Privacy Policy
How Heal the Heart Foundation collects, uses, protects, and retains information.
Information we collect
We collect information you voluntarily provide through assistance, contact, involvement, newsletter, and donation forms. Assistance forms are designed not to collect Social Security numbers, banking details, medical records, or detailed diagnoses.
How information is used
Information is used to review requests, respond to inquiries, administer charitable programs, manage relationships, provide receipts, and send updates when consent is given.
How information is protected
Form submissions are stored in private, access-controlled systems and are not publicly available. Access should be limited to authorized people with a legitimate operational need.
Sharing and retention
Information is not sold. It may be shared with service providers supporting Foundation operations or when required by law. Records are retained only as long as reasonably necessary for charitable, legal, and operational purposes.
Your choices
You may request correction or deletion where legally permitted and may unsubscribe from newsletters at any time.
Contact
Privacy questions may be mailed to the Foundation’s listed mailing address until an official privacy email is published.
