How Shield of the Children handles information you share through this website.
Last updated: November 2026
Information we collect
We only collect information you choose to give us. If you sign up for updates, we collect your name and email address. If you make a donation, our payment partners collect the details needed to process your gift and send your receipt.
Email updates
Newsletter sign-ups are managed through Mailchimp. Our homepage loads a Mailchimp script to show the sign-up form, and it may set cookies to remember whether you've already seen or closed it. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link at the bottom of every email.
Donations
U.S. donations are processed by Raisely, and international donations by Global Development Group. Shield of the Children does not store your card details on this website. Each processor handles your payment information under its own privacy policy.
Video
Videos on this site are hosted on YouTube. Nothing loads from YouTube until you press play, and we use YouTube's privacy-enhanced mode.
How we use your information
We use your information to send the updates you asked for, to process and acknowledge your gifts, and to respond when you contact us. We do not sell or rent your personal information.
Survivor privacy
Protecting survivors is central to our work. We never publish identifying images or details of the children and survivors we serve. Faces are obscured and names are changed or withheld.
