Privacy Policy

Innovative Community Engagement Foundation
Effective Date: September 2, 2026

The Innovative Community Engagement Foundation (“Foundation,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to responsibly handling the personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains how we may collect, use, and protect information when you visit our website, make a donation, register for an event, volunteer, communicate with us, or otherwise interact with the Foundation.

Information We Collect

We may collect information that you voluntarily provide to us, including your name, email address, mailing address, telephone number, donation information, event registration information, volunteer interests, chapter affiliation or preference, and other information you choose to provide.

When you make an online donation, payment information may be collected and processed by our third-party payment or fundraising providers. The Foundation generally does not directly receive or store your complete credit or debit card information.

We may also automatically receive limited technical information when you use our website, such as your IP address, browser or device information, pages visited, referring website, and similar usage information through cookies, analytics tools, or related technologies.

How We Use Your Information

We may use information we collect to:

Process and acknowledge donations;
Provide donation receipts and maintain appropriate financial records;
Register you for programs, events, or volunteer opportunities;
Communicate with you about the Foundation, its programs, chapters, events, and opportunities to get involved;
Respond to questions or requests;
Understand and improve our programs, communications, fundraising, and website;
Maintain the security and integrity of our systems; and
Comply with applicable legal, tax, accounting, and regulatory requirements.

Donations and Chapter Credit

Donors may have the opportunity to identify a Foundation chapter in connection with a donation. Unless expressly stated otherwise at the time of the gift, identifying a chapter is for attribution and internal tracking purposes and does not restrict the Foundation’s use of the donation. Unrestricted gifts may be used by the Foundation where they are most needed to advance its charitable mission.

Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share information with service providers and other organizations that help us operate the Foundation, including providers that assist with fundraising, payment processing, email communications, website hosting, analytics, event management, accounting, and other administrative functions.

We may also disclose information when required by law, necessary to protect the Foundation or others, or in connection with legitimate organizational and legal requirements.

We require or expect service providers to handle personal information appropriately and use it for the purposes for which it was provided.

Donor Privacy

We respect the privacy of our donors. We do not publicly identify donors without authorization, except where disclosure may be required by law.

Certain donor information may be maintained as required for tax, accounting, regulatory, and organizational purposes.

Email and Other Communications

If you provide us with your email address or other contact information, we may use it to communicate with you about your donation or interaction with the Foundation and, where appropriate, about Foundation news, programs, events, fundraising efforts, and opportunities.

You may unsubscribe from marketing or promotional emails using the unsubscribe link included in those communications. We may still send transactional or administrative communications when appropriate.

Cookies and Analytics

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the site, understand how visitors use it, improve performance, and measure the effectiveness of our communications.

Your browser may allow you to limit or disable cookies. Doing so may affect the functionality of certain website features.

Third-Party Services and Links

Our website and communications may contain links to third-party websites or use third-party platforms, including fundraising and payment-processing services. Those third parties maintain their own privacy practices and policies. We encourage you to review their policies before providing personal information.

Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information in our possession. However, no website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, maintain appropriate organizational and financial records, comply with legal obligations, and protect the legitimate interests of the Foundation.

Children’s Privacy

Our website and general fundraising activities are not directed toward collecting personal information from children under 13 without appropriate parental or guardian involvement. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child in circumstances where parental consent is required, we will take reasonable steps to address the information appropriately.

Your Choices

You may contact us to request that we update or correct personal information you have provided to us or to ask questions about how your information is handled. Certain information may need to be retained for legal, financial, tax, security, or recordkeeping purposes.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or operations. The current version will be posted on our website with its effective date.
