Privacy Policy


Last updated: May 29, 2019

The Rosebud Scholarship Fund operates a website at rosebudfund.org. It is Rosebud Scholarship Fund’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website. If you have questions about deleting or correcting your personal data please contact our support team at support@rosebudfund.org.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Rosebud Scholarship Fund collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Rosebud Scholarship Fund’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Rosebud Scholarship Fund’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Rosebud Scholarship Fund may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Rosebud Scholarship Fund also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on articles published. Rosebud Scholarship Fund only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.


Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Rosebud Scholarship Fund’s websites choose to interact with Rosebud Scholarship Fund in ways that require Rosebud Scholarship Fund to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that MediaCause gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who choose to subscribe to updates at rosebudfund.org for their email address.

Those who engage in transactions with Rosebud Scholarship Fund — to submit a donation, for example — are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Rosebud Scholarship Fund collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Rosebud Scholarship Fund. Rosebud Scholarship Fund does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. Visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

Rosebud Scholarship Fund may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its website. For instance, Rosebud Scholarship Fund may monitor the most popular pages and articles on the rosebudfund.org site or use spam screened by a service provider to help identify spammers. Rosebud Scholarship Fund may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Rosebud Scholarship Fund does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Business Transfers

If Rosebud Scholarship Fund, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, or in the unlikely event that Rosebud Scholarship Fund closes, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of Rosebud Scholarship Fund may continue to use your personal information as set forth in this policy.


Ads

Any ads appearing on our website may be delivered to users by advertising partners, who may set cookies. These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by Rosebud Scholarship Fund and does not cover the use of cookies by any such advertisers.

Comments

Comments and other content submitted are saved on our servers unless they were marked as spam positive, in which case we store them long enough to use them to improve the service to avoid future false positives.

Privacy Policy Changes

Although most changes are likely to be minor, Rosebud Scholarship Fund may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and at Rosebud Scholarship Fund’s sole discretion. Rosebud Scholarship Fund encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. Your continued use of this site after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.

Protection of Information

Rosebud Scholarship Fund discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that:

(i) need to know that information in order to process it on Rosebud Scholarship Fund’s behalf or to provide services available at Rosebud Scholarship Fund’s websites, and

(ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others.

Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Rosebud Scholarship Fund’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Rosebud Scholarship Fund will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone.

Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Rosebud Scholarship Fund discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Rosebud Scholarship Fund believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Rosebud Scholarship Fund, third parties or the public at large.

If you are a registered user of an Rosebud Scholarship Fund website and have supplied your email address, Rosebud Scholarship Fund may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Rosebud Scholarship Fund and our services. We primarily use our website to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum.

If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Rosebud Scholarship Fund takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.


Email Communication

Rosebud Scholarship Fund may eventually send a newsletter and occasional nonprofit marketing updates that we believe will be useful to individuals that subscribe to our website or blog, download a whitepaper, or request updates. Users may remove themselves from this mailing list by following the link provided in every email. We will not sell, distribute or lease your personal information to third parties unless we have your permission or are required by law.

Cookies

A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. Rosebud Scholarship Fund uses cookies to help Rosebud Scholarship Fund identify and track visitors, their usage of Rosebud Scholarship Fund website, and their website access preferences.

Rosebud Scholarship Fund visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using Rosebud Scholarship Fund’s websites, with the drawback that certain features of Rosebud Scholarship Fund’s websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
