This privacy policy details the ways we collect information from you; how we use that information; your ability to access, update, or request that we delete your information; our commitment to data security; changes to this policy; and how you may reach us should you have any questions.
 
Please review this information and let us know if you have any questions.
 
Note: This policy does not apply to third-party websites linked on our website. We cannot guarantee that these third parties handle your data in the same way we do. We recommend you read their privacy statements prior to using any websites linked from ours. 

The Information We Collect

This notice applies to all information collected or submitted on the Rainbow Village website, https://rainbowvillage.org/, including but not limited to newsletter signups, donations, volunteer interest, event signups and requests for information on Rainbow Village‘s services. The types of information we collect may include, but are not limited to, names (individual and business names), physical/mailing addresses, email addresses, and phone numbers.

The Ways We Use the Information We Collect

We use the information you provide about yourself through our website to contact you regarding the specific reason you submitted your information, such as to send our newsletter and event announcements, to provide more information about volunteering with us, and to respond to your request for additional information about Rainbow Village‘s services. We do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent to which it is required by law for the protection of our legal rights.

Complianz

We use Complianz, a cookie consent management platform, to record and remember your cookie preferences. This tool places a strictly necessary/functional cookie on your device to store your consent choices so that we can comply with applicable privacy laws (such as GDPR and/or CCPA) and avoid asking for your consent repeatedly. This cookie does not track your browsing activity and is not used for advertising or analytics purposes. Denying consent may adversely affect certain features of this website.
 
For more information, please see the Complianz privacy policy.

Google Analytics & Visitor Tracking

Google Analytics
The Rainbow Village website, https://rainbowvillage.org/, uses Google Analytics to collect standard internet log information as well as details regarding visitor behavior patterns. We use this to learn facts about our website, such as the number of visitors to particular pages, the content they are reading, and where they are spending time on our website. The information collected is always processed in a way that will not identify visitors. We do not make attempts to discover the identities of our website visitors, nor do we allow Google to attempt to learn the identities of our website visitors.
 
Data is not collected until you consent to the statistics cookies using the Manage Consent banner located in the bottom-right corner of this site. If you have previously consented and later wish to withdraw consent, you may do so by clicking Manage Consent in the bottom-right corner of the website to update your preferences. If you withdraw your consent, data collection will cease.
 
For more information on Google’s data practices, review Google’s privacy policy and terms of service.
 
Google Tag Manager
We use Google Tag Manager (GTM) to deploy tracking tags, including Google Analytics and other measurement or advertising tools. GTM doesn’t collect personal information; it manages when other tags load. 
 
As with Google Analytics, tags deployed through GTM will not run or collect data until you provide consent. These tags are blocked until consent is provided. If you previously opted to consent and later wish to withdraw consent, you may do so by clicking Manage Consent in the bottom-right corner of the website. If you withdraw consent, affected tags will stop collecting data. 
 
For more information on Google’s data practices, review the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

Embedded Content

YouTube
Our site may contain embedded YouTube videos. When you view them, YouTube (Google) may collect data and set cookies. These load only after you accept marketing cookies. Data may be transferred to the US. Please see the 
YouTube privacy policy for more information.

Forms & Email Marketing

We collect personal information when you register to receive email communication (newsletters, announcements, etc.) from Rainbow Village., as well as for volunteer signups We use the information collected for multiple reasons, such as to answer questions you have asked us; to contact you if we need to obtain or provide additional info; to confirm our records are correct; and to check in once in a while to make sure you’re happy and satisfied. We do not, and never will, sell, rent, or trade our email lists with other organizations or businesses.
 
​Constant Contact
We use Constant Contact to deliver newsletters and other email communication. Through this platform, we gather information regarding email open rates and clicks using industry-standard technologies, which help us monitor and improve our newsletters to help us deliver content you want to read. For more information, please see Constant Contact‘s privacy policy. You can unsubscribe at any time using the Unsubscribe link at the bottom of our emails.
 
Constant Contact Forms by MailMunch
We use Constant Contact Forms by MailMunch for our newsletter signup form. When you click the newsletter signup button on our website, you will be directed to a form on a landing page hosted by Constant Contact (though its MailMunch service), rather than our website. The information you provide (name, email address, phone number, mailing address, and company) is collected through that platform and stored in our Constant Contact account. We use this information only to send you our newsletter and related updates. We do not sell or rent your personal information. You can unsubscribe at any time using the Unsubscribe link at the bottom of our emails.
 
Because this form is hosted by a third party, their handling of your information, including any cookies or similar technologies they use on that page, is governed by their own policies. For more information, see the Constant Contact privacy policy and the MailMunch privacy policy.
 
Formstack
Our volunteer interest contact form is hosted by Formstack. When you click the Take the Next Step button on our Volunteer page, you will be directed to a form on the Formstack website to complete. The information you submit is processed and stored by Formstack on our behalf.
 
Because this form is hosted by a third party, their handling of your information, including any cookies or similar technologies they use on that page, is governed by their own policies. Please see the Formstack Privacy Policy for more information.
 
Gravity Forms
We also use Gravity Forms to build certain contact forms on this site. When you submit a form, we collect the information you enter, such as your name, email address, and message, so we can respond to you. For more information, please see the Gravity Forms privacy policy. 

Online Donations

We accept online donations through a donation form from OneCause, a third-party fundraising platform (now part of Bonterra), that is directly embedded on our Donate page. When you enter information into that donation form, you are providing it to OneCause, not Rainbow Village. We do not process, receive, or store your payment information. That information is encrypted by OneCause’s PCI-compliant payment processors.
 
The form may collect information such as your name, contact information, employer (for matching gifts), and payment details, and may use cookies and Google Analytics/reCAPTCHA for security and functionality. This data is governed by OneCause’s privacy and security policy, not ours.
 
After your donation is processed, OneCause shares your name, contact info, and gift details with us so we can issue a tax receipt and maintain donor records. That information is then covered by our privacy policy.

Website Security & Accessibility

You may accept or deny consent through the Manage Consent banner located at the bottom-right corner of the website. You can manage or withdraw your consent at any time through the Manage Consent banner.
