Privacy Policy

At Biinaagami, accessible from https://www.biinaagami.org/, one of our main priorities is the privacy of our visitors. This Privacy Policy document contains types of information that is collected and recorded by Biinaagami and how we use it.

If you have additional questions or require more information about our Privacy Policy, do not hesitate to contact us.

This Privacy Policy applies only to our online activities and is valid for visitors to our website with regards to the information that they shared and/or collected by Biinaagami. This policy is not applicable to any information collected offline or via channels other than this website.

By using our website, you hereby consent to our Privacy Policy and agree to its terms.

The personal information that you are asked to provide, and the reasons why you are asked to provide it, will be made clear to you at the point we ask you to provide your personal information.

If you contact us directly, we may receive additional information about you such as your name, email address, phone number, the contents of the message and/or attachments you may send us, and any other information you may choose to provide.

If you choose to Join Us, we may ask for your contact information, including items such as name, company name, address, email address, and telephone number.

We use the information we collect in various ways, including to:

• Provide, operate, and maintain our website
• Improve and expand our website
• Understand and analyze how you use our website
• Develop new features, and functionality
• Communicate with you directly  to provide you with updates and other information relating to the website
• Send you emails if you join our mailing list

• Users who complete the Join Us form will provide consent to have the information published on the Great Lakes Community page.

This is information that cannot identify you, such as:

• System Information. The type of operating system you are using (e.g. Windows, Mac OS), the domain name of your Internet Service Provider (ISP) (e.g. Bell, Rogers, etc.) and the type of browser you are using (e.g. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, etc.). Browser information (i.e. the URL of the web page you were just on; the IP address of the computer you are using and your domain type) is automatically recorded as part of transmitting information over the Internet. We may use it to help us display information in the best format for you. 
• Cookies. A cookie is a small text file we place in your browser’s files. No one else can read this file. Cookies allow our server to recognize you when you return to our site, so you don’t have to re-register and so we can retain any preferences you may have given us. If you do not wish to receive cookies, most browsers allow you to be alerted when a cookie is sent to your computer, so you can decide whether to accept it. 
• Statistical Reports. We may develop summary reports to help us and our advertisers better understand our audience and provide content and advertisements that are more likely to be of interest to you. For example, we may report total number of visitors to our site in general or to specific pages, average length of visit, etc. No identifying data about individuals would be reported. 
• “Clickstream” Data. During your visit to our sites, we may record choices you have made and use this to provide more customized content or advertising. The data does not identify you and is not retained after your visit. This is sometimes called “clickstream” data. If we do market research studies or polls in any area that will only be reported in aggregate, this will be indicated.

Another part of our priority is adding protection for children while using the internet. We encourage parents and guardians to observe, participate in, and/or monitor and guide their online activity.

Biinaagami does not knowingly collect any Personal Identifiable Information from children under the age of 13. If you think that your child provided this kind of information on our website, we strongly encourage you to contact us immediately and we will do our best efforts to promptly remove such information from our records.

You always have the option to instruct us not to use your name, address, e-mail address, etc. beyond providing you with the product, information or service you requested. See “Contact Us” below.

E-mail communications will always include an “Unsubscribe” option.

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. Thus, we advise you to review this page periodically for any changes. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. These changes are effective immediately, after they are posted on this page.

If you have any questions or suggestions about our Privacy Policy, do not hesitate to contact us.
