The American Development Foundation ("ADF," "we," "us") is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. This policy explains what information we collect on americandevelopmentfoundation.org, how we use it, and the choices you have.
Information We Collect
Information you give us. If you join our mailing list or email us at [email protected], we collect your email address and anything you choose to include in your message. That is the only personal information our website asks for. We do not request or store payment information, and we do not sell anything on this site.
Information collected automatically. Our website is served through Cloudflare, which processes standard technical data (such as IP address, browser type, and pages requested) to deliver and secure the site. We may review aggregate, non-identifying traffic statistics to understand which resources are most useful.
How We Use Your Information
- To send the newsletter and event announcements you signed up for.
- To respond to questions you send us.
- To operate, secure, and improve the website and our free educational programs.
What We Do Not Do
- We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
- We do not run advertising on this website and we do not share your information with advertisers.
- We do not send you marketing for any business or third party. Our communications are limited to the Foundation's own educational content and events.
Email Choices
Every newsletter we send includes a way to unsubscribe, and you can opt out at any time by emailing [email protected] with the word "unsubscribe." We honor removal requests promptly.
Cookies
We do not set advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. Cloudflare may set strictly functional cookies needed to serve and secure the site.
Data Retention and Security
Mailing-list addresses are kept only as long as needed to operate the newsletter or until you unsubscribe. Access to subscriber information is limited to people who administer the Foundation's communications.
Children
Our content is written for business owners and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to This Policy
If we change this policy, we will post the updated version on this page with a new effective date.
