To better protect your privacy we provide this notice explaining our information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used.

PledgePage markets its services to non-profits and other fundraising entities. Each nonprofit (NPO) or fundraising entity (FE) may have a privacy policy that differs from PledgePage's. Please refer to the nonprofit organization or fundraising entity for its own privacy policy. PledgePage is not responsible for any uses of page builder or donor information by the nonprofit organization or fundraising entity.

    Our site uses cookies to keep track of your use of our site. Cookies are stored on your computer, and are not stored on the PledgePage.com site anywhere. We use cookies to recognize you when you visit our site.

  2. Our Use of Your Information

    Your contact information is used by PledgePage to contact you when necessary regarding your use of PledgePage services.

  3. Non-Profit's or Fundraising Entity's Use of Your Information

    Because you might be participating in a fundraising event for a non-profit with which PledgePage has a relationship, PledgePage will disclose and make fully available all registration information to the non-profit (NPO) on behalf of which you are fundraising.

  4. Other Disclosure of Your Information

    We never use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described in this Privacy Policy and Terms of Use without also providing you an opportunity to opt-out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses. In the future, we may offer you the option to receive information from PledgePage partners.

    PledgePage.com will never willfully sell or rent for consideration any personally identifiable information about you to any third party without first receiving your permission.

    PledgePage.com cannot ensure that all of your personally identifiable information will never be disclosed in ways not described in this Privacy Policy. For example, we may be required to disclose personally identifiable information to the government or by court order under certain circumstances, or other situations may arise requiring such disclosure. In addition, you authorize us to disclose any information about you to law enforcement or other government officials as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate.

  4. Thanking Contributors on the Site

    With the PledgePage tool set, you have the option of thanking your contributors by placing their names on your site.

Neither PledgePage nor the charity receiving the donation is responsible for the use of any information regarding your contributors that you make publicly available on your site.


DONOR INFORMATION:

  1. Credit Card Information

    When a donor uses PledgePage-enabled services to make an online donation, the credit card billing information, including the name on the donor's card, billing address, and expiration date, is used to process the donation. An Email address is entered so the non-profit can send the donor an Email receipt of the donation. All this information is encrypted using SSL, industry standard secure technology. This encryption is designed to prevent theft or interception of the information.

    Donating online through PledgePage will not open your credit card information to dissemination. PledgePage will not disclose, sell, trade, rent, or otherwise reveal donors' credit card information to third parties, including advertisers or marketers, without first receiving the donors' consent. This information is only used to process the donation.

  2. Our Use of This Information

    We never use or share the personally identifiable information about donors provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described in this Privacy Policy and Terms of Use without also providing the donor an opportunity to opt-out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.

  4. Other Donor Information

    As for the donor's other personally identifiable information, PledgePage may disclose aggregate use statistics (for example, 50% of our users are male) in order to describe our services to prospective partners, investors, and otherwise relevant third parties. Such disclosed information will not include any personal information about individual donors. Other than this statistical use, PledgePage will not disclose, sell, trade, rent, or otherwise reveal personal information about individual donors to third parties without first receiving the donor's consent.

  5. Non-Profit or Fundraising Entity Privacy Policies

    Each nonprofit (NPO) or fundraising entity (FE) may have a privacy policy that differs from PledgePage's. Please refer to the nonprofit organization or fundraising entity for its own privacy policy. PledgePage is not responsible for any uses of page builder or donor information by the nonprofit organization or fundraising entity.

  6. Security

    In order to maximize protection of your information, PledgePage uses state of the art technology to protect your data from use, misuse or alteration by unauthorized third parties.
