Donation Information
Financial information is collected during the online donation process but is not stored by Family Eldercare. When placing a donation online, you will be re-directed to an external vendor that receives your payment information and processes the donation. The vendor stores financial information you provide to it according to its privacy policies. Family Eldercare only receives and maintains a donor’s contact information, including name, email, phone, and address.

Donor contact information collected by Family Eldercare during the online donation process is stored within its donor management database. For donations placed over the phone, Family Eldercare similarly stores donor contact information, but also financial information for recurring payments, within our donor management database. We encrypt financial information maintained in our donor management database, and access to the database is restricted to personnel with a legitimate business need to access or modify the information contained therein.
