Privacy policy
ClubCause collects only the information needed to review, verify, and administer club funding requests.
This policy applies to information submitted through the ClubCause website through the website feedback form, or sent to our official contact email.
01 · WHAT WE COLLECT
We collect the club and school name, faculty advisor’s full first and last name and official school email, number of students served, funding purpose, itemized budget, and the submitting student’s full first and last name and contact email.
02 · WHY WE COLLECT IT
We use this information to review eligibility, identify and contact the club president or student in charge and faculty advisor, confirm school authorization, verify the budget, arrange an approved payment destination, prevent misuse, and maintain required project records.
03 · WHO MAY ACCESS IT
Private application information may be accessed only by authorized ClubCause reviewers and, when necessary, the faculty advisor, authorized school staff, and ClubCause’s fiscal sponsor or service providers supporting verification and compliance. Student and advisor names and email addresses are private application information and are not included in public project listings. Access may also be provided when required by law.
04 · RETENTION & DELETION
Unapproved application contact information is deleted within 12 months after the final decision unless it must be retained for safety, fraud prevention, or legal compliance. Approved project records are kept while the project is active and for the recordkeeping period required by the school or fiscal sponsor. You may request correction or deletion by emailing clubcauseverify@gmail.com, subject to required recordkeeping.
The optional website rating, selected page, feedback category, and written message are stored for authorized admins to review and resolve site issues. The form does not request your name or email. Avoid putting personal information in the message. We review feedback periodically and delete it when no longer needed for improving the site; you may request deletion by contacting us.
If approved for publication, a project listing may show the club name, school, category, funding purpose, itemized budget, funding goal, amount raised, and project status. Do not include student names, email addresses, or other private information in the funding purpose or budget descriptions intended for a public listing.
We need the full first and last names of the faculty advisor and submitting student to identify the people responsible for the request and verify it with the school. Do not submit a list of club members or other students’ personal details.
Do not submit passwords, banking details, government identification numbers, medical records, or other sensitive student records. ClubCause does not sell personal information.
