary services that you may be interested in. We will not communicate with you if you choose to disable this option -- and we provide a mechanism for you to opt out of this communication in the future, if you so desire.

At no time will your personal information nor purchase information (including credit card information) be sold, rented, or revealed in any way to a 3rd party. We will not use the information you provide to us for any purpose other than to communicate with you about our products in the most efficient way possible.

The Security of Our Technology
JRTRO makes every reasonable effort to ensure the absolute security of all of the systems that comprise our website, database, and e-commerce mechanisms -- as well as the workstations that access these systems for administration and analysis.

We do not utilize bulk mailing technology that reveals your e-mail address to others being mailed to (for instance, during the bulk mailing of a newsletter).

Definition of "Third Party"
For the sake of clarity, a "third party" is defined as anyone not a part of, nor directly affiliated with JRTRO. Those directly affiliated include service providers (who, in providing services such the hosting and processing mechanisms of our websites have access to the information contained within their own systems) and resellers and affiliate sale partners (who collect customer and transaction information on our behalf).

In no case will anyone directly affiliated with JRTRO use the information revealed to them for any purpose other than to provide the information to JRTRO for the use outlined in the preceding sections above.

For Further Information 
If you have any further questions regarding the information JRTRO collects, or how we use it, then please feel free to contact us.
