YUVA is committed to protecting its donors through its Donor Privacy. Our donors expect that we will use their support wisely. They also place their trust in us concerning the personal information that they may share with their gifts.
We value our donors’ trust, and we recognise that maintaining this trust requires us to be transparent and accountable to our supporters and the public. An organisation that deals with individuals and information about individuals in its daily operations and fundraising activities must secure that information.
We maintain all records of donations to YUVA according to the applicable standards for record retention in effect at the time of the donation. All records are kept in a secure location.
YUVA uses the information it collects for its purposes and does not share or sell a donor’s personal information with anyone else for any other purpose. We will not send mailings to our donors on behalf of other organisations. In exceptional circumstances, we may be required to disclose information due to a legal requirement for grant applications and prevent unauthorised bank credit or debit card transactions.
On several occasions, YUVA acknowledges donors by name and description after the donors have permitted such use. It may be necessary for YUVA to change its privacy policy from time to time. A printed copy of YUVA’s Donor Privacy Policy will be mailed to a donor upon request.
