Privacy Policy
The Blogger Bakeoff campaign and Breadline Africa are committed to protecting the privacy and security of visitors to our website. Outlined below is our online privacy policy for information collected through our website and email lists. If you have questions about these policies, we encourage you to talk to us by email: ed-online[at]breadlineafrica.org.za
Credit Card Security
Breadline Africa is grateful for the donations that help us continue our work. It is very important to us that your personal information remains secure. When you donate to Breadline Africa online, your credit card information is secured by a reputable security company (Thawte). Also, your credit card number is used only for that particular transaction and is not stored. You will see the "closed" lock symbol in the lower part of your browser screen (often times it is yellow as well) when you are on our secure donation pages. You will also notice in your web site address bar that the domain name starts with an "https" on those donation pages. This means that information entered on those pages is encrypted for your security. This actually makes it more secure than using a credit card in physical form at a store for example. If you have any questions regarding the security of your credit card donation online, please email ed-online[at]breadlineafrica.org.za.
