Privacy policy

What we collect

Information you give us. When you use the "Start a conversation" form on our Apply page, we collect what you enter: your name, your organization, your email address, your website if you add one, the impact area you choose, and what you tell us about your work. If you email or call us, we receive whatever you choose to share.

Information collected automatically. We use Google Analytics to understand how people use the site: which pages they visit, which files they download, how they found us, and general details about their device, browser, and approximate location (city or region). Google Analytics uses cookies to do this. It does not tell us who you are.

Squarespace, which hosts our site, also uses cookies the site needs to work, such as those that keep it secure, and collects basic visit statistics for us.

How we use it

• To reply to your inquiry and connect you with the right member of our program team

• To keep a record of inquiries so we can follow up

• To learn which pages and resources are useful, and improve the site

We do not sell, rent, or trade your information. We do not use it for advertising, and filling out a form does not add you to a mailing list.

Who else sees it

We share information only with companies that help us run the site and manage inquiries, and only so they can do that work:

• Squarespace, which hosts the site and receives form submissions

• Our email provider, which delivers form submissions to our program team

• Google, which provides Google Analytics

Each follows its own privacy policy. We may also share information when the law requires it.

Grantee Portal

Grant applications and reports go through Foundant, a separate system with its own privacy policy. This policy does not cover information you submit there.

How long we keep it

We keep inquiry records for up to three years, then delete them. Google Analytics keeps detailed usage data for 14 months.

Your choices

• To stop Google Analytics from collecting data about you, install Google's opt-out browser add-on or block cookies in your browser. The site still works either way.

• To ask what information we hold about you, or to have it corrected or deleted, email info@hydefoundation.org.

Children

This site is meant for adults and organizations. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.

Links to other sites

Our pages link to partner organizations and news coverage. Those sites have their own privacy practices.

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we will post the new version here and update the date at the top.
