Privacy Policy

Who we are

Haiti Ap Grandi is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with an all-volunteer staff working to achieve food and income security for the people of Haiti. Our website address is https://www.haitiapgrandi.org.

What personal data we collect and why we collect it

When you donate by using your PayPal account or a credit card, the transaction is handled by PayPal and your financial data is not visible to us. We receive and retain your name, email address, date of donation, amount of your donation, and whether you used PayPal or check. We use this information so we can send you a donation receipt after the close of the year.

If you wish to have your information, as described in the previous paragraph, removed from our website, send a message to us using the form on our Contact page. After your information is removed from the website, the Treasurer will maintain information as required by IRS rules, but not on this website or server.

Contact forms

Information you send via the form on our Contact page (your name, email, and message) is sent to the webmaster who may share it with other members of the Board of Directors as needed to respond to the message. Your information is not visible to any other site visitors or retained on the website.

Cookies

We don’t use cookies.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. Currently, there is very little embedded content on our site other than the Donate buttons hosted by PayPal.

These other websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interactions with the embedded content. You can use your internet browser’s controls to restrict websites from collecting your data and/or adding cookies.

Who we share your data with

If you send a message through the Contact form, only the webmaster, and other Board members if needed, to respond to your message will see your message.

How long we retain your data

For people who donate through the website, your name, email address, date of donation, amount of your donation, and whether you used PayPal or check are retained on the site, unavailable to anybody other than the site administrator, until the end of the following year in order to be able to answer your inquiries should you need additional documentation of your donation for tax purposes. IF you request, we will remove your information from the webserver earlier. The Treasurer retains information as required to meet the requirements of the US government for tax-exempt organizations and tax-deductible donations.

What rights you have over your data

If you have donated through this site, you can request an emailed copy of the personal data you provided when donating. You can also request that we erase this data. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where we send your data

Your donation data is only available to the one or two Board members who require it in order to process the transaction and provide your receipt. Email messages you send us may be shared more widely within the Board as needed to respond to your request.

What automated decision making and/or profiling we do with user data

We do no processing of user or donor data other than what is required by law, to provide your donation receipt, and to contact you for permitted purposes. An example of processing your user data is sending emails to you based on selections you make for frequency and/or content when you sign up for email lists or update your preferences.
