Raisefree is based in the United States. Your information may be processed in the United States and other jurisdictions where Raisefree, Payment Partners, Partner Entities, and service providers operate, subject to applicable law and safeguards.
We retain information as needed to provide the Platform, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and protect users. We use reasonable safeguards, but no system is 100% secure.
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain processing of your data, and to opt out of marketing emails. Use unsubscribe links in emails or contact us to make a request. We may verify your identity before fulfilling requests.
For India-based campaigns, Raisefree may share limited account, campaign, contribution, verification, and compliance-related information with authorized Payment Partners and Crowdera Foundation (India) where needed for payment enablement, compliance workflows, or designated charitable/tax-receipting programs. These parties may process data under their own privacy policies and contractual obligations.
We may update this Privacy Policy by posting an updated version on the Platform with a new "Last Updated" date.
