Last Modified: March 26, 2018
The Peregrine Fund (the “Company”, “we” and “us”) is committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) outlines our privacy practices with respect to our Global Raptor Impact Network (“GRIN”).
SCOPE OF POLICY
The Company maintains a number of services to provide access to GRIN, including a mobile application (the ”Application”) and the GRIN website (the “Website”, together with the Application, the “Services”). This Policy applies to information that we collect through our Services and, together with the Application end user license agreement (the “EULA”) and the Website terms of use (the “Terms of use”), as applicable, govern our collection of personal information on the Services. This policy sets out the basis on which any personal information we collect from you, or that you provide to us, will be processed by us. Please read the following carefully to understand our views and practices regarding your personal information and how we will treat it.
Information We May Collect from You
We may collect and process the following information about you:
Cookies
Our Website may use cookies to distinguish you from other users of the Website. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you use the Application or browse our Website and also allows us to improve our Services. Most browsers will tell you how to stop accepting new cookies, how to be notified when you receive a new cookie, and how to disable existing cookies. Please note, however, that without cookies you may not be able to take full advantage of all of the features of the Website.
Storing your Personal Information
Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password that enables you to access certain parts of our Website, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone. Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure. Although we try protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to the Website or through the Application; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your personal information, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to try to prevent unauthorized access. We may collect and store personal information on your Device, or such devices you may use to access the Website, using application data caches and browser web storage and other technology. Certain Services may include user biographies or other forum features. Ensure when using these features that you do not submit any personal information that you do not want to be seen, collected or used by other users.
Use of Personal Information
We use information held about you in the following ways:
Anonymized or Aggregated Information
We may derive data from your personal information that is not personally identifiable to you. For example, we may aggregate certain information regarding use of the Services so that your usage of the Services is not discernable from the aggregate usage of the Services. We may use and share, without limitation, with third parties any information that we derive from your personal information that is not personally identifiable to you.
Disclosure of Personal Information
We may disclose personal information that we collect or you provide as described in this Policy: We may also disclose your personal information:
Choice and Consent
It is always your choice whether or not to provide us with personal information. If you do provide personal information to the Services, you are giving your express and unambiguous consent to the processing of your personal information as described in this Policy. If you choose not to provide the requested information you may not be able to access certain features on our Services or request information. You may access, change, modify or delete your information as described below.
Communications and Opt-out
We may periodically email you announcements related to your use of our Services. Additionally, we may send you marketing or promotional communications, but you may opt out of receiving subsequent marketing or promotional communications. All opt-out requests can be made by emailing us at: GRIN@peregrinefund.org or writing us at The Peregrine Fund, 5668 West Flying Hawk Lane, Boise, Idaho 83709 Attn: GRIN. Certain communications from us may also contain an unsubscribe link for you to opt-out from receiving future similar communications. If you access any of our Sites through a mobile device, you may adjust the settings on your mobile device to allow or prevent the sharing of location information. For example, you can disable location sharing on your mobile device to prevent sharing your location information with us, or only disable “Bluetooth” to prevent the sharing of information collected via nearby Bluetooth proximity beacons. Please note that if you disable the sharing of location information, you may be unable to access some features of our Services that are designed for mobile devices. Accessing and Changing your Personal Information You can review and change certain personal information associated with your account through either the Application or your account profile on the Website, as applicable.
Third-Party Sites
Our Website may, from time to time, contain links to and from the websites of our partner networks, advertisers and affiliates (including, but not limited to, websites on which the Services are advertised). If you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that these websites and any services that may be accessible through them have their own privacy policies and that we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies or for any personal information that may be collected through these websites or services, such as contact and location data. We encourage you to check these policies before you submit any personal information to these websites or use these services.
International Users
If you are interacting with the Services from outside the United States and provide us with any personal information, please note, in order for us to provide the Services or otherwise communicate with you as set forth in this Policy, it may be necessary for your personal information to be transferred, stored, and processed within the United States. The data protection laws in the United States may not be as comprehensive as those in your country. Your use of the Services or your submission of any personal information to us will constitute your consent to the transfer of your personal information outside of your home country, which may have very different data protection and privacy rules and regulations than in your home country. If you do not consent to this transfer of your information, you must not access or use the Services. If you are an EU resident and desire to revoke your consent to this processing or request the deletion of your personal information, please email your request to us at GRIN@peregrinefund.org or otherwise contact us according to the instructions below. Please note that the Company may still keep certain personal information to the extent permitted by applicable law, but the Company will cease the continued processing of your personal information and remove any other personal information from its records.
Changes to the Policy
Any changes we may make to our privacy policy in the future will be posted on this page and, where appropriate, notified to you by notifying you of a change when you next start the Application or log onto the Website. The new terms may be displayed on-screen and you may be required to read and accept them to continue your use of the Services.

The Services are not directed to children under 13 years of age, and children under 13 may not use or access the Services under any circumstances. We do not knowingly solicit or collect personal information from children under 13 years of age.
