Information We Collect Automatically

When you visit the Site, we and our service providers may automatically collect certain technical information, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, the website that referred you, and the date and time of your visit. This information helps us keep the Site secure, understand how it is used, and improve it.

We use cookies and similar technologies for purposes such as:

Keeping items in your shopping cart and completing checkout.
Remembering your preferences and keeping you signed in where applicable.
Understanding how visitors arrive at and use the Site, including how store orders originate.
Protecting our forms from spam and abuse (for example, through Google reCAPTCHA).

You can set your browser to refuse or delete cookies, but some parts of the Site, such as the store and cart, may not work properly without them.

We use the information we collect to:

Deliver, manage, and improve our programs, coaching, mentoring, workshops, and events.
Review applications and communicate with applicants, participants, and their parents or guardians.
Respond to your questions and requests.
Process donations, send receipts and acknowledgments, and maintain donor records.

How We Share Your Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information, and we do not share donor information with other organizations for their own marketing purposes. We share information only as described below:

Service providers who help us operate the Site and our organization, such as website hosting and security, form processing, email communications, donor management and online giving (including Bloomerang), and payment processing for store purchases. These providers may use your information only to perform services for us.
Program partners, coaches, and mentors, when needed to deliver a program you or your child has enrolled in, and only to the extent necessary.
Legal and safety reasons, when required by law, subpoena, or other legal process, or when we believe disclosure is needed to protect the rights, property, or safety of Mission Accomplished, our participants, or others.
With your consent, or at your direction.

We may share aggregated or de-identified information that does not identify you, for example in grant reports or impact summaries.

Photos, Stories, and Testimonials

We love to celebrate our participants’ achievements. We will only publish the name, photograph, video, or story of a program participant on our Site, social media, or publications with appropriate permission, and for participants under 18, with the permission of a parent or guardian. If you would like content about you or your child removed, please contact us.

Children’s Privacy

Many of our programs serve teens. The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13. Program applications and registrations for participants under 18 should be completed or approved by a parent or legal guardian.

If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal information through the Site without parental consent, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.

Payments and Donations

Online donations and store payments are processed by trusted third-party payment processors and donation platforms. We do not store full credit card or bank account numbers on our servers. Your payment information is handled by these providers in accordance with their own privacy policies and security standards.

Third-Party Services and Links

The Site may use or link to third-party services, including Google reCAPTCHA and Google Fonts, our online donation platform, and our social media pages on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. These services may collect information about you according to their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to review. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party websites.

Email: You can unsubscribe from our newsletter and other marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link in any email or by contacting us. We may still send you transactional messages, such as donation receipts or order confirmations.
Access and correction: You may ask us to review, update, or correct the personal information we hold about you.
Deletion: You may ask us to delete your personal information, subject to records we must keep for legal, tax, or accounting purposes.
Cookies: You can manage cookies through your browser settings.

To make a request, please contact us using the information below. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling your request.

Data Security and Retention

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information, including encrypted (HTTPS) connections to the Site. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, including to meet legal, tax, accounting, and reporting requirements.
