By using any part of our services, you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your information as outlined in this Policy. Sadaqah Group may make changes to the Policy periodically.

• 1. Your Information
  We may use the information we collect from and about you for the following purposes:
  • For authentication purposes
  • For recognition
  • To initiate or to provide the features, services and products available through the Services;
  • To send you information about your relationship or transactions with us, account alerts, or other communications, such as newsletters to which you have subscribed;
  • To contact you with information, surveys, or Campaigns that we believe may be of interest to you both regarding our products and Services and those of third parties;
  • To process and respond to your inquiries or to request your Feedback;
  • For internal research and reporting;
  • To improve the content and features of the Services or develop new Services;
  • To personalize the content and advertising that you see on the Services or on other websites;
  • For internal recruiting purposes;
  • With your consent, to call or send you SMS messages regarding your relationship with us or offers or services that may interest you;
  • To enforce the legal terms that govern your use of the Services; and
  • To administer and troubleshoot the Services.

  Note that we may combine information that we collect from you and about you (including automatically-collected information) with information we obtain about you from our affiliates and/or non-affiliated third parties, and use such combined information in accordance with this Policy.

  We may aggregate and/or de-identify information collected through the Services. We may use de-identified and/or aggregated data for any purpose, including without limitation for research and marketing purposes, and may also share such data with any third parties, including advertisers, promotional partners, Campaign Organizers, and/or others.

• 2. Information Disclosure
  We may disclose and/or share your information to or with any non-affiliated third parties under the following circumstances:
  • Consent. We may disclose your information to any third parties based on your consent to do so.
  • Service Providers. We may provide access to or share your information with select third parties who perform services on our behalf, including without limitation marketing, market research, customer support, data storage, analysis and processing, and legal services.
  • Campaign Organizers. When you donate to a Campaign, we disclose certain of your information to the Campaign Organizer.
  • Protection of Sadaqah Group and Others. You acknowledge, consent, and agree that Sadaqah Group may access, preserve, and disclose your information and/or any User Content you submit or make available for inclusion on the Services, if required to do so by law or in a good faith belief that such access, preservation, or disclosure is permitted by Sadaqah Group’s Privacy Policy or reasonably necessary or appropriate for any of the following reasons: (1) to comply with legal process; (2) to enforce these Terms, our Policy, or other contracts with you, including investigation of potential violations thereof; (3) to respond to claims that any content violates the rights of third parties; (4) to respond to your requests for customer service; and/or (5) to protect the rights, property, or personal safety of Sadaqah Group, its agents and affiliates, its users, and the public. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection, and spam/malware prevention, and similar purposes.
  • Business Transfers. As we continue to develop our business, we may buy, merge or partner with other companies. In such transactions, (including in contemplation of such transactions, e.g., due diligence) user information may be among the transferred assets. If a portion or all of Sadaqah Group’s assets are sold or transferred to a third-party, customer information (including your email address) would likely be one of the transferred business assets.
  • Campaigns and Public Forums. Campaigns on our Services may be publicly-accessible. We may also offer community forums. You should be aware that any information you provide in these areas may be read, collected, and used by others who access them. Please also remember that if you choose to provide information on such features of the Services, individuals reading such information may use or disclose it to other individuals or entities without our control and without your knowledge, and search engines may index that information. We therefore urge you to think carefully about what you choose to disclose through such forums and make sure it’s information you want to share publically.
• 3. Analytics and Marketing
  
  1. Analytics
     We may use third-party web analytics services on our Services to collect and analyze the information discussed above, and to engage in auditing, research or reporting. The information (including your IP address) collected by various analytics technologies described in the “Cookies and Similar Technologies” section will be disclosed to or collected directly by these service providers, who use the information to evaluate your use of the Services, including by noting the third-party website from which you arrive, analyzing usage trends, assisting with fraud prevention, and providing certain features to you. To prevent Analytics from using your information for analytics, you may install the Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. We may also use other Analytics software to analyze and optimize the performance of our websites, advertising, and content. If you receive email from us, we may use certain analytics tools, such as clear GIFs to capture data such as when you open our message or click on any links or banners our email contains. This data allows us to gauge the effectiveness of our communications and marketing campaigns.
  2. Digital Marketing
     

     We may use third-party advertising technologies that allow for the delivery of relevant content and advertising on our Services, as well as on other websites you visit. We also work with website analytics and advertising partners, including Doubleclick Campaign Manager, and Facebook, to deliver Sadaqah Group ads on third party publisher websites, and these partners may set cookies on your device's web browser. The ads may be based on various factors such as the content of the page you are visiting, information you enter such as your age and gender, your searches, demographic data, user-generated content, and other information we collect from you. These ads may be based on your current activity or your activity over time and across other websites and online services and may be tailored to your interests.

     We may also allow other third parties (e.g., ad networks and ad servers such as Analytics, DoubleClick and others) to serve tailored ads to you on the Services, other sites, and in other applications, and to access their own cookies or other tracking technologies on your computer, mobile phone, or other device you use to access the Services. We may provide our customer information (such as email addresses) to service providers, who may “match” this information in de-identified form to cookies (or mobile ad identifiers) and other proprietary IDs, in order to target or “retarget” you with ads when you visit other websites and mobile applications.

     We neither have access to, nor does this Policy govern, the use of cookies or other tracking technologies that may be placed on your computer, mobile phone, or other device you use to access the Services by non-affiliated, third-party ad technology, ad servers, ad networks or any other non-affiliated third parties. Those parties that use these technologies may offer you a way to opt out of ad targeting as described below. You may receive tailored advertising on your computer through a web browser. If you are interested in more information about tailored browser advertising and how you can generally control cookies from being put on your computer to deliver tailored advertising, you may visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s Consumer Opt-Out link or the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Consumer Opt-Out link to opt-out of receiving tailored advertising from companies that participate in those programs. To opt out of Google Analytics for display advertising or customize Google display network ads, you can visit the Google Ads Settings page.

     Note that to the extent advertising technology is integrated into the Services, you may still receive advertisements even if you opt-out. In that case, the advertising will not be tailored to your interests. Also, we do not control any of the above opt-out links or whether any particular company chooses to participate in these opt-out programs. We are not responsible for any choices you make using these mechanisms or the continued availability or accuracy of these mechanisms.

  3. Accessing and Controlling Your Data
     

     In order to ensure that the information we maintain is accurate, you may access certain of your information and delete, change, or modify that information in accordance with applicable laws by editing your user profile. You must promptly update your user profile if it changes or is inaccurate. Supporters may also be provided with an option of anonymizing certain of their information in connection with a donation, such that the information is not publicly available. Please be advised, however, that Donor information will remain visible to Sadaqah Group and to the relevant Campaign Organizers.

     Upon your request, we will close your Campaign or Donor account and remove your Campaign or profile information from view as soon as reasonably possible. Please contact Sadaqah Group at care@SadaqahGroup.org to request closure of your account. Please be advised that we may retain information from closed accounts to comply with the law, prevent fraud, collect any fees owed, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigations of any Member or user, enforce our Terms of Use, and/or for any other purposes otherwise permitted by law that we deem necessary in our sole discretion. Once you transmit User Content through the Services, you may not be able to change or remove it.

  4. Transfer
     The data protection and privacy regulations may not offer the same level of protection as in other parts of the world. By using the Services, you agree to this Policy and you consent to the transfer of all such information, which may not offer a level of protection equivalent to that required in the jurisdiction in which you reside, and to the processing of that information as described in this Policy.
  5. Children’s Privacy
     The Services are intended for general audiences and not for children under the age of 13. If we become aware that we have collected personal information (as defined by the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act) from children under the age of 13, we will take reasonable steps to delete it as soon as practicable.
  6. Safety & Security
     

     We have implemented administrative, technical, and physical security measures to protect against the loss, misuse and/or alteration of your information. These safeguards vary based on the sensitivity of the information that we collect and store. However, we cannot and do not guarantee that these measures will prevent every unauthorized attempt to access, use, or disclose your information since despite our efforts, no Internet and/or other electronic transmissions can be completely secure.

     You may be provided with a password upon creation of your account. We recommend that you immediately change this password and otherwise change your passwords periodically. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your applicable account usernames and passwords. If you believe that your account username and/or password have been stolen or been made known to others, you must contact us immediately at care@SadaqahGroup.org and change your password immediately. We are not responsible if someone else accesses your account(s) through information that they have obtained from you.

  7. Links and Services
     The Services may contain links to or “frame” third-party websites, applications and other services (e.g., including websites related to Campaigns and their Campaign Organizers). Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites and services. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our Services and to read the privacy statements of each and every site they visit that collects their information.
