Our Donor Privacy Policy is designed to protect the privacy and personal information of our valued donors. We are committed to maintaining the trust and confidence of our donors by handling their information securely and responsibly. Here are the key aspects of our Donor Privacy Policy:
1. Collection of Information: We collect personal information from donors for the purpose of processing donations, acknowledging contributions, and communicating with our donors. The information we collect may include names, contact details, donation history, and other relevant information voluntarily provided by donors.
2. Use of Information: The personal information we collect from donors is used solely for the purposes stated at the time of collection. We may use this information to process donations, provide receipts, send donor communications, and keep donors informed about our activities, events, and fundraising campaigns. We do not sell, rent, or exchange donor information with any third parties for their marketing purposes.
3. Data Security: We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect donor information from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. We maintain strict data security protocols to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of donor data. We regularly review and update our security measures to stay in line with industry best practices.
4. Retention of Information: We retain donor information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, as required by law. We have established retention periods for different types of donor data and securely dispose of information that is no longer needed.
5. Donor Rights: We respect the rights of our donors and provide them with the opportunity to exercise their rights under applicable data protection laws. Donors have the right to access their personal information, rectify inaccuracies, request erasure, and object to processing, among other rights. We are committed to promptly addressing any requests or concerns regarding donor information.
6. Third-Party Service Providers: In some cases, we may engage trusted third-party service providers to assist us in processing donations, managing donor databases, or conducting fundraising campaigns. These service providers are contractually obligated to handle donor information in a confidential and secure manner, and they are prohibited from using donor data for any other purposes.
7. Updates to Privacy Policy: We may update our Donor Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable laws. Any updates will be posted on our website, and we encourage donors to review the policy periodically.
By adopting this Donor Privacy Policy, we demonstrate our commitment to safeguarding donor information and maintaining the highest level of privacy protection. We value the trust our donors place in us and strive to uphold their privacy rights and expectations.
