Privacy Policy

Effective Date: October 1, 2025

Maricopa Birds Alliance (“we,” “our,” or “us”) values your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you visit our website https://www.maricopabirdsallience.com, subscribe to our newsletter, or make a donation.


Information We Collect

We collect information in the following ways:

  • Newsletter Subscription: When you sign up for our newsletter, we collect your email address.

  • Donations: When you make a donation, our payment processor may collect personal and payment information necessary to process the transaction. If you choose to donate anonymously, we only record the donation amount and transaction details without linking it to your personal information.

  • Automatically Collected Data: Like most websites, we collect limited technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, and general site usage data through cookies and analytics tools. This helps us improve our website and services.


How We Use Your Information

We use collected information to:

  • Send you newsletters, updates, and organizational announcements (if you opt-in).

  • Process and acknowledge donations.

  • Maintain anonymous donation records for financial reporting.

  • Improve website performance, security, and user experience.


How We Share Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
We may share information only in the following cases:

  • With trusted third-party service providers (such as email or payment processors) who perform services on our behalf.

  • If required by law, legal process, or governmental request.

  • To protect the rights, property, or safety of Maricopa Birds Alliance, our supporters, or the public.


Donations and Payment Processing

We use secure third-party payment processors to handle donations. Payment information (such as credit card details) is not stored or accessible by us. For anonymous donations, no personally identifying information is collected beyond the transaction itself.


Cookies and Analytics

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to improve functionality, measure traffic, and understand visitor interactions. You can adjust your browser settings to block cookies, but this may affect certain features of the site.

  • Cookies: You may disable cookies through your browser settings.

  • Donation Preferences: You may choose to donate anonymously or include your information for acknowledgment.


Data Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect the information we collect. However, no online system is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute protection.


Children’s Privacy

Our website is not directed toward children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware of such collection, we will promptly delete it.


External Links

Our website may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites.
