The following statement describes NonProfit Rate’s privacy practices for the NonProfit Rate website at: www.nonprofitrate.com.

NonProfit Rate believes in the importance of your privacy. This privacy policy applies only to information collected online through the website and does not describe the ways in which we may collect or use information obtained offline or through any means other than our website.  By using or accessing the NonProfit Rate website, you are accepting the practices described in this privacy policy.

Any information we collect helps us better serve you and improve NonProfit Rate programs. You do not have to provide any personal information on the NonProfit Rate website unless you choose to do so.  We will NEVER ask for your Social Security Number on our website or through email. We can tailor and personalize content based on your preferences and profile.  

On our site, we do set cookies. A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer’s hard drive. Cookies are used to help personalize the online experience for the user – based on the action you request.

We do not knowingly collect any information from children under the age of 13.

Usage Information
We may record information about your usage of the NonProfit Rate site, such as when you use the site, the areas of the site you click on and/or participate in and the tags you search for. A cookie may also be used to track this information.  

We may use pixel tags and trackable links in HTML-based emails sent to our users to track which emails are opened and/or clicked on by recipients. We may use cookies to deliver and tailor content, including ads relevant to your interests, on our sites or on third party sites.

Personal and Financial Information Security
NonProfit Rate takes certain security measures to help protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of data. These measures include internal reviews of our data collection, storage and processing practices and security measures, as well as physical security measures to guard against unauthorized access to systems where we store personal data. NonProfit Rate uses personal information only for the purposes for which it was collected and in accordance with this Policy. We restrict access to personal information to NonProfit Rate employees, affiliates, contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to market, operate, develop or improve our services.  

The NonProfit Rate site includes links to other websites, many of which are operated by NonProfit Rate program providers and some of which are not. These sites may also collect personal information and may have their own privacy policies that differ from, and are not covered by, this privacy policy. It is important that you review any privacy policies on these sites carefully before you use any services or programs offered. Some of the NonProfit Rate program providers (linked from the NonProfit Rate site) collect credit card information online.

When you click to unaffiliated third-party sites, NonProfit Rate is not responsible for, and has no control over, the information collection or privacy practices of that site. It is important that you review and understand the privacy policies posted on any linked sites you visit before volunteering any of your personal information.

Other Disclosures
We may be required to disclose user information pursuant to lawful requests, such as subpoenas or court orders, or in compliance with applicable laws. Additionally, we may share account or other information when we believe it is necessary to comply with the law, to protect our interests or property, to prevent fraud or other illegal activity perpetrated through the NonProfit Rate service or using the NonProfit Rate name, to prevent bodily harm, to enforce our Terms of Service, or to protect the rights, property or safety of visitors to our site, our customers, the public or NonProfit Rate.  In the unlikely event that NonProfit Rate/NonProfit Rate (or substantially all of its assets) is acquired by another entity, information on our visitors would be among the transferred assets.

Updates
From time to time, we may use customer information for new, unanticipated uses not previously disclosed in our privacy notice. If our information practices change at some time in the future we will post the policy changes to our website to notify you of these changes. If you are concerned about how your information is used, please check back at our website periodically.
