PRIVACY POLICY


INTRODUCTION

This Privacy Policy was last updated on April 30, 2021.

If you are an individual located in the European Union or the European Economic
Area, please visit our Privacy Policy (EU/EEA).

We understand your concerns about safety and security and want to assure you
that we make every effort to safeguard your privacy when you make donations
through our giving system or otherwise utilize our services. Our mission is to
help you support any charity, anywhere online – in a convenient and secure
manner.

The information below spells out the privacy and security practices of our
for-profit entity Network for Good, Inc., a New York corporation (“Network for
Good”, “us”, “our” or “we”) and our nonprofit entity Network for Good, a
Delaware nonprofit corporation and donor advised fund (tax ID 68-0480736)
(together, “Network for Good”).  This Privacy Policy describes the types of
information Network for Good may collect from you or that you may provide when
you visit our websites or mobile sites at www.networkforgood.org,
www.networkforgood.com, and www.cause4auction.com (including sub-domains, web
pages within this site or any equivalent mirror, replacement, substitute, or
backup website), or any other website, mobile site or application that links to
this Privacy Policy, accessed via any device, or accessing or using any of our
Services (collectively, the “Websites”).  “Services” means any of the Network
for Good products or services, e.g., Donor Management, Fundraising Pages,
Personal Fundraising Coach, Peer-to-Peer Enterprise Fundraising, Cause4Auction,
or any applications, including mobile applications, made available by Network
for Good.  The definition of Services does not include “Events Now.”

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please do not hesitate
to contact us. If you do not agree with any of the terms and conditions in this
Privacy Policy, please discontinue using the Websites and our Services.

This Privacy Policy is organized into three sections: (1) “General Provisions,”
which apply to everyone using or visiting the Websites; (2) “Special Privacy &
Security Provisions for Donors,” which apply only to users who make donations
through our Websites; and (3) “Special Privacy & Security Provisions for
Nonprofits, Customers, and Potential Customers,” which apply specifically to
nonprofits who use or consider using our Services.


1. GENERAL PROVISIONS

Security

We take reasonable security precautions to protect the personal information that
we collect and you provide to us. We meet commercially reasonable standards for
online payment protection. We use up-to-date industry-accepted tools and
technology protocols, including but not limited to, firewalls and encryption, to
protect against the loss, misuse and unauthorized alteration of the information
we collect. Network for Good helps to protect your information by working with
our service providers who provide a secure and safe environment for credit card
donations. Please remember that the safety and security of your information also
depends on you. Where we have given you (or you have chosen) a logon ID or
password to access certain services or areas of the Websites, you are
responsible for keeping this ID and/or password confidential. We ask that you
not share such information with anyone or allow anyone to sign-in using your
credentials.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not
completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal information,
we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to us.
Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not
responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures we
put in place for your protection.

What Information Do We Collect?

As discussed in greater detail below, we collect two types of
information: personal information you submit to us voluntarily and information
we collect automatically when you use our Websites or Services. “Personal
information” is data that can be used to uniquely identify or contact a single
person. Personal information we collect may include your name, phone number,
mailing address, email address and payment information, such as last four digits
of credit card number and expiration date. We outline data we collect in more
detail below. We may also collect information such as your organization’s name,
your title within the organization, industry type and 501(c)(3) status, and
other business information about the organization. We may collect information
from you when you use our Websites, such as when you sign up for a Network for
Good or Cause4Auction account, subscribe to our newsletters, register to attend
a webinar, or make a donation.

When you submit payment information to us via the Websites, you consent to
providing your payment information to us and to our service providers processing
the donation to the extent required to provide our Services to you. When we
collect payment information directly from you, we transmit this payment
information directly to our service provider. For donations, we store the last
four digits of the card number and the expiration date.

Contact information Name, mailing address, email address and telephone number
Professional information Organization name, your title within the organization,
industry type, 501(c)(3) status, and other business information about the
organization Account information Contact information as set forth above,
username, password, and any other information you choose to include in your
profile Donation information Billing address, email address, information about
the donation (charity donating to, the amount of the donation), payment
information, records of donations, receipts of donations Payment information
Payment card number (credit or debit card), expiration date, or other financial
account number and account details Marketing preferences, marketing activities
and customer feedback Marketing preferences, or responses to voluntary customer
satisfaction surveys.



To improve our marketing communications, we may collect information about
interaction with, and responses to, our marketing communications

Attendance information Registration information; record of attendance at a
webinar or another event; contact information Other information you provide to
us For example, if you write a review of our Services or provide other
information to us in the course of your use of our Websites or Services

This information may be provided:

 * in the course of communications between you and us (including by phone,
   email, chat, Website or otherwise);
 * when you register for an account and/or fill out an application form;
 * when you inquire about our Services;
 * when you make a donation;
 * when you make a bid on an auction item;
 * when you register to attend one of our webinars or other events;
 * when you sign up for our e-newsletter or other materials;
 * when you post on our Websites’ publicly available features, such as online
   blogs; and
 * when you report a problem with our Websites or Services.

We also collect information from you automatically.  Like most website
administrators, we use log files that record information such as Internet
protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP),
referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and page navigation. We
gather this information to track website visitor movement in the aggregate, and
to gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. Our goal in gathering
this information is to learn how our customers and the public are using our
Services. IP addresses that are recorded by our log files are not linked to
personal identifiers.

From Whom Do We Collect This Information?

We may collect information directly from you.  We may also receive personal
information from other sources, including from our service providers (e.g., see
information below regarding Plaid), any of the other websites we operate or the
other services we provide (if you use any of them); information we obtain from
publicly available sources such as Facebook or LinkedIn; information from public
records in order to conduct due diligence or for conducting fraud prevention
checks or to supplement your profile (i.e., zip code); information from your
employer if you are using our Services through an employer-run program;
information from corporate partners if you are using our Services through a
corporate partner program.

Links and Third Party Websites

The Websites contain links to other sites and in certain circumstances, we use
third parties to provide you with certain services as discussed in greater
detail in our Services Agreement (which governs use by nonprofits who subscribe
to our Services) and Terms & Conditions (which govern use by donors, auction
participants, visitors of the Websites, and nonprofit organizations who may
receive donations through our Services but do not subscribe). Please be aware
that Network for Good is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other
sites or companies. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site
and to read the privacy statements of each and every website that collects
personal information. This Privacy Policy applies solely to information
collected via the Platforms.

If you elect to use the paperless EFT enrollment process the following
additional terms apply:

Network for Good uses Plaid Technologies, Inc. (“Plaid”) to gather your data
from financial institutions.  By electing to use the paperless EFT enrollment
process offered as part of the Services, you grant Network for Good and Plaid
the right, power and authority to act on your behalf to access and transmit your
personal and financial information being transferred, stored and processed by
Plaid in accordance with the Plaid Privacy Policy, which can be viewed
here: https://plaid.com/legal/#privacy-statement. You can withdraw from the
paperless EFT enrollment at any time by contacting support@networkforgood.com.

   this information to third parties if required by law, or where third parties
   process these data on behalf of Google. For more information about Google
   Analytics, or to opt out of Google Analytics, please go to the Google

   in order to show ads on third-party sites across the Internet.

   impressions, other uses of ad services, and interactions with these ad

   Analysis Service or FullStory, which provide us with a clearer picture of how
   you use the Websites, such as where you click on the Websites, non-sensitive
   text entered into the Websites, and mouse movements.  Your use of the Website

sign up for a Network for Good Profile, you agree and consent that Network for
Good may send you communication relating to our products, events, or recommended
charities.  When you, if a nonprofit, submit your organization’s contact

posting content, you understand that this information is publicly available.

Information You Provide to Social Networking Sites

The Websites allow you to access social networking sites including Facebook®,
Twitter®, and LinkedIn®.

How We Share Your Information

Recipient Charities

When you make a donation via a charity website that subscribes and links to a
DonateNow or Fundraising Pages, your full contact information will be shared
with that charity. When you make a donation via the Websites, other services, or
a partner website that uses our donation processing services, you may be asked
what information you wish to be shared with the recipient charity(ies). You may
have a choice of: full contact information, name and email address only, or no
contact information (an anonymous donation). When you register to participate in
an auction, your full contact information will be shared with the charity
sponsoring the auction.

Partner Companies

Employee giving: We provide employee giving solutions for partner companies.
When we are processing donations as part of a specific employee giving campaign
on the Websites or a page hosted by NFG, we do share some donor information
(such as name, email address, donation amount), but not credit card or financial
information, with the partner company to confirm that the donation was made by a
legitimate employee. In these instances, the partner company has disclosed its
relationship to us through its Intranet, website or employee communications
prior to the donation being made.

Corporate partners: We partner with other organizations and companies to enable
giving across the Internet. Please be aware that donor information shared
through a corporate partner site is accessible by the partner and us. We are not
responsible for the privacy practices of our partners and any donor information
shared through partner sites. Any such information is subject to that partner’s
privacy policy.

However, when donations are “Powered by Network for Good,” the donor information
shared with recipient charities is subject to our Privacy Policy.

Our Professional Advisers

We may disclose your information to our professional advisers, including
accountants, lawyers, and other professional advisers that assist us in carrying
out our business activities.

Complying With the Legal System

Though Network for Good makes every effort to preserve donor and customer
privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when we have a good-faith
belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial
proceeding, a court order, or legal process served on our organization.  We also
may disclose your personal information to third parties if we have reason to
believe that disclosing such information is necessary to conduct investigations
of possible breaches of law, to cooperate in any legal investigation, or to
identify, contact, or bring legal action against someone who may be violating
any agreement with us, including our Terms & Conditions.

Disclosure or Transfer of Data to Affiliates or Subsidiaries or in Connection
with Organization Change

We may disclose personal information that we collect or you provide to us with
our affiliates or subsidiaries that require access to your personal information
for business purposes.

We may disclose personal information that we collect or you provide as described
in this Privacy Policy to any buyer or other successor in the event of a merger,
divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or
transfer of some or all of our assets, whether as a going concern or as part of
bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, in which personal information
held by us about users of our Websites is among the assets transferred.

In the event that Network for Good is involved in a bankruptcy, merger,
acquisition, consolidation, change of control, liquidation, reorganization, or
sale or transfer of assets, your information may be sold or transferred as part
of that transaction. Our obligations in this Privacy Policy will apply to your
information as transferred to the new entity.

Disclosure or Transfer of Data to Service Providers

We may use service providers to help operate and improve our Websites, assist us
in providing products or services to you, to process and collect payments, to
provide analytics, or provide tools we embed into our Websites, products, and
services. We may share information we have about you with such service
providers, solely for their use to provide services to us. Please be aware that
such service providers have their own privacy policies, which govern their use
of your information collected directly from you. For a full list of such service
providers and their privacy policies, please contact us.

OTHER TERMS

Do Not Track Requests; Third-Party Tracking

Network for Good does not currently take actions to respond to Do Not Track
signals sent by your web browser because a uniform technological standard has
not yet been developed. We continue to review new technologies and may adopt a
standard once one is created.  Third parties, other than our service providers
(such as our website analytics providers), do not have authorization from us to
track which websites you visited prior to and after visiting the Websites.  That
said, we cannot control third-party tracking and there may be some third-party
tracking that occurs without our knowledge or consent.

Notice to Residents of Countries Outside the United States

We are based in the United States of America. Any personal information you
provide may be stored and maintained in a secure database in the United States
or transferred to a secure database outside the United States.  Personal
information may be accessed by us or transferred to us in the United States or
to our affiliates, business partners, or service providers elsewhere in the
world.  If you are located outside of the United States, be advised that any
information you provide to us will be transferred to and stored in the United
States and that, by submitting information to us, you explicitly authorize its
transfer and storage within the United States.  We will protect the privacy and
security of personal information according to this Privacy Policy regardless of
where it is processed or stored.

No Services For Minors

We do not knowingly collect information from minors. To use the Websites, you
must be the age of legal majority in your place of residence.  By using the
Websites, you hereby represent that you are at least the age of legal majority
in your place of residence.  We do not use an application or other mechanism to
determine the age of users of the Websites.   We will use commercially
reasonable efforts to delete information associated with a minor as soon as
practicable if we learn that a minor has submitted information to us. If you
believe we might have any information from or about a child under 18, please
contact us via the methods listed in the “Contact Us” section below.

Accessing, Modifying, Correcting and Deleting Your Information

If you would like to access, modify, correct, or delete your personal
information, please contact us via the methods listed in the “Contact Us”
section below. When you contact us, you may be required to provide us some
details to verify your identity in this case. We may not accommodate a request
to change or delete information if we believe the change would violate any law
or legal requirement, cause the information to be incorrect, or we are unable to
verify your identity.  In addition, if you have provided your information to the
charity or charities you supported through Network for Good in accordance with
this Privacy Policy, you may need to contact that charity instead, if the
relevant personal information is only accessible by that charity.  If we have
received your information from a third party, we may not be able to modify,
correct or delete your information.

2. SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR DONORS

The information that you provide is used only to complete your donation, provide
you with a donation receipt or, upon request, provide you with a donation
history. With your permission, your name and contact information will be
provided to the charity or charities you supported through Network for Good. If
you do not wish share your name and contact information with the charity or
charities you supported through Network for Good or you choose to make your
donation anonymously, Network for Good will not share your name or contact
information. Network for Good provides a field to include an optional dedication
with the donation. Network for Good reserves the right in its sole discretion to
remove text from this field before it is provided to the designated charity, for
example, if Network for Good deems it inappropriate, offensive, or
misrepresentative.

When you create an account with Network for Good you may choose to receive your
donation records at tax time and occasional email updates on your favorite
charities and The Good Card®. If you do not wish to hear from us, simply uncheck
the box on the bottom of the billing page, unsubscribe from a mailing using the
“unsubscribe” link, or contact us via the methods listed in the “Contact Us”
section above directly.

 * Add This Social Sharing: If you use the social sharing features on the
   Websites to inform a friend about our Websites or Services, you will be asked
   to provide the friend’s name and email address. Network for Good stores this
   information for the sole purpose of sending a one-time email and will not add
   your friend to our mailing list.
 * The Good Card®: If you purchase a Good Card on our Websites, all of your
   personal information is kept confidential by Network for Good. When the card
   recipient uses their card to give to charity their personal information is
   also kept confidential. We do not share the recipient’s information with the
   charity they choose. The recipient gets the option of letting the purchaser
   know they have redeemed their card.

Special note on employee giving:  Network for Good provides employee giving
solutions for partner companies. When Network for Good is processing donations
as part of a specific employee giving campaign on the Websites or a page hosted
by Network for Good, we do share some donor information (such as name, email
address, donation amount), but not credit card or financial information, with
the partner company to confirm that the donation was made by a legitimate
employee. In these instances, the partner company has disclosed its relationship
to Network for Good through its Intranet, website or employee communications
prior to the donation being made.

Special note on corporate partners:  Network for Good partners with other
organizations and companies to enable giving across the Internet. Please be
aware that donor information shared through a corporate partner site is
accessible by the partner and Network for Good. Network for Good is not
responsible for the privacy practices of our partners and any donor information
shared through partner sites. Any such information is subject to that partner’s
privacy policy.

However, when donations are “Powered by Network for Good,” the donor information
shared with recipient charities is subject to Network for Good’s Privacy Policy.

Special note on charities:  Each charity has its own policies regarding privacy
of donor information. Please contact the charity you contribute to directly to
learn about their privacy policies. We will only pass on the information you
provide us if you authorize us to do so.

What information is being shared by Network for Good with the recipient charity?

When you make a donation via a charity website that subscribes and links to a
DonateNow or any Fundraising pages hosted by Network for Good, your full contact
information will be shared with that charity.  When you make a donation via the
Websites, other Network for Good products, or a partner website that uses
Network for Good’s donation processing services, you may be asked what
information you wish to be shared with the recipient charity(ies). You may have
a choice of: full contact information, name and email address only, or no
personal information (anonymous).  Network for Good respects donor privacy and
only shares information with donor consent.  For example, when a donor has asked
to remain anonymous, no information is shared with the charity – we simply
confirm that a donation has been made.

How can I confirm what donor information was shared by Network for Good with the
recipient charity or request corrections?

If you want to confirm information shared with a recipient charity or change
your personal information, please contact our Customer Support Team, and a
Support Specialist will be happy to help you.  If you are looking to get in
touch directly with a charity, you can find contact information in GuideStar’s
database.

Charitable Solicitation Disclosure

Complying with Donor Advised Fund Regulations

Most donations through the Network for Good giving system are processed by the
Network for Good Donor Advised Fund (“N4G.ORG”), a section 501(c)(3) nonprofit,
donor advised fund, which will distribute your donation to the nonprofit
organization that you recommended.  However, some donations made through the
Network for Good giving system are processed directly by the nonprofit of your
choice and not by N4G.ORG.  When your donation is processed by N4G.ORG, as
required by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), N4G.ORG has exclusive legal
control over the donations to our donor-advised fund.  All donations are final
and may not be refunded.  In the event that a charity you have recommended does
not satisfy N4G.ORG’s criteria for receiving donations (e.g., it has been
classified by the IRS as a disqualified supporting organization, it cannot or
does not accept donations, is not recognized by the IRS as a section 501(c)(3)
public charity, or is not in good standing with federal and state regulators),
N4G.ORG will select an alternate charity to receive your donation funds.

Cookies

Network for Good uses “session cookies” while a visitor is making a donation via
Network for Good hypertext links, sometimes referred to as donation buttons.
“Cookies” are bits of information that are stored by your browser on your hard
drive. We use “session cookies” to help us verify a donor’s identity as they
move from one donation page to the next. Information collected by these session
cookies is not linked to personal identifiers.


3. SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR NONPROFITS, CUSTOMERS, AND POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS

You may choose to register to receive additional information or Services from
us. When you register, we request personal information about you such as your
name, email address and/or telephone number, and we may ask for other
information to enable us to provide a more relevant, personalized service to
you. The information you provide may be stored in our databases. We endeavor to
limit our requests for personal information to information we believe is
minimally necessary to achieve our stated collection purposes.  We may also
supplement your profile information with publicly available data, such as zip
codes and other demographic information.

We also collect payment information so that we can process one-time and/or
recurring fees and to carefully screen organizations for our subscription
services to ensure that their programmatic work meets the scope of our vision
statement. Applicants fill out an online Application Form, which our customer
service staff reviews. We may contact an applicant to verify information. The
one-time and recurring fees are processed through a credit card processing
company. Nonprofit customers can log into their password protected “My Account”
section to update any personal information.

Network for Good offers its own free e-Newsletter that it sends out to nonprofit
customers and other interested individuals that includes online fundraising and
marketing advice and training opportunities. Subscribers may choose to
unsubscribe at any time and unsubscribe information is located at the bottom of
each e-Newsletter. Individuals who donate to nonprofits through the Network for
Good DonateNow or other Fundraising page service are not subscribed to this
e-Newsletter.

When you download any of our content, such as eGuides, or register for one of
our webinars, we collect your personal and organizational information such as:
name, address, email address, phone number, etc. Webinar registration
information is collected through an event registration service provider who
shares the information with Network for Good, but that service provider is not
permitted by us to retain, share, store, or use personal information for any
secondary purposes. Subscribers may choose to unsubscribe at any time and
unsubscribe information is located at the bottom of each e-Newsletter or email
communication.

Cookies

For our nonprofit customers, we use “session cookies” and “persistent cookies”
