This Privacy Policy addresses how we collect and use the personal information collected through the Site, as well as how we use donor information that may be provided to Amoud Foundation via other means.
The Privacy Policy does not apply to any links to third-party websites or applications. These other websites and applications will have their own privacy policies that you should review.

How We Collect Information
Amoud Foundation may collect information regarding visitors to the Site, including IP address, browser, and domain information, and information volunteered by you, such as e-mail address, contact information (which may include phone numbers) and, for donations and purchases, credit card information. We may also monitor and track information, such as visitor usage patterns using standard website tracking software. When you are on this Site and are asked for personal information, you are sharing that information with Amoud Foundation alone, unless stated otherwise. Amoud Foundation may share your personal information with its partner companies or service providers in order to complete your donation or purchase, fulfill your order and answer your questions.
Information We Collect
Amoud Foundation collects personally identifiable information (which may include name, email address, physical address, and phone number) from visitors and other supporters when they register to join our organization, become a member, make a donation or purchase online or offline, subscribe to our e-newsletter, take an action concerning an issue using our service, or otherwise participate in one of our online communities. Please note that our web server does not automatically recognise or collect personal information based on your e-mail address; the personal information we collect is always voluntarily submitted by you.
In addition, Amoud Foundation uses third party services throughout the Site, such as Google Analytics and Adroll, to place first party and/or third party cookies (see Use of Cookies below) on devices that access the Site. These cookies enable Amoud Foundation to track how our Site is used, which portions of the Site are visited and which items our visitors find most interesting. To opt out of use of our cookies for tracking, you may visit Google’s advertising policy page.
We also use certain third party service providers to place advertisements to market Amoud Foundation on sites across the web. We place a cookie on your browser, and then a service such as Google reads these cookies and may serve an ad for Amoud Foundation on a 3rd party site. You may opt out of this ad serving by visiting Google’s advertising policy page. If you are concerned about 3rd party cookies served by networks, you should also visit the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page.
Amoud Foundation works diligently to ensure that our advertisements do not appear on extremist or fake news websites. However, due to the nature of digital advertising, this can occur without our knowledge. If you see a Amoud Foundation advertisement on such a website, please let us know by sending an e-mail to [email protected] so that we may investigate.
Use of Information
Amoud Foundation uses the personally identifiable information we collect about you to be able to send you communications such as our e-newsletter, various printed publications or mail appeals, and text messages (if you have opted-in at the time of providing your mobile phone number; standard text messaging rates may apply) in furtherance of our fundraising, educational, and advocacy objectives. If you have subscribed to Amoud Foundation’s eCommunity, we will generally send you several communications per month.
If you desire to opt-out of receiving communications from Amoud Foundation, you may unsubscribe here or by sending an unsubscribe request by e-mail to [email protected]. Requests to unsubscribe may not take effect immediately. We use the information we collect with respect to accessing and using the Site to help administer and improve the Site and for other internal purposes.
Sharing of Information
Except as set forth in this Policy, Amoud Foundation will not disclose any of your personally identifiable information to third parties, except when we have your permission or under special circumstances, such as when we believe in good faith that the law requires it. Amoud Foundation is funded solely through private donations. This policy applies to all donations whether made online or offline. Amoud Foundation will never share or lend your Personal information to any other charity.
We will not sell your personal information to other organizations for use by them in any way, including in their own direct marketing activities.
Please note: We are aware of and sensitive to the issue of unsolicited e-mail (“spam”); therefore Amoud Foundation will never rent, trade or sell your e-mail address to a third party for directed marketing of commercial products. We may, from time to time, allow our service providers to draw conclusions regarding user behaviors from demographic and aggregated information.
Update, Correct, or Delete Personally Identifiable Information
The accuracy of your individual information is important to Amoud Foundation. Additionally, we have tried to streamline our operations by making it easy for you to control the information that we maintain about you. For inquiries or to change your personal information, please send an e-mail to [email protected].
Protecting Personally Identifiable Information
When you give Amoud Foundation personally identifiable information, we take steps to treat your information securely. Amoud Foundation uses industry-standard encryption technologies when transferring and receiving sensitive visitor data (e.g., financial information) within the Sites. All online donations are processed via third parties using secure servers. Amoud Foundation is PCI compliant and works only with vendors who are also PCI compliant for handling personally identifiable information and/or financial transactions. More information can be found on the PCI Security and Standards Council website. Amoud Foundation does not store your credit card information for future use. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personally identifiable information, Amoud Foundation cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we use commercially reasonable efforts to secure it on our systems, and to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of information that we have collected.
Use of Cookies
Cookies are small text-only files that are stored on your computer and that can be used to help identify you when you visit any of the Sites. A cookie cannot read data off of your computer hard disk, nor can it read cookie files created by other websites. We may use cookies to make visiting and using our Sites easier, for instance, so that you do not have to continually re-enter information, and so that we can tailor the Sites to your expressed preferences.
Most web browsers accept cookies. However, if you wish, you can usually set your browser to refuse cookies, or to notify you when you receive a new cookie. Note that if cookies are disabled, you may not be able to enjoy all the interactive features of the Sites. For more information about cookies, including instructions on how to stop cookies being installed on your browser, please see www.allaboutcookies.org.
Links to Third-party Sites
The Sites may provide links to several third party websites. While we make efforts to choose our links carefully, we cannot take responsibility for the content of linked websites, or for the privacy policies of websites we link to. Since we do not control those websites, we encourage you to review the privacy policies on those websites prior to any use.
Children’s Privacy
If you are the parent or guardian of a child under 13 and believe your child is using our Site, please contact us at [email protected]. Upon request, the parent or guardian of a child under 13 may review and request the deletion of such child’s personally identifiable information, as well as refuse to permit the further collection or use of such information. If we discover that a user is under the age of 13, we will delete their account and all personally identifiable information immediately.
Privacy rights for California residents
If you are a California resident, California Civil Code Section 1798.83 permits you to request information regarding the disclosure of your personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to [email protected].
