PRIVACY POLICY
Last Generation is a non-violent civil resistance group fighting for a just, livable future. To achieve this goal, we need to communicate with you.
You have the right to control how we gather and use your information. This privacy policy will help you exercise that control if you want to, while still making sure we can communicate broadly, personally and effectively in service of our goal.
INFORMATION WE COLLECT
We collect information that you voluntarily provide to us or that is automatically collected when you interact with our services. We may ask you for personal information in a variety of ways, including website forms, social media platforms, over the phone and in person.
Information we collect includes your contact information, information about your donations to Last Generation, and information about events you’ve registered for and attended.
There are a range of reasons why we may ask you for this information, including: to process a donation or registration; to fulfill your subscription to an e-newsletter; to allow you to send letters or to sign a petition via our online action platform; to invite you to events; or to provide other information about Last Generation which might interest you. We may also contact you by mail, email or phone about opportunities to donate in support of our work.
You can always choose to withhold information.
HOW WE HANDLE YOUR INFORMATION
We keep any information you provide to us in strict confidence. Only people who specifically need access to your information will have access to it – for example, callers will not know your phone number unless they are trying to call specifically you, and they will not know information like your email address and last name that they do not need to know to call you.
When you provide contact information to us for one purpose, we may contact you using that information for other parts of our work. For example, if you sign a petition, we may email you newsletters about the campaign’s progress and how you can help.
We sometimes work with third-party service providers in order to communicate with you, or to process your donations. These organizations will keep your information confidential as part of their user agreements with us.
Some of the servers we store information on are located outside of Canada. By providing us with your information, you consent to us transferring information across national borders for processing and storage purposes in accordance with this policy. Your rights to access, correct and delete your personal information are not affected by it being stored on servers located in other countries.
SOCIAL NETWORKING
We show social networking sharing buttons and widgets from social media services such as Facebook and Instagram on our website to enable you to easily share Last Generation news with friends. These social networking sharing buttons and widgets come from web servers which may track your behaviour on our website and may combine this with other information about you originating from other websites. You can install a browser add-on like “Disconnect” for Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox to disable them.
UPDATING YOUR CONSENT
If you tell us that you don’t want to receive certain types of communications, we will update our records on the spot so you do not receive them.
Upon reasonable request and notice, you may view and have corrections made to the personal information we hold about you, subject to any legal or contractual restrictions. You can also ask us to delete the information we have recorded about you.
However you reach out for us, we’ll do our best to accommodate your wishes, but an easy way to get in touch with us is outreach@lastgenerationcanada.ca.
