Privacy Policy
Respectful data practices.
Clear limits.
This privacy policy describes how the Foundation collects, uses, protects, and retains personal information through its website and related communications.
1. Information covered by this privacy policy
The Foundation may collect information you provide directly. For example, this can include your name, email address, telephone number, mailing address, donation information, volunteer interests, partnership inquiries, event registrations, public-information requests, and communications. Additionally, the website may collect limited technical information such as browser type, device information, IP address, referring pages, and usage data through hosting, security, analytics, or consent-based tools.
2. How the Foundation uses information under this privacy policy
For example, the Foundation may use information to answer inquiries, process donations, coordinate volunteers and events, manage partnerships and records, improve the website, protect systems, comply with law, and send authorized communications.
3. Payment information
Submit payment-card and banking information through authorized third-party payment providers. The Foundation does not intend to store complete payment-card numbers on this website.
4. Sharing
The Foundation does not sell personal information. When necessary and appropriate, the Foundation may share information with authorized service providers, professional advisers, governmental authorities, and event or program partners. It may also share information with others when you consent or the law requires it.
5. Donor privacy
In addition, the Foundation uses donor information for processing, acknowledgment, accounting, accountability, compliance, and authorized communications. The Foundation does not publicly disclose donor names and addresses unless the law requires it or the donor authorizes recognition.
6. Cookies, analytics, location and language services
The website uses Jetpack Stats, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and related Site Kit services to understand aggregate traffic, page views, referrals, device types, browser language, and approximate geographic activity such as country or region. These services may use cookies, IP-derived location, or similar technologies. In addition, these services may apply privacy thresholds to small data sets. The Foundation uses these reports to improve accessibility, content, outreach, events, and donation pathways; it does not publish individual visitor or donor identities.
The language selector uses GTranslate and Google translation services. Review Google’s privacy information for details about Google services. When a visitor requests a translated version, those services may process visible page text and technical request information. However, machine translations may contain errors; the English version remains the controlling version for legal, donation, drawing, governance, and policy information unless an authorized translated version states otherwise.
Hosted payment providers such as Stripe or PayPal may separately process contact, billing-country, transaction, fraud-prevention, and receipt information under their own privacy terms. For further details, review the Stripe Privacy Center and the PayPal Privacy Statement. The Foundation uses payment reports for accounting, acknowledgments, compliance, and aggregate geographic understanding, not to publish donor-level information. Also, visitors may use browser controls, consent tools where presented, or Do Not Track settings supported by the applicable service.
7. Security
The Foundation uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so users should not submit highly sensitive information through ordinary website forms or email.
8. Retention
The Foundation retains information according to legal, accounting, donor, governance, operational, security, and record-retention requirements. In addition, it disposes of information when it no longer reasonably needs it.
9. Children
The general website does not target children under 13. For program or event activities involving minors, the Foundation may use separate consent, registration, and privacy procedures.
10. Your choices
You may request correction of contact information, unsubscribe from nonessential communications, or ask a privacy question through the Foundation’s contact page. However, the Foundation must retain some records for legal, financial, audit, or operational reasons.
