Privacy Policy

Effective Date: August 29, 2026

Freedom Families Foundation (“Freedom Families Foundation,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we may collect through freedomfamiliesfoundation.org, how we use it, and how we protect it.

Information We Collect

We collect only information that visitors voluntarily provide to us or that is reasonably necessary to operate and secure our website.

Grant Inquiries

If you submit a Grant Inquiry, we may collect information such as:

• • First and last name

• • Email address

• • Phone number

• • Branch of military service

• • Adoption status

• • Date an adoption became legally final

• • How you heard about Freedom Families Foundation

• • Any additional information you voluntarily provide about your family’s adoption journey or request for assistance

Only certain basic contact information is required to submit an initial Grant Inquiry. Other information may be optional.

If a family later proceeds to a full grant application, additional documentation may be requested as necessary to evaluate eligibility and administer the grant program.

Donations

If you make a donation, information necessary to process that donation may be collected by our third-party donation or payment-processing provider.

Freedom Families Foundation does not directly collect or store your full payment-card information on this website.

Email Updates

Website and Security Information

Our website host, security providers, WordPress, and installed website tools may automatically process limited technical information necessary to operate and protect the website, such as IP address, browser type, device information, access times, security events, and server logs.

We do not currently use advertising or behavioral-tracking tools to build profiles of website visitors.

How We Use Information

We may use information collected through the website to:

• • Respond to questions and Grant Inquiries

• • Determine whether a family may qualify for our grant program

• • Communicate with applicants about next steps

• • Review and administer grant applications and awards

• • Process and acknowledge charitable donations

• • Maintain and improve our website

• • Detect fraud, abuse, malware, or other security threats

• • Meet legal, accounting, tax, and nonprofit recordkeeping requirements
  • Send occasional email updates to people who are subscribed

How We Share Information

Freedom Families Foundation does not sell personal information.

We may share limited information with service providers that help us operate the organization or website, such as website hosting, email, security, donation-processing, or other technology providers. These providers receive information only as reasonably necessary to perform their services.

We may also disclose information when required by law or when reasonably necessary to protect the rights, safety, or security of Freedom Families Foundation, our applicants, donors, website visitors, or others.

We do not provide applicant information to the Department of Defense or military organizations for marketing purposes.

Military and Grant Information

Because our grant program serves active-duty military families, applicants who proceed beyond the initial inquiry may be asked to provide documentation confirming military status, adoption finalization, and eligible adoption-related expenses.

We seek to collect only the information reasonably necessary to determine eligibility, document grant decisions, and administer charitable awards.

Cookies

Our website and the services necessary to operate it may use essential cookies or similar technologies for functions such as website administration, security, session management, or form functionality.

We do not currently use advertising cookies or behavioral-tracking cookies for targeted advertising.

Data Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures intended to protect information submitted through our website. However, no website, email system, or electronic transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Please do not submit sensitive personal information through the initial Grant Inquiry unless specifically requested.

Data Retention

We may retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and applicable grant-administration, legal, tax, accounting, security, and nonprofit recordkeeping needs.

Your Choices

You may contact us to ask about personal information you have submitted to Freedom Families Foundation or to request that information be corrected or deleted, subject to applicable legal, tax, accounting, grant, and recordkeeping obligations.

Children’s Privacy

This website is intended for adults seeking information about Freedom Families Foundation, adoption assistance, or charitable giving. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 through this website.

Third-Party Websites

Our website may contain links to third-party websites or services. Freedom Families Foundation is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third parties. We encourage visitors to review the privacy policies of any third-party services they use.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as our website, programs, or legal obligations change. The effective date at the top of this page will reflect the most recent revision.
