Who we are
Warriors Rest operates https://wayofrest.org. Questions about this policy or your personal information may be sent to info@wayofrest.org.
Information we collect
When you contact us, make a gift, or use a donor account, we collect the information you provide. Depending on the form or service, this may include your name, email address, contact or billing address, message, account information, and giving preferences.
Our website uses GiveWP to maintain donor and gift records. These records may include gift amounts, dates, payment status, transaction identifiers, and recurring-giving details.
Our hosting and security services may also record technical information, such as your IP address, browser information, requested pages, and access times, to operate and protect the website.
How we use information
We use this information to:
- Respond to messages and requests.
- Process and record gifts and recurring contributions.
- Provide donor-account access and giving history.
- Send receipts, verification messages, and account or payment notices.
- Maintain financial records and meet applicable obligations.
- Protect the website, prevent misuse, and troubleshoot problems.
Payments
Payments are processed through PayPal, including the payment options available through our giving form. PayPal handles payment credentials; Warriors Rest receives transaction information needed to administer gifts.
PayPal’s collection and use of information is governed by its own Privacy Statement.
Cookies and third-party services
WordPress and GiveWP use cookies or similar technologies to support login sessions, donor verification, preferences, and giving functionality. Disabling cookies may prevent some features from working correctly.
Payment services and embedded content, such as videos, may collect technical information and use their own cookies or similar technologies. Their privacy policies govern that activity.
Service providers and access
Information is processed through services used to operate the website, including HostGator for hosting, PayPal for payments, and our configured email-delivery services.
Website backups are created using UpdraftPlus and stored in Google Drive. Backups may contain personal information held by the website.
Authorized administrators may access information as needed to manage the website, respond to requests, and administer gifts. Information may also be disclosed when required by law or reasonably necessary to address fraud, security incidents, or legal claims.
Retention
We retain personal information for as long as needed for the purposes described here, including account administration, correspondence, financial recordkeeping, and applicable legal obligations.
Deleted information may remain in backups until those backups are replaced or expire under our retention settings.
Your requests
Contact info@wayofrest.org to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we hold about you. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.
Some records may need to be retained for financial, administrative, security, or legal reasons. Requests concerning information held independently by PayPal should also be directed to PayPal.
Security
We use safeguards intended to protect personal information, including HTTPS, administrator authentication, and backups. No website or electronic transmission can be guaranteed completely secure.
