Privacy Policy

1.Information We Collect

• Contact details you provide when donating or writing to us, such as your name, email address, phone number, and mailing address.

• Technical information collected automatically through standard server logs and cookies, such as your IP address, browser type, and device type.

2.Payment Information

All online payments are handled by our independent third-party payment processor (currently Global Payments).

• To notify donors when our charitable registration is approved and official tax receipts become available.
• To meet our legal, accounting, and regulatory obligations.

4.How We Share Information

We do not sell or rent personal information. We share it only:

• With our payment processor, as necessary to complete your donation;
• With service providers who help us operate the website and campaign (such as website hosting and email services) and who act on our instructions;
• Where required by law, or where necessary to protect our legal rights or the safety of others.
