Rescue Mission International Inc. (RMI) is committed to protecting your privacy online. This Privacy Policy describes what types of information is collected by Rescue Mission International Inc. through this website RMI [the “Site”], and how this information is used.

The terms “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to Rescue Mission International Inc. The terms “user” “customer” “you” and “your” refer to the site visitors, customers, and any other users of the site.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT

The information you provide (such as name, telephone numbers, home, and email address) is used to process transactions and send periodic emails.

INFORMATION ABOUT PAYMENTS

If you use RMI for donations, purchases, or financial transactions (like when you buy something, register for an event, make a donation, or any financial transaction), we collect information about the purchase or transaction. Rescue Mission International Inc. does not store credit card or financial data for transactions. All transactions on our website are managed through third-party payment processors.

When you engage in an online payment transaction, we will facilitate the transfer of your name, address, credit card details, and purchase amount as necessary. Credit card information is collected by our PCI-compliant third-party payment processors (via web portals they maintain and control) and is transmitted over a secure encrypted connection and stored in a datacenter until the transaction is completed, at which point it is removed unless you have requested to store your credit card details securely with the credit card processor for future transactions. To the extent your personal information is transmitted to the previously referenced third-party service providers, each of their own privacy policies and data security policies will also apply to such Personal Information.

HOW YOUR INFORMATION MAY BE USED

We use your personal information to send emails to you; to send updates and newsletters by mail; to answer your requests; to process your child sponsorship payments; etc. We may use this information for specific, limited purposes. We may share your information with trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, and servicing our children. These trusted third parties agree to keep this information confidential. Your personal information will never be shared with unrelated third parties.

You may always choose to “opt-out” either now or at any time in the future if you do not wish to receive our messages, which will cease all communications from us.

We may send cookies to your computer in order to uniquely identify your browser and improve the quality of our service.
