You may unsubscribe from marketing email communications at any time by using the Unsubscribe link contained in our marketing emails or by contacting us.

We may continue to send non-marketing communications that are reasonably necessary to complete a transaction, administer a registration or donation, respond to your request, or otherwise communicate with you where permitted by law.

4. SMS and Telephone Communications

If you voluntarily provide your telephone or mobile phone number and provide the applicable consent to receive communications by telephone or text message, Fruitful Futures Project may use your number to communicate with you regarding programs, events, registrations, fruitfulness opportunities, fundraising initiatives, donations, purchases, appointment or event reminders, shopping cart reminders, organizational updates, and other communications consistent with the consent you provided.

Consent to receive marketing text messages is not a condition of making a donation, purchasing a product, participating in a program, registering for an event, or receiving services from Fruitful Futures Project.

Message frequency may vary. Message and data rates may apply.

You may opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP to a text message from us. You may also communicate your request to stop receiving text messages through another reasonable method available to you.

Where supported by our messaging service, you may reply HELP for assistance.

After you opt out, we may send a one-time confirmation message acknowledging your request. We will process opt-out requests in accordance with applicable law.

Providing consent to receive text messages from Fruitful Futures Project applies only to the communications described when you provide that consent and does not constitute consent to receive text messages from unrelated third parties.

5. Mobile Information and Text Messaging Consent

Fruitful Futures Project does not sell or rent mobile telephone numbers or SMS opt-in information.

Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be sold, rented, or shared with third parties for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

We may disclose mobile information to service providers that perform services on our behalf, such as telecommunications providers, SMS platform providers, customer relationship management providers, website providers, and other vendors necessary to deliver and administer our messaging program.

Those service providers may access such information only as reasonably necessary to provide services to Fruitful Futures Project and are not authorized by us to use your SMS opt-in information for their own independent marketing purposes.

Any other disclosure or sharing described in this Privacy Policy excludes text messaging originator opt-in data and consent. Such information will not be shared with non-affiliated third parties for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

6. Shopping Cart and Abandoned Cart Information

Fruitful Futures Project's website may use cookies, website plugins, shopping cart technologies, pixels, session information, or similar technologies to help keep track of products, registrations, donations, services, or other items that you place into an online shopping cart or begin to purchase.

These technologies may allow us or our website service providers to determine when a shopping cart or transaction has been abandoned before completion.

Where you have provided the appropriate consent to receive text messages, information concerning an abandoned cart may be used to determine when to send a cart reminder message by text message.

For example, if you add an item to your shopping cart, provide your mobile phone number and the required SMS consent, but do not complete the transaction, our website or messaging systems may use information from cookies, plugins, or similar technologies to identify the abandoned cart and send an appropriate reminder.

You may opt out of these text messages at any time by replying STOP.

10. Location Information

Fruitful Futures Project does not intentionally collect or use precise GPS location information through our website unless we specifically disclose that collection and obtain any consent required by applicable law.

11. Third-Party Websites and Services

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, social media platforms, donation platforms, payment processors, event registration services, or other online services.

Fruitful Futures Project does not control the privacy practices of these third parties. When you leave our website or interact directly with a third-party service, that third party's collection and use of information may be governed by its own privacy policy and terms.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of the websites and services you use.

12. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, administer our programs and communications, maintain appropriate organizational, donor, customer, and transaction records, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and protect our organization.

Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information, the purpose for which it was collected, legal requirements, and our legitimate organizational needs.

We may retain records of communication preferences and opt-out requests as reasonably necessary to ensure that those preferences are honored.

13. Data Security

Fruitful Futures Project uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, loss, destruction, or misuse.

However, no website, electronic transmission, telecommunications system, or information storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of information transmitted to or stored by us.
