Once we receive your transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems. At no point are credit card details stored on our servers, encrypted or as plain text.

From time to time, we agree with other like-minded organizations to write to you on their behalf, for the mutual benefit of both. At no time will we distribute you personnel details such as your email address to any third party.

  13. The accuracy of your individual identifying information is important to us. We are working on ways to make it easier for you to review and correct the information that Elephant Nature Foundation maintains about you. In the meantime, if you change email address or any of the other information we hold is inaccurate or out of date, please contact us immediately.

Whew! Now that this is all taken care of, let's head back to our regularly scheduled program. Have you checked out our Photo Gallery yet? There are some great pictures in there of eles, and we all probably need a little pick-me-up right about now.
