Privacy Policy

Overview

We respect your right to privacy. This privacy policy describes how we use the personal information you provide. You may want to check this policy from time to time as any changes will be updated here.

What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Contact forms

If you email us and provide personally identifiable information, we will only use that information to respond to your email.

Donation forms

When you make a donation, we collect personal data to process the donation and requests related to the donation form (for example, newsletter requests and tribute information). We use two third parties to help process these donations:

  • We use WPMU DEV’s Forminator plugin to provide the form that transfers the information from the form to Stripe. This data is sent securely to Stripe and stored there. See WPMU DEV’s plugin information.
  • Stripe is used for the actual online payment processing. Please see the Stripe Global Privacy Policy for details. We store metadata from the donation form in our Stripe account to help process your donation and related requests, such as the newsletter request and tribute information.

Note: If you want to cancel future recurring donations, please contact Birthright of Pittsburgh. Currently recurring donations cannot be canceled directly by customers.

In addition, we use the hCaptcha anti-bot service (“hCaptcha”) provided by Intuition Machines, Inc., a US Corporation in Delaware (“IMI”). hCaptcha is used to verify whether information entered in a form was performed by a human or robot. This analysis starts automatically when the visitor enters a part of the website with hCaptcha enabled. hCaptcha evaluates various information (IP address, length of time on site, mouse movements, etc). This data is forwarded to IMI. We have a legitimate interest in protecting our site from automated crawling, spam, and other malicious activity. IMI acts as a “data processor” acting on behalf of customers. For more information about hCaptcha and IMI’s privacy policy and terms of use, please visit https://www.hcaptcha.com/privacy and https://www.hcaptcha.com/terms.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Analytics

We use Google Search Console, an analytic service (https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=policies) to improve our services and our website. This includes statistics such as query terms, pages visited, the type of device used, and the country from which the website was visited. These aggregate statistics do not contain personal information and cannot be used to gather such information.
