This Privacy Notice explains how Nonprofit Finance Fund (“NFF”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and otherwise processes personal data in connection with our website, as well as any specific service or application that references or links to this Privacy Notice.
This Privacy Notice does not address our privacy practices relating to NFF job applicants, employees and other personnel, nor data that is not subject to applicable data protection laws (such as deidentified or publicly available information). This Privacy Notice is also not a contract and does not create any legal rights or obligations not otherwise provided by law.
Our Collection and Use of Personal Data
The categories of personal data we collect depend on how you interact with us and our services. For example, you may provide us your personal data directly when you sign up for our mailing list, make a donation, participate in an event or survey or otherwise contact us or interact with us.
We also collect personal data automatically when you interact with our websites and other services and may also collect personal data from other sources and third parties.

We collect the following categories of personal data individuals provide us:

Please note that we use third-party payment providers to process payments made to us. We do not retain any personally identifiable financial information, such as payment card number, you provide these third-party payment providers in connection with payments. Rather, all such information is provided directly by you to our third-party payment providers. The payment provider’s use of your personal data is governed by their privacy notice.

If you choose to contact us, we may need additional information to fulfill the request or respond to your inquiry. We may provide additional privacy disclosures where the scope of the request we receive or personal data we require fall outside the scope of this Privacy Notice. In that case, the additional privacy disclosures will govern how we may process the information you provide at that time.
