DATA COLLECTION
PERSONAL INFORMATION
We do not collect personally identifiable information from you unless you provide it to us voluntarily and knowingly. If you make a donation, register for an event or register for our newsletter, for example, we may collect your name, mailing address, telephone number, email address, and credit card information.
Generally, our uses of Personal Information collected online include, without limitation, responding to your inquiry to CBL, sending surveys seeking feedback, enabling you to make a donation or purchase something, or providing you with information, such as sending marketing communications and newsletters.
CBL will retain your Personal Information to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. CBL will establish minimum and maximum retention periods based upon the type of information collected (i.e., sensitivity), the intended purposes and as otherwise required by law.
We use high-grade encryption and security protocols (Secure Socket Layer-SSL) when processing financial transactions. This method is the industry standard security protocol, which makes it difficult for anyone to intercept the information you send us. As per CBL, data is stored on password-protected servers. Our staff is educated about the importance of safeguarding your information. However, such precautions do not guarantee that our web site is invulnerable to all security breaks. CBL makes no warranty, guarantee or representation that the use of our web site is protected from viruses, security threats or other vulnerabilities and that your information will always be secure.
COOKIES & INDIRECTLY COLLECTED INFORMATION
Carolina Bear Lodge may use cookies to enhance your experience while using our site. A “cookie” is a small piece of data that is sent to your browser from CBL’s web server and is stored on your computer’s hard drive. The site also may use cookies or other technologies to track the specific pages viewed by visitors on the site or to target specific content that might be of interest to you. However, if you would prefer not to receive cookies, you can alter the configuration of your browser to refuse cookies.

AGGREGATE INFORMATION
When you visit our site, we automatically collect Aggregate Information about your visit. Collecting this information helps us to improve our site to enhance your experience while on our site, communications and our work.
CBL also may use Aggregate Information for internal purposes, such as tracking demographic data and providing targeted content to make our site more useful to our visitors. The gathering of this Aggregate Information may be accomplished by the use of cookies or web beacons by CBL and its third party service providers. In particular, CBL will collect an IP Address from all visitors to our site. An IP Address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the Internet. The Center may share Aggregate Information with its content providers, sponsors, service providers or other third parties to advance the goals of CBL and otherwise in fulfillment of our mission. We use IP addresses to help diagnose problems with our server, administer our site, analyze trends, track users’ movement on our site, gather broad demographic information for aggregate use in order for us to improve our site, and deliver customized, personalized content. IP addresses, however, are not linked to Personal Information. CBL also may use a unique assigned number located with our site’s URL to determine the website from which you navigated to get to our site. While this number may not be apparent to you, it does not contain your Personal Information.
