Privacy Policy

When you fill out an adoption, foster, or volunteer application, we collect the details you provide — such as your name, email address, home address, household information, and references.

When you donate, payment details are processed securely by our payment provider. We never see or store your full card number.

Like most websites, we may collect basic technical information such as your browser type and pages visited to help us improve the site.

To review and process adoption, foster, and volunteer applications.

To communicate with you about dogs in our care, events, and rescue updates.

To process donations and send donation receipts for tax purposes.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to anyone.

We only share information when needed to complete an adoption or foster placement (for example, with a veterinarian you list as a reference), when required by law, or with service providers who help us operate — such as our payment processor — under strict confidentiality.

Our site may use simple cookies or similar technologies to remember preferences and understand how visitors use the site. You can disable cookies in your browser settings.

We keep application and donation records only as long as needed for rescue operations, legal, and tax requirements, then delete or anonymize them.

You may ask us to view, correct, or delete your personal information at any time by emailing us. You can also opt out of non-essential emails at any time.

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect your information. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, but we work to protect your data.

Our website and services are not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be posted on this page with the effective date below.
