Privacy Policy & APF Donor Bill of Rights

The Library Foundation of Jacksonville (“LFJ”), located in Jacksonville, Florida, is aware that donors (“Donors”) and users of the website (“Users”) may wish to be informed about how any personal data and financial information (“Data”) collected either offline, or online via the Internet to LFJ’s website (“Website”), is treated. Accordingly, we have developed this Privacy Policy (“Policy”) to explain all our reasonable precautions to keep your Data secure.


This Website may include hyperlinks to other websites that are not operated or controlled by us (“Third Party Sites”). We are not responsible for the content or the privacy practices of Third Party Sites.


This Policy may be updated, and we therefore invite you to consult this Policy from time to time in order to familiarize yourself with any changes.


The terms of this Policy are without prejudice to any contractual terms you may enter into with us, which will take precedence over the terms of this Policy.


Donor Information and Gift Transactions


Information about Donors and prospective Donors, including physical addresses, telephone numbers, and email addresses; funds at LFJ; or the nature or amount of gifts to LFJ shall not be disclosed, disseminated, shared or sold, with the exception that LFJ may publish the names of individual Donors or funds in LFJ’s or Jacksonville Public Library’s annual report and other publications, unless otherwise requested not to do so by the Donor. (In the case of memorial gifts, LFJ may provide the name of Donor to members of the immediate family unless the donor has requested anonymity.)


Please be aware that the Internet is generally not regarded as a secure environment, and that Data sent via the Internet can be accessed by unauthorized third parties, potentially leading to disclosures, changes in content or technical failures. Data sent via the Internet may be transmitted across international borders even though both sender and receiver are in the same country. Therefore, your Data may be forwarded to a country with a lower data protection level than exists in your country of residence.

We accept no responsibility or liability for the security of your Data while in transit via the Internet to us. In order to protect your privacy, we would like to remind you that you may choose another means of communication with us, where you deem it appropriate.


In specific situations, we may provide an encrypted communication transfer for your Data, but this will be specifically indicated.


Processing of Data by Us and Use for Marketing Purposes


We do not collect personally identifying Data from this Website except when specifically and knowingly provided by you. In the latter case, subject to any applicable local laws, we may use your personal information to market opportunities, products and services we believe might be of interest to you.


Where possible, our Web server automatically recognizes the visitor’s domain name, but not the visitor’s e-mail address.

We collect only the domain name but not the e-mail address of visitors to our Web page, the e-mail addresses of those who communicate with us via e-mail, aggregate information on what pages users access or visit, user-specific information on what pages a user accesses or visits, information volunteered by user, such as survey information and/or site registrations, name and address, telephone number, fax number, payment information (e.g., credit card number and billing address).


The information we collect is used to improve the content of our Website, customize the content and/or layout of our Website, and notify visitors about updates to our Website.


We may use session specific cookies or web bugs to obtain non-personal information Data regarding your use of this Website including IP address and session number. This Data will be collected primarily for purposes of administering or compiling demographic information, and of monitoring usage and performance of this Website. We may also use such cookies to facilitate your movement within this Website.

Within our organization your personal Data will be transmitted and stored in a protected environment (e.g., firewalls). We undertake to take all reasonable steps in order not to allow your personal Data to be seen by any third parties other than those which have been engaged by us to provide services to you. We will only disclose your Data to other third parties if compelled to do so for legal or regulatory purposes.


We may store Data in locations other than your country of residence. In such cases we will endeavor to ensure that there are adequate levels of protection for your Data taking into account applicable legal and regulatory requirements, including those relating to banking secrecy and data protection.
