Data Collection
Two types of information is collected:
1. One type is standard web server traffic pattern information. It encompasses general
traffic, website usage, and “stickiness” or length of stay information. It is collected and
stored in our log files. This type of information is shared externally only in an anonymously
compiled/aggregated basis and is never specific to any particular individual.
2. The second type is personal information. We never collect personally identifiable information (PII) from you unless you provided it to us knowingly and voluntarily. As an example, if you make a donation, we may collect information as follows: Your name, address, telephone number, email address and the amount of your donation. PII may be needed for specific optional online activities, such as donations to AVET Project, certain information requests and/or participation in some other interactive programs on our website. Please be advised that PII is collected, recorded and maintained by AVET Project when you elect to make a donation/contribution. Additional information may be collected if you choose to participate in an online activity so that we can adequately respond to your inquiry. Collected information will vary, depending on the request, but will often include your name, address, email address and telephone number.
