3. Legal Basis for Processing (EU/EEA Visitors)

If you are located in the European Union (EU) or European Economic Area (EEA), we will only process your personal data when we have a valid legal basis, including:

6. How We Store and Protect Your Data

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your data from unauthorized access or misuse. Credit card transactions are processed securely by third-party payment gateways (e.g., Stripe, PayPal) and are not stored on our servers.

We retain your data only as long as necessary for the purpose it was collected, or as required by law (e.g., donation records for tax compliance).

These third parties are contractually obligated to protect your information and comply with data protection regulations.

8. International Data Transfers

If you are located outside the United States, please note that your data may be transferred to—and stored or processed in—the U.S., where our servers and third-party providers are located. We take appropriate safeguards to protect your data during such transfers, including using standard contractual clauses where applicable.
