To make this notice easy to find, we make it available on our homepage and at every point where personally identifiable information may be requested.

The Way We Use Information

We use the information you provide about yourself when subscribing to our mailing list to send you information about ourselves and our ongoing activities. We do not share our mailing list with outside parties except to the extent necessary to actually complete mailings or electronic distributions relating to our own activities.

We use the information you provide about yourself or someone else being honored or memorialized by a donation made by you to acknowledge the donation to you and any honoree you may specify, and for our own internal accounting and recordkeeping purposes. We do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to acknowledge the donation, to complete your method of payment (clearance of checks, submission of credit card information, etc.) and to comply with record keeping laws applicable to 501(c)(3) non-profit corporations.

We use return email addresses to answer the email we receive and may also include such addresses on our own electronic mailing list. Such addresses are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with outside parties. You can register with our website if you would like to receive information from us and updates on our activities and finances.

We may from time to time use non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our website. For example, we may disclose that X number of individuals visited a certain area on our website, but we would not disclose anything that could be used to identify those individuals.

Finally, we never use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above without at all times also providing you an opportunity to opt-out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.

Recommended Donations Policy

As stated, our policy is not to routinely share donor information with third parties. However, in the case of recommended (designated) donations we reserve the right to advise the recipients of the recommended donation of the source of that donation unless requested not to do so by the donor.

Our Commitment to Data Security

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

Our Commitment to Children’s Privacy

Protecting the privacy of the very young is especially important. For that reason, we never collect or maintain information via our website for those we actually know are under 13 without appropriate authorization from a parent or guardian, and no part of our website that may from time to time be structured to attract anyone under 13 will collect any identifying information about such viewers.

How You Can Access or Correct Your Information

You can access all your personally identifiable information that we collect online and maintain by contacting naomi@goodpeoplefund.org. We have implemented procedures to better safeguard your information. You can correct factual errors in your personally identifiable information by sending us a request that credibly shows the error. To protect your privacy and security, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access or making corrections.
