Privacy Policy

KleverKids (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using our website at kleverkids.org, you agree to the practices described here.

Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly to us, including:

• Contact & inquiry data: name, email, phone, and organization when you submit a contact, volunteer, grant, or partnership form.
• Donation data: name, email, and donation amount. Payment card information is handled by our payment processor, Stripe, and is never stored on our servers.
• Newsletter data: your email address when you subscribe to updates.
• Technical data: basic information such as browser type, device, and IP address collected through cookies and similar technologies.

How We Use Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Process donations and send acknowledgments and receipts.
• Respond to your inquiries and review volunteer, grant, and partnership applications.
• Send launch updates and newsletters (you may unsubscribe at any time).
• Improve our website, programs, and services.
• Comply with legal obligations and protect our rights.

Cookies

We use essential cookies to operate the website, keep you logged in, and process payments. These cookies are necessary for the site to function and do not require consent. We do not use third-party advertising or tracking cookies. If we add non-essential cookies in the future, we will update this policy and provide a choice where required. You can clear or block cookies in your browser settings.

Payment Processing

Donations are processed through Stripe, which handles your payment card information securely. Stripe’s processing is governed by its own privacy policy and terms. We receive only the donor’s name, email, and transaction amount.

Information Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share information with service providers who help us operate (such as payment and email providers), when required by law, or with your consent. These providers are bound by confidentiality obligations.

Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described here, comply with legal obligations, and maintain accurate donor and program records as required for a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.

Your Privacy Rights

If you are a resident of California (CCPA/CPRA), Colorado, or another state with privacy laws, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information, and to opt out of any “sale” or “sharing” of your data. We do not sell personal information. To exercise your rights, contact us at info@kleverkids.org.

Children’s Privacy

Our website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with a revised “Last updated” date.
