Privacy Policy

PledgePage has created this Privacy Policy in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to your privacy and the protection of your information and your contacts' and donors' information.

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.

  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.

    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.
