We may use some non-identifiable personal information in public formats, such as social media or our website (i.e. first name with city and state) to highlight recent or generous donations or volunteer efforts.
When and where required by law, we may disclose personal information to the IRS and/or state authorities. We will comply with any lawful order regarding your information, such as a subpoena.

Our website may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these websites.
7. Children's Privacy:
We do not knowingly collect or solicit personal information from children under the age of 13. If you believe we have collected such information, please contact us, and we will promptly delete it. We may collect photos or videos of volunteers or disaster aid recipients who are under the age of 13, but will do our best to blur any faces or identifiable information to the best of our ability, unless a release has been obtained from a guardian of the child. If you see your child in any of our photos or videos, you have not signed a release, and you object to the use of their likeness, please contact us immediately and we will edit the media to blur their image.
8. Changes to this Policy:
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. Any changes will be posted on this page, and the revised policy will apply to all data collected after the date of the update.
