Privacy Policy

Your information, handled with care

Effective February 13, 2026 · Last updated June 10, 2026

What we collect

We only collect personal information you choose to give us, such as:

  • Your name, email address, and mailing address when you request a seed pack, contact us, or inquire about volunteering.
  • Donation details (amount and date) reported to us by our payment processor when you give.

How we use it

  • To mail seed packs and respond to your requests.
  • To process donations and provide tax receipts.
  • To send updates about our sanctuary and programs, if you've asked for them.

Payments

Donations are processed by PayPal Giving Fund on PayPal's secure platform. Your card or bank details are entered on PayPal's site and are never transmitted to or stored by Copper Sanctuary. All payment pages use encrypted (TLS/SSL) connections.

What we never do

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal information to outside parties. We work only with trusted service providers who help us operate this website, under confidentiality obligations.

Cookies & advertising

We use Google tools (such as Google Ads and its conversion measurement) to understand how people find us and whether our outreach works. These tools may set cookies and collect standard usage data such as pages visited and ad clicks. They do not give us access to your identity, and we never combine advertising data with the personal information you send us. You can opt out of personalized advertising at adssettings.google.com. External services we link to (such as PayPal and Google Fonts) have their own privacy policies.

Your rights

You may access, correct, or delete your personal information at any time by emailing us. We'll confirm within a few days.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, we'll post the updated version here with a new "last updated" date.
