Welcome to the Global Safe Haven Network. We want to you know that your privacy is important to us! We realize that maintaining the trust of our users is critical to the success of our business, and this Privacy Policy is intended to make you feel as comfortable as possible visiting our website using our services.

If you feel that GSHN is not abiding by its posted privacy policy, you should contact our executive director by e-mail at

For purposes of the Privacy Policy, "Personal Information" shall be deemed to include any and all information that would allow someone to identify or contact you, including, for example, your full name, address, telephone number, or email address. Personal Information does not include general, demographic or aggregated information that, by itself, does not permit the identification of individual persons.

This Privacy Policy is deemed to be incorporated as a part of our Terms of Service Agreement and by using the Member services offered by GSHN, you agree to be bound by its terms and conditions. You also certify that you your command and knowledge of English is sufficient to understand the terms and conditions set forth herein.

Please note that this Privacy Policy only addresses activities from our servers. Other sites (including those to which we may link) and other service providers may have their own policies, which we do not control, and thus are not addressed or controlled by this policy.

You provide certain Personal Information to us when you: (a) register/enroll to become a Member and use the Member services ("Services"), (b) provide and/or transmit personal information to GSHN in connection with the Services. Use the services, or (c) order products and services from us and (e) send email messages, submit forms or send other information to us.

Please note that in connection with the Services, GSHN might use a feature of your browser called a "cookie" to assign a unique number that automatically identifies your computer when you visit the site. A cookie is a piece of data stored on your hard drive containing information about you. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site. Once you close your browser, the cookie simply terminates and is not saved on you computer disk drive. For instance, by setting a cookie on our site, you would not have to log in a password more than once, thereby saving time while on our site. If you reject the cookie, you may still use our site. The only drawback to this is that you will be limited in some areas of our site, or may have to enter passwords or identifying information more than once. We also collect other information of a non-personal nature, such as IP addresses, browser types, domain names, software versions, and access times. This information is only used for our internal purposes (such as to improve the site or to customize content).

GSHN collects all of the Personal Information. GSHN will only use your Personal Information to provide you with travel alerts, content and services that are tailored specifically to the profile you provide. We do not sell, rent or trade your Personal Information to anyone. When you place an order, we request only the information that we need to ensure your order is processed correctly. However, please note that we may disclose aggregated information about our users but that information contains no Personal Information.

Although your privacy is very important to us, due to legal rules beyond our control, we cannot fully ensure that your private communications and other Personal Information will not be disclosed to third parties. For example, we may be forced to disclose information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances, or third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications. Additionally, in the unlikely event we need to investigate or resolve possible problems or inquiries, we can, and you authorize us to, disclose any information about you to law enforcement or other government officials as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate.

Please note that if you provide any information on your own or directly to parties who provide service to our Website or any other sites you encounter on the Internet (even if these sites are branded with our branding), different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the Personal Information you disclose to them. We encourage you to investigate and ask questions before disclosing information to third parties.

If Personal Information changes, or if you no longer desire our service, we will provide a way for you to correct, update or remove your Personal Information. This can usually be done at the account management section of the website by choosing any of the update links next to your personal information. In addition, our support department can update your e-mail address (but no other personal information).

GSHN will take all reasonable steps to protect our Member's information. When Members submit sensitive information via our Website, that information is protected both online and off-line.

We have established and maintain reasonable security procedures to protect the confidentiality, security and integrity of your personal information. We use encryption, Secure Socket Layers, and other technical measures (such as off-site backup, security testing, and password protection), and we implement off-line efforts to further protect this information, including limiting employee access to personal information and updating our employees regarding our security practices and privacy policies. Please recognize, however, that "perfect security" does not exist on the Internet.

We hope this policy clarifies our procedures regarding your Personal Information. We reserve the right to make non-significant changes to our Privacy Policy that generally will not affect our use of your Personal Information.

If you have any questions about the security at our website or facilities, you can send an email to .

Effective as of March 3rd, 2006.
