How Information is Used
New Horizons Habitat for Humanity uses the information you provide to process transactions, communicate with you, and keep you informed about our programs, events, and organizational updates. Credit card information is used solely for processing donations and payments and is not retained for any other purpose. When you make a donation through our website, your payment information is processed by a third-party payment provider. While the provider has represented that it uses industry-standard security measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, New Horizons Habitat for Humanity cannot guarantee the security of information transmitted to or processed by third parties. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these providers and encourage you to review their privacy policies before submitting your payment information.

We may share aggregated, non-identifiable information—such as website traffic statistics, donation trends, or general demographic data—with business partners, service providers, and other reputable vendors. This aggregated information does not contain personally identifiable information and cannot be used to identify individual users of the Site. We may disclose or access personal information when we have a good-faith belief that such action is required by law, legal process, or governmental request, or when necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of New Horizons Habitat for Humanity, our supporters, or others.
