Alumni Stories

RYSE Hawaii is committed to respecting the privacy of our donors.

Information Collected

Here are the types of donor information that we collect and maintain:

• Contact information: name, organization/company, complete address, phone number, email address
• Donation information: amounts donated, date of donation(s), method and stimulus
• Your requests and comments
• Non-personally identifiable information, such as how many hits each RYSE website page receives, and if the visitor is repeat or new. This requires that a ‘cookie’ be sent to your web browser.

How Information is Used

RYSE uses your data to maintain records of donations, send acknowledgements, mail year-end tax statements to you, send newsletters, notices and direct mail pieces, and for internal marketing purposes.

We normally add you to our mailing list, unless you request otherwise. Our third-party mailing service is contractually obligated to treat the lists with confidentiality and is prohibited from transferring them elsewhere.

We use your written comments/letters occasionally to post on our website (in an anonymous fashion), and to respond to your inquiries.

Credit card numbers are NOT retained once processed

Our website has a SSL certificate. We report contributions over $5000 on IRS Form 990, Schedule B.

We use website statistics to analyze our website usage.

No Sharing of Personal Information

RYSE will not sell, rent, trade or transfer your personal information to outside organizations. Use of donor information will be limited to the internal purposes of RYSE and only to further the mission of RYSE. Nevertheless, security measures may not prevent all losses, and RYSE is not responsible for any damages or liabilities relating to security failures.
