Website forms and information storage
Some forms on our website are powered by Elementor, a WordPress website platform.
When you submit an Elementor form, your information is stored in our WordPress website database, delivered by email to KBStrong representatives, and recorded in Google Sheets for administrative purposes.
Access to submitted information is intended to be limited to authorized individuals who need it to respond to inquiries, review applications, or administer KBStrong programs.
Warrior Grant applications and supporting medical documentation may be reviewed by KBStrong board members involved in administering the program.
Donations, event registrations, and Zeffy
We use Zeffy, a third-party fundraising platform, to manage donations, event registrations, and certain signup forms.
When you complete an embedded Zeffy form, the information you provide is processed through Zeffy’s platform. This may include contact details, donation amounts, event registration information, and communication preferences.
Payment information is processed by Zeffy and its payment processing partners. KBStrong does not directly collect or store complete payment card information through our website.
For more information about how Zeffy handles personal information, please review Zeffy’s Privacy Policy.
Google Analytics and cookies
Our website uses Google Analytics to help us understand how visitors find and interact with our website.
Google Analytics may collect information about website traffic, pages visited, time spent on pages, browser and device information, approximate location, and other website interactions.
Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to collect and analyze this information.
Our website and embedded third-party services may also use cookies for website functionality, security, and other purposes.
You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of some website features.

Email communications
KBStrong sends newsletters, fundraising updates, event announcements, volunteer opportunities, and other promotional communications to individuals who specifically sign up to receive them.
Submitting a contact form, fundraiser inquiry, or Warrior Grant application does not automatically subscribe you to promotional emails.
You may unsubscribe from promotional emails at any time using the unsubscribe link included in applicable communications.
We may still contact you regarding donations, event registrations, applications, or inquiries you have submitted.
How we share and protect information
We may share personal information with service providers that help us operate our website, process donations, manage communications, and administer our programs.
These providers may include Zeffy, Google, website hosting services, and email service providers.
We take reasonable precautions to protect personal information and limit access to individuals with legitimate organizational responsibilities.
However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children’s privacy
Some KBStrong programs and events may involve children and require the collection of personal information, such as names, contact information, or program-related details.
Parents or legal guardians should submit information on behalf of minors and provide appropriate permission for their participation.
Our website is not intended to solicit personal information directly from children under 13 without appropriate parental or guardian involvement.
If you believe a child has submitted personal information without appropriate permission, please contact us so we can review the situation.
Data retention
We retain personal information as needed for program administration, organizational recordkeeping, communication, and applicable legal obligations.
How long information is retained may vary depending on its purpose and applicable requirements.
You may contact us to request information about records we maintain or to request deletion of personal information, subject to applicable legal and administrative requirements.
Your privacy choices
You may contact KBStrong to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we maintain about you.
