privacy policy

INFORMATION COLLECTION AND USE
KeepMilkRaw.org collects information at different points on our website. The two main points at which we collect information are when a user signs our petition, joins our discussion group or our blog, and when they email us.

KeepMilkRaw.org is the sole owner of any information collected and we will not sell, share, or rent this information with any other company or individual in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement.

SIGNING OUR PETITION
When you sign our petition, you will be asked for your name, email address, as well as certain demographic information. The information you provide when you sign a petition is stored on our servers but is the exclusive property of KeepMilkRaw.org.

There is one exception to this rule, however, and that is when the petition is presented to its designated recipient. At such time, the recipient will receive a disaggregated list of names with some or all of the information they provided when they signed the petition. This is because a petition is far more likely to be effective when its recipient receives a list of signatures rather than simply an aggregated number of signatures. No individual or organization other than the designated recipient will receive this disaggregated information.

Exception: KeepMilkRaw.org may disclose user or signer information when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury or interference, intentionally or unintentionally, to KeepMilkRaw.org's rights or property, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities.

COOKIES
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user’s hard drive containing information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site.

LOG FILES
We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track user’s movement, gather broad demographic information for aggregate use, and prevent duplicate signatures.

LINKS
This website contains links to external sites. Please be aware that KeepMilkRaw.org is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every website that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by KeepMilkRaw.org on our own server.

FORUM, BLOG
All members of KeepMilkRaw.org can participate in our discussion group. The contents of this group is publicly accessible. From time to time, KeepMilkRaw.org may use a part or whole of posts on this discussion group for publicity purposes. In doing so, however, we will not identify by name or KeepMilkRaw.org ID the user who has made the post.

CONTENT
While we do everything possible to monitor the contents of discussion group postings on our site, we cannot be held liable for any offense, damage, injury or other legal infraction attributed to such content.

SITE AND SERVICE UPDATES
We may send petition signers site and service announcement updates. Petition signers are able to un-subscribe from service announcements, which contain important information about KeepMilkRaw.org. Signers, however, will only receive these announcements if they indicate their desire to do so when signing a petition.

NOTIFICATION OF CHANGES
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on our Home page so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under circumstances, if any, we disclose it. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected.
