Donor Privacy Policy
At Cat Tales Wildlife Center, we value the trust you place in us and are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

How We Use Your Information
We use your information to:
- Process donations and send receipts.
- Communicate about programs, events, and fundraising opportunities.
- Recognize your generosity (unless you ask to remain anonymous).
We do not sell, rent, or trade donor information with outside organizations.

Security of Your Information
We use industry-standard security measures to protect your information, including:

- Regular review of systems and safeguards.
While we make every effort to protect your data, no system is 100% secure, and you share information at your own risk.
