Privacy Policy

Caring For Others, Inc. ("CFO," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through caring4others.org (the "Site"), how we use that information, and the choices available to you.

Information We Collect

Information you provide directly. When you donate, sign up for our newsletter, volunteer, register for an event, apply for assistance, or contact us, you may provide information such as your name, email address, postal address, phone number, employer, household details (where relevant to assistance programs), and payment details. Donation payment information is processed by our third-party payment processor and is not stored on our servers.

Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we automatically collect certain technical information when you visit the Site, including IP address, browser type, device type, referring URL, pages visited, and timestamps. We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Site and analyze usage. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

How We Use Information

We use the information we collect to:

•       process donations and issue tax-deductible giving receipts;

•       communicate with donors, volunteers, supporters, and prospective supporters about CFO programs, events, and fundraising;

•       administer events, volunteer activities, assistance programs, and partnerships;

•       operate our programs, including International Poverty Forum;

•       improve the Site, including through analytics; and

•       comply with legal obligations, including charitable solicitation registration and tax reporting.

Sharing of Information

We do not sell donor or supporter information. We share information only with:

•       service providers acting on our behalf (e.g., payment processors, email service providers, hosting providers, analytics providers), who are obligated to protect the information and use it only to perform services for us;

•       our programs, including International Poverty Forum, where appropriate for joint administration and shared operations;

•       partner organizations and corporate sponsors where appropriate for the operation of specific programs and where you have indicated your willingness for us to do so;

•       legal and regulatory authorities where required by law; and

•       successors in interest in the event of a merger, acquisition, or transfer of assets.
