They are not authorized by us to use any personal information for their own benefit. Please note that if you consent to additional uses of your information, we may use your information in a manner consistent with that consent.

If you choose to share content with the NABU community through our Services, the shared content may be publicly accessible. If you do not want to share content publicly, you can use your privacy settings to limit sharing. You may delete some content that you shared, but some interactive shared content may persist in association with your registered user account, even after your account is terminated. Therefore, you should keep this in mind when participating in shared content activity through our Services.

Please be advised that “non-personal information” (i.e., information that does not personally identify you, such as aggregated and/or anonymized data) may be shared with any number of parties and may be used in any manner consistent with applicable law.

OTHER WEBSITES AND SOCIAL NETWORKING SERVICES:

As a convenience to you, we may provide links to third-party websites, apps, or services from within the Website. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these third-party sites, and by providing a link, we are not endorsing or promoting such third-party sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of every third-party site or service that you visit or use, including those third parties with whom you interact through our Services.

The Website may also integrate with social networking services. We do not control such services and are not liable for the manner in which they operate. While we may provide you with the ability to use such services in connection with our Website, we are doing so merely as an accommodation and, like you, are relying upon those third-party services to operate properly and fairly. You should be aware that personal information which you voluntarily include and transmit online in a publicly accessible blog, social network, or otherwise online may be viewed and used by others.

FUNDRAISING AND MARKETING OUTREACH:

As is customary in the nonprofit world, we may send requests to support the NABU library to people who have expressed interest in the library’s programs or services. In order to ensure the most efficient use of our resources, we retain third-party vendors to make sure the contact information we have for our users is current and to determine which users are most likely to provide support. We do not rent or sell your information but we do share names and postal addresses with other nonprofit cultural organizations. Sharing this information with other reputable charitable organizations is the most cost-effective way to find new users, share program offerings, and identify new donors. We may also use information collected about you to work with third-party marketing vendors to show you ads on third-party websites about library services. We may also use your information to improve our marketing outreach by working with third-party vendors to build models to identify and reach new users online.

COOKIES AND TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES:

We or our third-party service providers may store some information on your device or device hard drive as a “cookie” or similar type of file (such as clear gifs, web beacons, tags, and similar technologies that work on mobile devices) to collect data related to usage of the Website and Services. “Cookies” are pieces of information that may be placed on your computer by a website for the purpose of collecting data to facilitate and enhance your communication and interaction with that website.

DATA SECURITY:

We maintain reasonable security procedures to help protect against loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of the information you provide to us. Please note that no data transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be 100% secure due to the inherent open nature of the Internet. As a result, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you disclose or transmit to us online and cannot be responsible for the theft, destruction, or inadvertent disclosure of your information.

DATA RETENTION:


We will retain your information for as long as your account or inquiry is active or as needed to provide you with our Services, and for a reasonable time thereafter in accordance with our standard procedures or as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our agreements.

INFORMATION RELATING TO CHILDREN:

NABU has developed its Services to be an enjoyable experience for users of all ages, including those under 16 (“Children” or “Child”). However, the Services are designed so that only parents or guardians may enter individually identifiable information. Accordingly, Children may not provide individually identifiable information through the Services, and we do not knowingly collect individually identifiable information from Children. By providing individually identifiable information to us, you represent that you are 18 years of age or older, or are 16 years of age or older and have valid parental consent to do so.

We take Children’s privacy seriously and encourage parents to take an active role in protecting their Children’s privacy and online experience at all times. You are expected to keep your account settings secure from Child access, and not to share login information for or related to your account with your Children. Please discuss safe privacy practices with your Children so that they will better understand how to use the Services as intended. If we learn that we have collected or received individually identifiable information from a Child without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information. If you believe we might have any individually identifiable information from or about a Child, please contact us at info@nabu.org.

NABU is committed to compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”), a U.S. federal law designed to protect Children online. We may collect and store persistent identifiers (such as cookies or IP addresses) from Children without parental consent for the purpose of supporting the internal operations of the Services or as otherwise permitted under COPPA. Except as otherwise outlined in this Privacy Policy, we do not collect personal information from users of the Services.

YOUR EUROPEAN PRIVACY RIGHTS:

IF YOU ARE SITUATED IN THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA, SWITZERLAND, OR THE UNITED KINGDOM, THIS SECTION APPLIES TO OUR COLLECTION, USE, AND DISCLOSURE OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AND ADDITIONAL RIGHTS YOU HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

Legal Basis:

We will only use your personal data, as that term is defined under the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your personal data in the following circumstances:

Where we need to perform the contract we are about to enter into or have entered into with you.

Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.

Where you have consented to a certain use of your personal data.

Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.

To the extent permitted under applicable laws, we will also process, transfer, disclose, and preserve personal data when we have a good faith belief that doing so is necessary.

Data controller:

NABU is the data controller of all personal data collected through our Services. To contact us, please see the section titled Contact.

If you are situated in the EEA, Switzerland, or the UK and have any complaints regarding our privacy practices, you have the right to make a complaint at any time to your local supervisory authority. We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach your supervisory authority, so please contact us in the first instance. If you have a complaint, please contact our privacy manager can be contacted here: info@nabu.org.

Provision of personal data and failure to provide personal data:

Where we need to collect personal data by law or under the terms of a contract we have with you, and you fail to provide that data when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you (for example, to provide you with our services). In this case, we may not be able to provide certain services to you.

Collection of personal data from third-party sources:

We do not collect personal data about you through public sources. We may obtain personal data and other information about you through our third-party partners who help us provide our products and services to you.

Withdrawing your consent:

If we are relying on your consent to process your personal data, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at info@nabu.org.

Data Transfer:

We may transfer personal data from the EEA, Switzerland, and the UK to the USA and other countries, some of which have not been determined by the European Commission or the UK data protection authorities to have an adequate level of data protection. Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe. For more information about how we transfer your data, please contact us at info@nabu.org.

Use of your personal data for marketing purposes:

We strive to provide you with choices regarding certain personal data uses, particularly around marketing and advertising:

Promotional offers from us: We may use your personal data to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products, services and offers may be relevant for you (we call this marketing). You will receive marketing communications from us if you have requested information from us or used our services and, in each case, you have consented to our use of your personal data for marketing purposes.

Data Subject Rights:

If you are situated in the EEA, Switzerland, or the UK, under the GDPR, as a data subject, you have the right to:

Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.

Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.

Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully, or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.

Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.

Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.

Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.

Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.

To exercise your rights under the GDPR, please contact us at info@nabu.org. Please note that in order for you to assert these rights, we may need to verify your identity to confirm your right to access your personal data. This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. In order to verify your identity, we may need to gather more personal data from you than we currently have.

TRANSMISSION OF INFORMATION TO OTHER COUNTRIES

We are located in the United States. If you submit personal information to us, your personal information may be processed in a foreign country where privacy laws may be less stringent than the laws in your country. By submitting your personal information to us you agree to the transfer, storage, and processing of your personal information in a country other than your country of residence, including, but not necessarily limited to, the United States.
