In the unlikely event of a structural reorganization, merger, or dissolution of the organization, user data may be transferred as part of that process, but will remain subject to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
We do not authorize third parties to use personal data for their own marketing or commercial purposes.
Our Site uses cookies and comparable technologies to enhance your experience, monitor usage patterns, and improve site performance. These tools allow us to:
Users can manage cookie preferences through their browser settings or opt out of certain analytics by using tools such as the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on. Where required by law, we present cookie banners to request consent.

Residents of Virginia, Florida, Colorado, Connecticut, Canada, and other regions with enacted privacy laws may have comparable rights. We strive to accommodate such requests in accordance with the applicable legal standard.
To exercise your data rights, you may contact us directly at:
We may require you to verify your identity before processing your request. In some cases, we may decline a request where we are legally permitted to do so (e.g., to protect the rights of another user or to comply with a legal obligation). We aim to respond to valid requests within the legally mandated timeframes, generally within 30 days.
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including to satisfy legal, operational, or archival requirements. The retention period may vary depending on:
Once retention is no longer required, data is securely deleted or anonymized. Where applicable, you may request the deletion of your personal data in accordance with your rights under Section 10.
Our Site and services are not directed toward children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals in that age group. If we learn that a child under 13 has submitted personal data without verifiable parental consent, we will promptly delete such information.
Parents or legal guardians who believe their child has provided us with personal data are encouraged to contact us at donate@kickoffministry.com so we may take appropriate action.
As a U.S.-based organization, the data we collect is stored and processed primarily in the United States. If you are located outside the United States, please be aware that your data may be transferred to, processed, and stored in the U.S., where data protection laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction.
By using the Site and submitting personal data to us, you acknowledge and agree to the transfer of your data to the United States. Where required, we implement safeguards to ensure that such transfers are conducted in accordance with applicable law.
Kickoff Ministry takes the protection of personal data seriously and implements appropriate technical and organizational safeguards to help prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of data under our control. These measures include but are not limited to:
While we strive to protect your personal data using commercially reasonable methods, no system or transmission method is completely secure. Users are encouraged to take appropriate precautions on their end, such as using secure internet connections and updated antivirus software.
Our Site may contain links to third-party websites, platforms, or services not operated or controlled by Kickoff Ministry. These may include donation portals, media channels, social media platforms, or resource providers.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of any third-party websites. Once you leave our Site or interact with embedded third-party tools, your data is subject to the privacy policies and practices of the external provider.
We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of any third-party sites before providing them with personal information.
The Site may feature embedded content (e.g., videos, podcasts, social feeds) from third-party platforms such as YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, or others. These platforms may set cookies or collect user data when you engage with the embedded elements, even if you do not have an account or are not logged in.
Your interaction with this content is governed by the privacy policies of the respective platforms. Kickoff Ministry does not control the data collection mechanisms used by these third parties.
To manage your privacy preferences on these platforms, please refer to your account settings on the corresponding service (e.g., Facebook privacy tools, YouTube ad preferences, etc.).
Some web browsers offer “Do Not Track” (DNT) or “Global Privacy Control” (GPC) signals to inform websites of a user’s privacy preferences. At this time, our Site does not respond to such signals in a uniform way due to the lack of a consistent industry standard.
However, we honor applicable opt-out rights under laws such as the CCPA/CPRA and provide cookie preference tools where required. Users may also configure browser settings to manage cookie behaviors.
We continue to monitor regulatory developments and may update our practices as standards evolve.
Kickoff Ministry does not collect or process any financial information directly on its Site. All donation transactions are conducted through secure, third-party platforms — specifically Zeffy and Every.org.
These third parties are solely responsible for collecting and processing donor information, including payment credentials, tax documentation, and transactional records. Donors are encouraged to review the privacy policies and terms of service of these platforms before providing any information.
Kickoff Ministry receives limited, non-sensitive donor data (e.g., name, amount, purpose of donation) as necessary to maintain records or express appreciation. This data is used solely for internal, non-commercial purposes.
As noted earlier, all donations are considered final and non-refundable.
If you have concerns about how your personal data is being handled, we encourage you to contact us directly at donate@kickoffministry.com. We are committed to resolving privacy-related concerns in a timely and respectful manner.
Depending on your location, you may also have the right to file a complaint with a data protection authority or regulatory body. Contact details for certain authorities are available below for reference:
Filing a complaint with an authority does not waive your right to seek resolution directly with us first.
We reserve the right to revise this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in legal requirements, our data practices, or updates to our services. When we make material changes, we will update the “Effective Date” at the top of the policy and, where legally required, provide notice through the Site.
Your continued use of the Site following any updates constitutes your acknowledgment and agreement to the revised terms.
We encourage users to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting personal data.
Kickoff Ministry does not sell, rent, lease, or exchange personal data for monetary or other valuable consideration. We do not share user information with third parties for marketing or commercial profiling purposes.
This includes compliance with relevant legal definitions of “sale” under laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), which we honor by design even when not required to register as a data broker or commercial entity.
In jurisdictions requiring opt-out rights for data sales, this section serves as notice that such rights are not necessary in our case because we do not engage in such activities.
We may use anonymized or aggregated information — which does not identify any individual — for statistical analysis, performance tracking, reporting, and improvement of our services. This data may include, for example, the number of visitors to a particular page or general location trends based on anonymized IP data.
Such data is not subject to the same restrictions as personal data under most global privacy laws because it cannot be used to identify individuals. We do not attempt to re-identify aggregated or anonymized data.
This Privacy Policy, and any disputes or claims arising from or relating to it, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, United States of America, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
By using this Site, you submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Clark County, Nevada for the resolution of any disputes that may arise under or in connection with this Policy or our data practices, unless applicable law provides otherwise.
If you have questions about this Privacy Policy, your personal data, or wish to exercise any of your rights described above, please contact us using any of the following methods:
We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that your personal data is handled transparently, respectfully, and in accordance with applicable laws.
