Privacy Statement
The Goodness Foundation (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This statement explains what information we collect through our website, how we use it, and the choices you have.
Information We Collect
When you contact us by email, submit a form, sign up to volunteer, or make a donation, you may share information such as your name, email address, phone number, and any details you choose to include in your message. Online donations are processed by our third-party partner, Givebutter; payment information is entered on Givebutter’s secure platform, not on our website, and is handled under Givebutter’s own privacy and security practices. Like most websites, our hosting provider may also collect standard technical information such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited, and our site loads fonts from Google Fonts, which may receive your IP address as part of delivering those fonts.
How We Use Information
We use the information we collect to respond to your inquiries, process and acknowledge donations, coordinate volunteer opportunities, provide the services you request, and share updates about our mission when you have asked to hear from us.
How We Share Information
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We share information only with trusted service providers who help us operate—such as our donation processor—or when required by law.
Cookies and Third-Party Services
Our website may use cookies or similar technologies through third-party services such as our donation platform. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Any third-party websites we link to have their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to review.
Children’s Privacy
Our website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the information we handle. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your Choices
You may opt out of our communications at any time, and you may contact us to ask about the information we hold about you.
Changes to This Statement
We may update this statement from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised date.
Contact Us
If you have questions about this Privacy Statement, contact us at [email protected].
Nondiscrimination Statement
The Goodness Foundation provides grants, volunteer opportunities, and program services without discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, age, disability, marital or familial status, pregnancy, genetic information, military or veteran status, or recovery status. We are committed to equal access for everyone we serve. Questions or concerns can be directed to [email protected].
