This policy explains what information this educational site may collect, why it is used, and the choices available to you.

When you become an Ally, we use the information you provide to maintain your free membership, send The Ally Update, and tailor updates to the locations and topics you selected. Every membership email will provide a way to unsubscribe. You may also contact us to update or remove your membership information.

Analytics and cookies

We may use Google Analytics to understand aggregate traffic and improve the site. Analytics can collect pages viewed, approximate location, device and browser type, referring pages, and interaction timing. Google Analytics is configured to request IP anonymization. You can restrict cookies in your browser or use Google’s analytics opt-out tools.

Donations and some payments are completed through secure checkout. Payment information is handled securely, and this site does not receive or store your full card number.

Use and sharing

We use information to respond to inquiries, fulfill requests, provide membership communications, maintain security, understand performance, improve resources, and meet applicable obligations. We do not sell personal information. Service providers may handle data for hosting, analytics, communications, fulfillment, or payments.

We retain information only as reasonably needed and take reasonable protective steps, although no internet system is completely secure. You may ask about, correct, or request deletion of information you submitted through our contact page. Records may be retained where legally or operationally required.
