What Information Do We Collect?

A. Personal Information You Disclose to Us

We collect Personal Information that you voluntarily provide to us when you express an interest in obtaining information about us or our Services, when you participate in activities on the Services, or otherwise when you contact us.

We do not process sensitive information, such as your political affiliations, religious beliefs, race or ethnicity, sexual orientation, or biometric data.

We may collect data necessary to process your payment if you make a donation. This data may include your payment instrument number, and the security code associated with your payment instrument. All payment data is stored by Network for Good (tax ID 68-0480736). You may find their privacy policy here:  https://www.bonterratech.com/legal/privacy-policy(Opens in a New Window).

B. Information Automatically Collected

We automatically collect certain non-personally identifiable information when you visit, use, or navigate our Services. This information does not reveal your specific identity (like your name or contact information) but may include device and usage information, such as your Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser and device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, device name, country, location, information about how and when you use our Services, and other technical information. This information is primarily needed to maintain the security and operation of our Services, and for our internal analytics and reporting purposes.

Third-Party Cookies

Our website may include embedded videos from YouTube, a service provided by Google LLC. We use YouTube’s privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com) to limit tracking. This means:

  • YouTube may set cookies or collect data (such as your IP address, device information, and viewing behavior) only if you interact with the video.
  • If you're signed into a Google account, your viewing activity may be linked to that account.
  • These videos are subject to Google's Privacy Policy(Opens in a New Window).

How Do We Process Your Information?

We process your information to provide, improve, and administer our Services, communicate with you, for security and fraud prevention, and to comply with law.

If you shared Personal Information like your name or email address, we collect, store, and use this information primarily for the purposes it was submitted, including:

  • to fulfill your donation and communicate with you about your donation
  • to provide information about our work we think would interest you
  • to protect our Services as part of our efforts to keep our Services safe and secure
  • to save or protect an individual’s vital interest in order to prevent harm

With Whom Do We Share Your Personal Information?

We only share Personal Information with third parties that you have voluntarily provided to us, and we primarily use it for the purposes it was intended. When you donate online, we share information with trusted third-party vendors in order to process your donation. These vendors help us host our donor information database and process online payments in a secure and safe manner. We retain your information for as long as your account is active or necessary to provide you with our Services.

How Do We Keep Your Information Safe?

We take the security of any financial or other Personal Information you send us very seriously. We have implemented appropriate security measures on our website, including industry-standard Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption, so that any information you provide to us remains protected and private.

In addition, all third-party vendors we work with to manage our donor information database and process payments meet all industry standards for security, including compliance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). All donor data is encrypted at rest and in transit and is required to be kept confidential.

Despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your Personal Information, transmission of Personal Information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.

Do We Collect Information From Minors?

We do not knowingly collect, solicit data from, or market to children under 18 years of age, nor do we knowingly sell such Personal Information. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the Services. If we learn that Personal Information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected without parental consent, we will take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records.

If you become aware of any data we may have collected from children under age 18, please contact us at [email protected].
