Privacy Policy

At The NewLeaf Project, we care about your privacy. This page explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit our site, take part in our programs, or contact us. We wrote it in clear language so you know exactly what to expect. By using our website at https://wordpressueni.com/newleaf-project/, you agree to this policy.

Information We Collect

We collect information in a few simple ways:

  • Information you share with us: When you fill out a contact form, sign up for updates, donate, or reach out by phone or email, you may give us details like your name, email address, phone number, and billing information if you make a donation.
  • Program participation: If you take part in our services, we may also collect details needed to provide support, such as emergency contact information or other personal notes you choose to share.
  • Automatic data: Like most websites, we may gather technical details such as your IP address, browser type, and how you use our site. This helps us keep the site running smoothly and improve your experience.

How We Use Your Information

We only use your information to serve you better and to keep our nonprofit running responsibly. Some examples include:

  • Answering your questions or requests
  • Processing donations and sending receipts
  • Sharing updates about our programs, events, and community work (if you choose to hear from us)
  • Improving our website and services
  • Keeping records needed for legal or financial purposes

Sharing Your Information

We do not sell your personal details. We only share information when it is necessary and in line with this policy:

  • With trusted service providers who help us run the website, process payments, or send updates. These partners are required to protect your information.
  • If required by law or to protect the safety of our community.
  • When you give us clear permission to share your story or information publicly.

Donations and Payments

When you donate through our site, your payment information is handled by secure third-party processors. We never store full credit card details on our servers. We take care to work only with partners that meet industry security standards.

Cookies and Tracking

Our website may use cookies (small text files stored on your device) to make your visit easier. Cookies help us remember your preferences and see how people use our site. You can adjust your browser settings to refuse cookies, but some parts of the site may not work as well without them.

Your Choices

You are in control of your information. Here are your main rights:

  • You can ask us what personal details we hold about you.
  • You can request changes if information is not correct or up to date.
  • You can tell us to stop sending emails or updates at any time by using the unsubscribe link or contacting us directly.
  • You can ask us to delete your information unless we need to keep it for legal reasons.

Protecting Your Information

We take steps to keep your information safe. We use secure systems, limited access for staff, and trusted third-party services to reduce risks. Still, no method of sharing information online is 100% secure, so we cannot promise complete protection. We encourage you to be careful when sharing personal information online.

Children’s Privacy

Our website and online services are not designed for children under 13. If you believe a child has given us personal details without a parent or guardian’s consent, please contact us so we can remove the information.

Links to Other Websites

Sometimes our site may link to other pages or resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. We encourage you to read the policies on any other websites you visit.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make changes, we will post the updated version here with a new date at the top. We suggest you check back now and then to stay informed.
