What this privacy policy covers

This Privacy Policy sets out the approach which the New Zealand Committee for UNICEF (UNICEF Aotearoa) will take in relation to the handling of personal information in accordance with the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020 (the Privacy Act). It includes information on how UNICEF Aotearoa collects, holds, uses and discloses your personal information and the steps we take to protect that information.

It also covers how you may access and seek the correction of the personal information that UNICEF Aotearoa New Zealand collects and holds about you. Please read this Privacy Policy before using this website, or submitting your personal information to us. By using this website, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy is subject to, and must be read in conjunction with, our Terms and Conditions.

We may update or revise this Privacy Policy from time to time.

Terminology

In this Privacy Policy, the terms “UNICEF Aotearoa”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to The New Zealand Committee for UNICEF, and the terms “you” and “your” refer to you as a website user or donor/supporter.

“Personal information” means any information about an identifiable individual and may include, for example, your name, email address, account user name, mailing address, phone number, date of birth, contact preferences, donation-related information, any information you post to our website, online activity logs related to our website, IP addresses, cookies, device, browser and operating system identifiers, internet tags, location and navigational data provided by your connection, server addresses, top-level domain names, dates and time of visits to the website, pages accessed and documents downloaded, interactions with tools and advertising, previous websites visited and the type of browser used.

Information we gather

UNICEF Aotearoa will collect personal information where the information is reasonably necessary for one or more of our functions or activities or where the collection of information is otherwise permitted by law.

UNICEF Aotearoa will collect personal information when you contact us, make an inquiry, make a donation, purchase our products or otherwise provide us with your personal information. This could include when you subscribe to our e-newsletter, log in to your account, fill out contact forms or send email, post content to our website, social me dia pages, or blog, or call us. We don’t record phone calls but we may keep a summary of our conversations with you.

Billing Information

Should you sign up to be a recurring donor or donate a one-off amount, we require your billing information in order to process the transaction. UNICEF Aotearoa does collect your billing information if you donate, which, in addition to the information listed above, may also include your credit card details, and other information that is necessary in order to process the transaction. Under no circumstance do we store any of your sensitive billing details.

We can access in Stripe.com (see below) the last 4 digits of your credit card number, its expiry date, and credit card type, so that we may identify that card used in the future. We do not store any other billing information. This information is safely discarded after your transaction has been processed.

If your donation is auto-renewing, a recurring subscription will be created at our payment gateway, Stripe.com. Stripe.com will store your billing information on their secure payment gateway for as long as necessary to carry out the terms of your subscription. Should you cancel your subscription, your billing information will be immediately removed by Stripe.com. All transactions are processed over an industry standard SSL/TLS connection, with a minimum of 128-bit encryption.

Computer and network

UNICEF Aotearoa automatically receives and records information on our server logs from your browser, including your IP address, cookies, and the pages you request. We also collect other user information as part of our analytics software, in order to improve the service and personalise your website experience. We may link such information to any personally identifiable information you submit while on this site.

An IP address is a unique number assigned by Internet Service Providers to all devices used to access the internet. Web page servers automatically log the IP addresses of visitors to their website.

A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier that is sent to your browser from a website's computers and stored on your computer's hard drive.

You can configure your browser to accept all cookies, reject all cookies, or notify you when a cookie is set. If you reject all cookies, you may not be able to use all of our services or to take full advantage of all offerings.

IP addresses, cookie identifiers and information collected via cookies may not, on their own, identify an individual. However, in certain circumstances, it could be used to identify an individual. For example, an IP address, cookie identifier or information collected via a cookie could be personal information when combined with other information we collect when you visit the website. Where this is the case, that information will be used and disclosed in accordance with the Privacy Act.
