We also use these technologies to collect and store information when you interact with services we offer to our partners, such as advertising services or Sudan Relief Fund features that may appear on other sites. We use the Google Analytics product that helps businesses and site owners analyze the traffic to their websites and apps. When used in conjunction with our advertising, such as those using the DoubleClick cookie, Google Analytics information is linked by the Sudan Relief Fund.

Transparency and choice
People have different privacy concerns. Our goal is to be clear about what information we collect, so that you can make meaningful choices about how it is used. You may set your browser to block all cookies, including cookies associated with our services, or to indicate when a cookie is being set by us.
Updating your personal information
When updating your personal information, we may ask you to verify your identity before we can act on your request. Where we can provide information access and correction, we will do so for free, except where it would require a disproportionate effort. We aim to maintain our services in a manner that protects information from accidental or malicious destruction.
Information we share
Sudan Relief Fund honors the trust of our donors, who have provided us with personal information. Donor information includes, but is not limited to, the donor’s name, contact information, and donation history.
On occasion, Sudan Relief Fund makes our list of both offline and online donors available to other organizations to mail. These organizations then make their list available to Sudan Relief Fund to mail. It is our hope that you find information from these groups interesting and helpful. This process is carefully controlled and donor information is never provided directly to another organization. Instead, the list is mailed on behalf of these organizations through a third-party vendor. These mutual list partnerships assist Sudan Relief Fund in growing our activities, programs, marketing, and revenue, which allows Sudan Relief Fund to better fulfill our mission. If you would like to be excluded from this process, please contact us at info@sudanreliefund.com, and we’ll make sure your name is not included in our mailing list sharing activities.
Other than described above, we do not share personal information with companies or organizations outside of Sudan Relief Fund unless one of the following circumstances applies:
With your consent
We will share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of Sudan Relief Fund when we have your consent to do so.
For external processing
We provide personal information to our affiliates or other trusted businesses or persons to process it for us, based on our instructions and in compliance with our Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
For legal reasons
We will share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of Sudan Relief Fund if we have a good faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to:
- meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request.
• enforce applicable Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations.
• detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues.
• protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of Sudan Relief Fund, our users or the public as required or permitted by law.

- We encrypt many of our services using SSL
• We review our information collection, storage and processing practices, including physical security measures, to guard against unauthorized access to systems
• We restrict access to personal information to Sudan Relief Fund employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to process it for us, and who are subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations and may be disciplined or terminated
Compliance and cooperation with regulatory authorities
We regularly review our compliance with our Privacy Policy. We also adhere to several self regulatory frameworks. When we receive formal written complaints, we will contact the person who made the complaint to follow up. We work with the appropriate regulatory authorities, including local data protection authorities, to resolve any complaints regarding the transfer of personal data that we cannot resolve with our users directly.
