Privacy Policy

Thank you for visiting our website. While here, you might provide your name and email address — to sign up for occasional updates or to contact us.

We deeply care, like you do, about your personal info. Maintaining the highest ethics is very important to us. Our “bottom line” is this: We will not give away, sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any other person, Internet site, organization — or even friendly tree-planting aliens from another solar system! Ever. For any reason.

Personal data collected at whatcommilliontrees.org and how it will be used…

Contact Form:
The info submitted by you in our Contact form will be used for no other purpose than to reply to you. If you email us directly instead of using our Contact form, same thing — we still will never sell or give away your info.

Newsletter/announcement subscription:
The info submitted by you to subscribe will be used for no other purpose. To opt out at any time, click the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any newsletter or announcement. To assess the effectiveness of our newsletter emails, we will periodically run reports that tell us who has or has not opened our newsletter emails and if they have clicked links in them. This data will only be used by us and only to make sure we’re sending you the information you want.

Analytics info:
This website uses Google Analytics, which transmits website traffic data to Google servers in the United States. Google Analytics does not identify individual users or associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. We use reports by Google Analytics to better understand the overall patterns of this website’s traffic and use.

Embedded content from other websites:
Our posts/articles may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behave exactly as if you visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who we will share your data with:
Nobody. Ever. (Please read the bold second paragraph above.) 🙂

Data security:
We value your trust in providing your personal information. This website is encrypted (thus the https://…). Very strong passwords and/or two-factor authentication are used on all devices and servers that administer this website. But remember that no method of transmission online or electronic storage is 100% secure and reliable. So we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If a data breach somehow occurs, either potential or real, you will be notified within 48 hours.

Your rights over your data:
At any time, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you (i.e. any data you have provided). You can also request that we erase that personal data. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Changes to this Privacy Policy:
We are committed to complying with all applicable federal and state laws relating to personal information, as well as the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation. Because such laws change frequently, this privacy policy will be updated as needed. You can always find the most recent version here.
