Privacy Policy

What we collect

We only collect the information you choose to hand us, and only in a few ordinary ways:

• Contact-form details — your name, email address, phone number, and the message you write when you reach out through our contact page.
• Email correspondence — anything you send us directly at [email protected], including your address and the contents of the thread.
• Volunteer applications — the details you share when you apply to volunteer, foster, or transport, so we can coordinate schedules and keep animals and people safe.

That's the whole list. We do not run user accounts, we do not show ads, and we do not use remarketing or advertising pixels of any kind.

How we use it

Everything we collect has a practical, rescue-related purpose:

• To reply to your questions, requests, and applications.
• To coordinate TNR trapping, spay/neuter vouchers, fostering, and volunteer work.
• To send occasional rescue updates — but only if you've asked to receive them.

We never sell your information, never rent it, and never share it with anyone for marketing purposes. Full stop.

Donations & PayPal

All online gifts are processed by PayPal, a third-party payment processor. When you donate, we see your name, email address, and the amount you gave — we never see or store your card number, bank details, or PayPal password.

Your payment information is handled under PayPal's own privacy policy, which you can read at paypal.com/us/legalhub/privacy-full.

Cookies & analytics

This website itself sets no tracking cookies and runs no analytics scripts. Like nearly every site on the internet, our web host may keep standard server logs — your IP address, browser type, and the pages requested — for security and troubleshooting. Those logs are not used to profile or market to you.

Third-party services

Our site links out to a handful of services we rely on — our Facebook page, PayPal for donations, Chewy for our wishlist, and the IRS charity lookup. When you follow those links, you leave pawsfureverhome.org, and the privacy policies of those sites govern what happens there. We encourage you to read them.

Children's privacy

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us their information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

Your choices & rights

Your information belongs to you. At any time you can ask us to:

• Show you what information we hold about you.
• Correct anything that's wrong or out of date.
• Delete your information from our records.

Just email [email protected] with your request — no forms, no runaround.

Changes to this policy

If we ever change this policy, the new version will be posted right here with a fresh "last updated" date at the top of the page. We won't make material changes quietly.
