Your privacy rights

Effective Date: July 23, 2024

This Privacy Policy describes the types of information gathered by Fundraise Up Inc. (“Fundraise Up”, “us” or “we”) in the process of providing this website (https://fundraiseup.com/) (the “Site”), the cloud-based platform (the “Software”) and the data, services, information, tools, functionality, updates and similar materials (collectively, the “Service”), how we use it, with whom the information may be shared, what choices are available to you regarding collection, use and distribution of information and our efforts to protect the information you provide to us through the Service.

By using the Service, you hereby consent to allow us to process information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Please also refer to our Terms of Service, available here https://fundraiseup.com/terms, which are hereby incorporated as if fully recited herein. Any defined terms found, but not defined herein, shall have the same definition as in the Terms of Service.

Territoriality

Regardless of where our servers are located, your personal data may be processed by us in the United States, where data protection and privacy regulations may or may not be to the same level of protection as in other parts of the world. BY VISITING THE SITE AND USING THE SERVICE, YOU UNEQUIVOCALLY AND UNAMBIGUOUSLY CONSENT TO THE COLLECTION AND PROCESSING IN THE UNITED STATES OF ANY INFORMATION COLLECTED OR OBTAINED BY US THROUGH VOLUNTARY SUBMISSIONS, AND, TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE, THAT U.S. LAW GOVERNS ANY SUCH COLLECTION AND PROCESSING.

This Privacy Policy is subject to the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"), the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, as amended, (“CCPA”), the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), as amended (“APA”) and other applicable privacy laws. Fundraise Up agrees that under the GDPR, it is a data “processor”, the non-profits we work with are data “controllers”, and you, if you are an individual and reside in the United Kingdom, the European Economic Area, or Switzerland (collectively, and for the purposes of this Privacy Policy, the “EEA”), are a “Data Subject” with certain protected privacy rights concerning your “Personal Data.” In the event that you are a Data Subject and using our Site, an employee or agent of one of the non-profits that we work with, applying for a job with us, we are a “controller” with respect to your personal data, or if we are using your personal data for an internal purpose. Similarly, under the CCPA, we are a “Service Provider”, the non-profits are “Businesses”, and you, if you are an individual residing in California, are a “Consumer” with certain protected privacy rights concerning your “Personal Information”. However, in the event that you are a Consumer and using our Site, an employee or agent of one of the non-profits that we work with, applying for a job with us, or if we are using your personal data for an internal purpose, we are a “Business” with respect to your Personal Information. We will take commercially reasonable steps to maintain compliance with GDPR and CCPA requirements. Your Personal Data and Personal Information may identify you as a person, and thus may be referred to as Personally Identifiable Information ("PII").

1. Who Collects Your Information On Our Service?

We do. Under the CCPA we are a “Business” and pursuant to the GDPR, Fundraise Up is what is known as the “processor” of the PII that you provide to us. We collect information from you on the Service, and we are responsible for protection of your information.

2. Where did we get your data from?

Browser
Your internet browser (such as Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, etc.) automatically transmits some information to us every time you access content on one of our internet domains. Examples of such information include the URL of the particular Web page you visited, the IP (Internet Protocol) address of the computer you are using, or the browser version that you are using to access the website.
Directly from you
We may obtain PII directly from you, e.g. when you contact us.
Third parties
We may also obtain your PII from organizations, when our cookies are enabled on the non-profit clients’ (“organizations”) websites, and other third parties.

3. What data, for what purposes, on what basis, and for how long do we process?

We will only collect personal data about you and your donors insofar as is necessary to achieve the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.

In the instance of a co-branded site, we will still be the entity collecting your information, and our Privacy Policy will apply to that information. However, the privacy policy of our co-branding partner may still apply as well.

Reading these policies will help you to make an informed decision about whether to provide your information to a given site.

With your knowledge and consent, we may share your personal information with our business partners.

6. How Do We Store and Protect Your Information?

After receiving your personal information, we will store it on our servers for future use. We have physical, electronic, and managerial procedures in place to safeguard and help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security, and correctly use the information we collect. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the internet or data storage solution can ever be completely secure. As a result, although we take industry-standard steps to protect your information (e.g., strong encryption), we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to or receive from us or that we store on our or our service providers' systems.
Please note that we encrypt any PII in our possession and are compliant with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) v. 3.2 under the Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) A standard. Further, all data transfers are through secure http protocol (HTTPS), and as such are encrypted. We also restrict access to PII to key employees and log all instances of access to PII. Our Payment Processor is fully PCI-Compliant and encrypts all payment transactions using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology.
If you are visiting the Site from outside of the USA, you understand that your connection will be through and to servers located in the USA, and the information you provide will be securely stored in our servers and internal systems located within the USA.
We store your personal information until you request to discontinue the Service or that we otherwise remove such information from our services, at which point we will remove all related PII from our possession, unless we are required to retain some or all of it in order to comply with applicable law. We store our logs and other technical records indefinitely.

7. How do we use cookies and other network technologies?

To enhance your online experience with us, our web pages may presently or in the future use "cookies." Cookies are text files that our web server may place on your hard disk to store your preferences. Cookies, by themselves, do not tell us your e-mail address or other PII unless you choose to provide this information to us. Once you choose to provide PII, however, this information may be linked to the data stored in the cookie. Although it may be possible to turn off the collection of cookies through your device or browser, certain features of the Services may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
Our Service uses Google Analytics, provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 (“Google”).

Fundraise Up or our service providers may also use "pixel tags," "web beacons," "clear GIFs" or similar means (collectively, "Pixel Tags") in connection with some Fundraise Up Site pages and HTML-formatted email messages for purposes of, among other things, compiling aggregate statistics about website usage and response rates. A Pixel Tag is an electronic image, often a single pixel (1x1), that is ordinarily not visible to website visitors and may be associated with cookies on visitors’ hard drives. Pixel Tags allow us and our service providers to count users who have visited certain pages of the Fundraise Up Site, to deliver customized services, and to help determine the effectiveness of promotional or advertising campaigns. When used in HTML-formatted email messages, Pixel Tags can inform the sender of the email whether and when the email has been opened.
Our Service uses the “Custom Audience pixel” of Facebook, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA (“Facebook”) on our website. This allows user behavior to be tracked after they have been redirected to the provider’s website by clicking on a Facebook ad. This enables us to measure the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes. The data collected in this way is anonymous to us, i.e. we do not see the personal data of individual users. However, this data is stored and processed by Facebook, which is why we are informing you, based on our knowledge of the situation. Facebook may link this information to your Facebook account and also use it for its own promotional purposes, in accordance with Facebook’s Data Policy https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/. You can allow Facebook and its partners to place ads on and off Facebook. A cookie may also be stored on your computer for these purposes. The legal basis for the use of this service is Art. 6 paragraph 1 sentence 1 letter f GDPR. You can object to the collection of your data by Facebook pixel, or to the use of your data for the purpose of displaying Facebook ads by contacting the following address: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads.
As you use the internet, you leave a trail of electronic information at each website you visit. This information, which is sometimes referred to as "clickstream data”, can be collected and stored by a website’s server. Clickstream data can reveal the type of computer and browsing software you use and the address of the website from which you linked to the Fundraise Up Site. We may use clickstream data as a form of non-personally identifiable information to determine how much time visitors spend on each page of our Site, how visitors navigate through the Site, and how we may tailor our web pages to better meet the needs of visitors. We will only use this information to improve our site.
Do Not Track. At present, the Site does not specifically respond to browser do-not-track signals.
