The Retail Action Project respects the privacy of our online visitors and is committed to protecting the privacy and security of the users of our site.

This privacy policy advises you about how we protect your personal information. Please read this policy carefully. We may need to change this policy from time to time in order to address new issues and reflect changes on our site. All policy changes will be posted here.

We will not sell, trade, or give e-mail addresses to companies or other organizations for the purposes of solicitation or sales, but may on occasion share the list with organizations whose missions are consistent with ours, have the same privacy standards, and who wish to share information likely to be of interest to those who subscribe to our list. We collect only a limited amount of information on usage at our web site. This information is used to improve the content and design of the Site. We collect the IP addresses of visitors, time of access, browser type, and the web page visited. We collect this information on an aggregate basis only. For example, we track which pages are most popular among visitors as a whole. This information is used for internal review only and not shared with third parties. We do not track information on which pages an individual visitor might view during a visit to our site.

We also collect information volunteered by the visitors, such as survey information and contact information. We do not track this information on an individual basis, or use visitor email addresses unless a visitor asks for a reply. We keep and continue to correspond with visitors who request to be included in our communications. However, should you send us an e-mail with questions or comments, we may use your personal information in order to respond to your questions or comments. We may also keep your comments or questions for future reference.

The only exception to this policy is that we will release specific information about you or your account to comply with any valid legal process such as a search warrant, subpoena, statute or court order.

We do not ever sell, trade or share any information regarding individuals who donate money to the Retail Action Project.

Although we strive to protect our users' privacy, we cannot guarantee the security of information you post. You disclose such information at your own risk.

Any questions or concerns about our privacy policy should be directed via email to rap@goles.org.
