  • Compile anonymous statistical data and analysis for use internally.
  • Deliver targeted notifications and updates regarding your donation status.

4. Disclosure of Your Information

We may share information we have collected about you in certain situations. Your information may be disclosed as follows:

  • To Stores and Nonprofits: If you are a donor, your pickup details are shared with the specific organization managing your donation.
  • Third-Party Service Providers: We may share your information with third parties that perform services for us or on our behalf, including payment processing (Stripe) and address verification services.

5. Security of Your Information

We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your personal information. While we have taken reasonable steps to secure the personal information you provide to us, please be aware that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse.
