This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect information when you visit our website, contact us, make a donation, sign up for events, subscribe to updates, or otherwise interact with us online.

• Register you for events, workshops, or volunteer opportunities

• Send newsletters, updates, and organizational announcements

The FTC advises organizations to align public-facing privacy disclosures with their actual data practices and to safeguard personal information they collect.

3. Cookies and Analytics

Our website may use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to improve site performance, understand visitor behavior, and support communications and outreach efforts.

These tools may collect information about your device, browser, and how you use the website. You can usually control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect how some parts of the site function.

4. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share your information in limited circumstances, including:

• With service providers that help us operate the website

• With payment processors for donations

• With email or newsletter platforms

• With event registration or volunteer management platforms

• When required by law, court order, or legal process

• When necessary to protect the rights, safety, or property of Father Factor Inc., our users, or others

If your site is subject to laws like the CCPA, users may have rights related to what categories of personal information are collected, used, shared, or sold, and to request deletion in some cases.

5. Third-Party Services and Links

Our website may include links to third-party websites, platforms, donation portals, social media pages, or external services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of third-party sites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before sharing personal information.

6. Email Communications

If you sign up for our mailing list or otherwise provide your email address, we may send you updates about our work, events, programs, fundraising efforts, and community opportunities.

You may opt out of marketing emails at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in the email or contacting us directly.

7. Data Security

We take reasonable administrative, technical, and physical measures to help protect personal information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or disclosure. However, no method of internet transmission or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

The FTC recommends taking reasonable steps to protect sensitive personal information and tailoring safeguards to the types of data collected.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to fulfill legal, accounting, operational, or reporting requirements.

9. Children’s Privacy

Our website is not intended for children under the age of 13 unless specifically stated. We do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13 without appropriate parental consent where required by law.

If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without proper authorization, we will take reasonable steps to delete that information.

COPPA applies to child-directed sites and to general-audience sites with actual knowledge that they are collecting personal information from children under 13. The FTC finalized additional COPPA rule changes in January 2025, including stronger protections around children’s data sharing for advertising.

10. Your Privacy Choices

Depending on where you live, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, such as the right to:

• Request access to the personal information we have about you

• Request correction of inaccurate information

• Request deletion of your personal information

• Opt out of certain communications

• Ask questions about how your information is collected or used

11. California Privacy Notice

If you are a California resident, you may have additional rights under California privacy law, depending on whether the law applies to our organization and data practices. These rights may include the right to know, delete, correct, and limit certain uses of personal information. California’s Department of Justice explains that covered businesses must provide consumers with information about privacy rights and how requests are handled.

12. Do Not Track Signals

Some web browsers may transmit “Do Not Track” signals. Because there is no universal standard for how to respond to these signals, our website may not respond to them at this time.

California guidance has previously highlighted that privacy policies should disclose how the operator responds to Do Not Track signals and whether third parties may collect personally identifiable information over time and across different sites.

13. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the website after changes are posted means you accept the updated policy.
