Privacy Policy

 

Introduction

The FLR Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we collect it, and how that information is used.
 

FLR Protects Your Information

For the community-at-large:

Fierce Love Rescue (FLR) uses appropriate safeguards to ensure the security and privacy of the information you provide.  We do not share your personal information with companies, organizations, or individuals outside of FLR.  We do not post pictures or details about you without your permission, e.g., we would ask you for permission to post a story about you and your newly adopted animal after the adoption was complete.

For members of our FLR family:

FLR reserves the right to share pictures of our fosters and volunteers.  Pictures that are taken at FLR events or of our fosters and their foster animals may be shared on the FLR website as well as other social media.  If a foster or volunteer posts about their foster animal or a volunteer activity, these posts may also be shared on FLR website and other social media. 
 

How Information Is Collected And Used

FLR uses the information we collect about you to answer your inquiries, process your application for adopting, fostering, and/or volunteering, and to help you surrender an animal. 
 

 

FLR collects information about you during each interaction we have with you.  For example, when you submit an Adoption Application through our website, you provide us with your name, your contact information, characteristics of your home environment, contact information for each of your references, pet history, veterinarian history, family members living in your home, etc.  We also collect information during Home Visits, phone conversations, emails, Facebook posts, etc. and update your record in our database accordingly.
 
When you interact with us, regardless of the media used, you are providing information voluntarily and intentionally. 
 
FLR also collects information about how our website is used.  For example, we look at which pages have the most visitors, how many new visitors we had on an individual day, the average length of time people spend browsing our site, and so on.  We use this information to update our website and improve the information we offer on our Facebook page.
