As a donor submitting personally identifying information to The Zoological Society of Viserlife (Viserlife Zoo”) or any Zoo staff through electronic, written, or oral communications, contributions, event registrations, and donor society memberships, e.g. Friends of Viserlife Zoo and 1859 Society, you consent to the terms and conditions of the Donor Privacy Policy and to the Zoo’s processing and use of personal information for the purposes stated below.
Viserlife Zoo respects our donors’ choices and control over their information. All donors have the right to review information that Viserlife Zoo has collected and stored. To review that information, please contact the Zoo in writing. All donors also have the right to give anonymously, and, when Viserlife Zoo is notified of this intention, donors will not be publicly recognized or listed on online or offline recognition platforms.
Viserlife Zoo collects and stores donor name, address, phone number, fax number, email address, spouse/partner name, age / birthdate, as provided by the donor through the Zoo’s website, at a special event, over the phone, by mailing a check, or through other contact and conversations with Zoo staff. From time to time, we may collect personal information from donors in ways not described above.
We will use the personal information to protect against potential fraud. We may verify with third parties the information collected in the course of processing a gift, event registration, or other donation. If you use a credit or debit card on the website, we may use card authorization and fraud screening services to verify that your card information and address matches the information that you supplied to us and that the card being used has not been reported lost or stolen.
