Email sign-up

When you submit your email address to us, either through the email sign-up in the footer or through our Contact page, we will keep this on record. The purpose for these records is to keep you informed about the progress we are making with the girls in Ghana. You can choose unsubscribe at any time by clicking Unsubscribe at the bottom of the email. We will never sell or rent your email to third parties.

Collecting information

Like many websites, we gather information about how visitors use our website. In general, you can visit many of our web pages without telling us who you are or revealing any personal information about yourself. We may track your visit for trends and statistics, but you will remain anonymous unless you actively submit your personal data to us through the website. Once you choose to give us your personal information, you are not anonymous to us.

Donations that are made to Go Girl Ghana online, are processed through a separate payment gateway called Braintree. We do not have access to any of the personal or financial data needed to make a donation. How Braintree uses your information is based on their terms of services and policies and not ours so we encourage you to read those policies also.
