This Privacy Policy explains how Bosko Partners collects, uses, maintains, and protects personal information obtained through our website, www.boskopartners.org, and through other online interactions associated with our organization.
- Information We Collect
We collect information that you voluntarily provide to us when you contact us, subscribe to communications, make a donation, register for an event or program, apply to or participate in an initiative, request information or resources, complete an online form or survey, or otherwise communicate with Bosko Partners.

If you make a donation through our website, your payment may be processed by a third-party payment processor. Bosko Partners generally does not receive or store complete credit or debit card numbers when donations are processed through a third-party payment platform. Payment processors may collect and process payment information in accordance with their own privacy policies and terms.
Bosko Partners may retain information about your donation, including your name, contact information, donation amount, date, and payment status, as necessary to process and acknowledge donations, maintain donor records, issue receipts, fulfill accounting, tax, and legal requirements, and communicate with you regarding your relationship with Bosko Partners.

We may also use personal information for other purposes disclosed at the time information is collected. We will not use personal information for purposes that are materially different from those described in this Privacy Policy without providing appropriate notice where required.

We may share personal information with third-party service providers that provide services on our behalf, including website hosting, email distribution, donation and payment processing, database and constituent management, event registration, website analytics, information technology and security, cloud storage, and other administrative services. We provide these service providers only the information reasonably necessary to perform their services.
We may also disclose personal information in response to a subpoena, court order, legal process, governmental request, or as otherwise required or permitted by law. We may disclose information when reasonably necessary to protect the rights, property, safety, or security of Bosko Partners, our users, partners, or others.
We may share personal information for other purposes with your permission.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third-party websites and services before providing personal information to them.
- Data Security
Bosko Partners takes reasonable measures to protect personal information from unauthorized access, use, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures may include access controls, password protections, secure technology, and other safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information we maintain.
