Information We Collect About You and How We Collect It

Information You Provide to Us

We do not collect personally identifiable information (“PII”) about you unless you voluntarily provide it. Examples of PII which an individual may provide to DoGoodery are that individual’s first and last name, title, physical address, telephone number, or e-mail address. The PII we collect on or through our Website may include:

  • Information that you provide in order to subscribe to the Website newsletter. We may also collect records and copies of any other information you provide to use in your communications with us. We may also ask you for information when you report a problem with our Website. This information may be provided directly by you, or automatically; for example, when you call us, we may receive your telephone number.
  • Your responses to surveys that we might ask you to complete for research purposes. 
  • Your search queries on the Website. 

Information We Collect Through Automatic Data Collection Technologies

In addition to the above, we collect certain anonymous (non-personally identifiable) information (“non-PII”) to help us improve the Website and all other DoGoodery websites and to evaluate the access and use of DoGoodery websites’ materials and the impact of DoGoodery websites on the worldwide community. As you navigate through and interact with our Website, we may use automatic data collection technologies to collect certain non-PII about your equipment, browsing actions, and patterns, including:

  • Details of your visits to our Website, including traffic data, location data, logs, and other communication data and the resources that you access and use on the Website.
  • Information about your computer and internet connection, including your IP address, operating system, and browser type.

The technologies we use for this automatic data collection may include:

  • Cookies. We also use “cookies” to improve your DoGoodery web experience and to collect anonymous information about how you use DoGoodery websites. A cookie is a small file placed on the hard drive of your computer. You may refuse to accept browser cookies as well as delete cookies by activating the appropriate settings on your browser. Visiting and surfing on our DoGoodery websites is possible without cookies. If your browser is configured not to accept cookies, you will still be able to access DoGoodery websites and their content.
  • Flash Cookies. Certain features of our Website may use local stored objects (or Flash cookies) to collect and store information about your preferences and navigation to, from, and on our Website. Flash cookies are not managed by the same browser settings as are used for browser cookies. 
  • Web Beacons. Pages of our Website [and our e-mails] may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs) that permit the Company, for example, to count users who have visited those pages or [opened an email] and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity). 
  • Web Analysis Tools. We may use other web analysis tools that are built into the DoGoodery websites to measure and collect anonymous session information.

We also may use these automatic data collection technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services (behavioral tracking). We use the Google Analytics web analytics service, which collects certain data about this website’s traffic via a DoubleClick cookie and the standard Google Analytics implementation.  The specific Google Analytics feature we use is Google Analytics Demographics and Site Behavior.  Google Analytics enables DoGoodery to use information such as user age, location, and interests from Google’s Interest-based advertising or 3rd-party audience data to improve services on the DoGoodery  websites and to help us understand the aggregate demographics of our users.  We cannot and do not obtain personally-identifiable information from Google Analytics.  DoGoodery websites do not and will not merge any personally-identifiable information with non-personally identifiable information unless you have been given notice of and have given prior affirmative (i.e. opt-in) consent to that merger.  Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to DoGoodery websites is restricted by the Google Privacy Policy. You can prevent Google Analytics from recognizing you on return visits to this website by disabling (opting out) the Google Analytics cookie. You can also view and change the currently available settings for Google Ads. You can see how Google uses information from sites or apps that use their services here. 

When we report information about the Website, and other DoGoodery websites’, access, use, and impact, we report aggregate, non-personally identifiable data. Occasionally, we report quoted feedback from users. We do not attribute feedback to specific individuals unless we obtain permission to use that person’s name along with the feedback.

This is a human-readable summary of (and not a substitute for) the license, which can be read hereDisclaimer

DoGoodery Interpretation of "Non-Commercial"

Non-commercial use means that users may not sell, profit from, or commercialize DoGoodery materials that fall within this Creative Commons License (DoGoodery reserves the right to create and distribute proprietary materials that may or may not be used or distributed by third parties) or works derived from them. The guidelines below are intended to help users determine whether or not their use of DoGoodery materials would be permitted by DG under the “non-commercial” restriction. Note that there are additional requirements (attribution and share alike) spelled out in our license.

  1. Commercialization is prohibited. Users may not directly sell or profit from DoGoodery materials or from works derived from DoGoodery materials that fall within this creative commons license.

    Example: A commercial education or training business may not offer courses based on DoGoodery materials if educators or students pay a fee for those courses and the business intends to profit as a result.

  2. Determination of commercial vs. non-commercial purpose is based on the use, not the user. Materials may be used by individuals, institutions, governments, corporations, or other businesses, whether for-profit or non-profit so long as the use itself is not a commercialization of the materials or a use that is directly intended to generate sales or profit.

    Example: A corporation may use DoGoodery materials for professional development and training purposes.

  3. Incidental charges to recover reasonable reproduction costs may be permitted. Recovery of nominal actual costs for copying small amounts (under 1000 copies) of DoGoodery content on paper, etc. is allowed for educational purposes so long as there is no profit motive and so long as the intended use of the copies is in compliance with all license terms. Educators & students must be informed that the materials are freely available on the DoGoodery Website and that their purchase of copied materials is optional.

    Example: An institution in a remote area has limited internet access and limited network infrastructure on campus, and a professor offers to print copies of DoGoodery materials relevant to her course. The professor may recover the costs of printing the copies.

If you have questions about acceptable use of DoGoodery website materials, please contact us.
