How Grow with Drexel handles the information you share with us — in plain language.
Last updated: [add date when you publish]
Grow with Drexel is a volunteer-run community group and nonprofit based in Drexel, North Carolina. If you have any questions about this policy or your information, contact us at [your contact email] or by mail at [your mailing address].
We only collect what you choose to give us. That includes the details you enter when you volunteer (your name, phone number, and email address), your email address if you join our mailing list, and any message you send us through a form on this site. We do not collect or store payment card or bank account information — donations are handled entirely by our donation platform.
We use your contact details to reach out when we need volunteers, to send occasional email updates if you opted in, and to respond to questions or feedback you send us. We do not sell, rent, or trade your information, and we don’t use it for anything beyond running Grow with Drexel.
You only receive emails from us if you opt in. Every email includes a one-click way to unsubscribe, and you can ask us to remove you at any time. If you unsubscribe, we stop emailing you.
Online donations are processed by a third-party donation platform on its own secure systems. We receive a record that a gift was made (and the donor’s name and contact details if provided) so we can thank you and keep our records, but we never see or store your card or bank numbers.
To run this site we use a small number of trusted third-party services — for example, our website host, our form-handling service, our email service, and our donation platform. Each processes data only to provide its service to us, and each has its own privacy policy. We share your information with them only as needed to operate the site and our programs.
This site does not use advertising or tracking cookies. For convenience and offline access, your browser may store a copy of the pages on your own device (so the site loads quickly and can work as an installable app); that copy stays on your device and is not shared with us. Any forms you submit are sent only to the service that handles them.
We keep your information only as long as it’s useful for the purpose you gave it — for example, while you’re on our volunteer or email list — and we remove it when you ask us to, or when it’s no longer needed.
We take a few common-sense steps to protect your information: we collect only what we need, use it only for the reasons described here, limit access to the board members who help run our programs, and rely on reputable services that secure data on their systems. While no website or service can promise perfect security, we work to keep your information safe and to act promptly if a problem ever arises.
You can ask us at any time to see what information we hold about you, correct it, or delete it — just contact us at [your contact email]. If you’re in the European Union or United Kingdom, applicable data-protection law gives you these rights as well, and the basis on which we handle your information is your consent, which you can withdraw at any time.
This site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We don’t knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we’ll remove it.
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we’ll post the new version here and update the “last updated” date above.
Questions, or want us to update or remove your information? Email [your contact email] or write to us at [your mailing address].
