Privacy Policy

Effective Date: September 15, 2026

The Indian Muslim American Movement (“IMAM,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to handling personal information responsibly. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit weareimam.org, make a donation, sign up for updates, volunteer, request an event or speaker, or otherwise communicate with us.

Information We Collect

We may collect information that you provide directly to us, including your name, email address, phone number, city and state, school or organization, volunteer interests, event or speaker request information, messages, and other information you choose to provide.

When you make a donation, we may receive information associated with your donation, such as your name, contact information, donation amount, donation frequency, transaction status, and related transaction information.

Payment card and bank account information is processed by our payment processor and is not stored directly by IMAM's website.

We may also collect limited technical information associated with use of our website, such as browser or device information and website activity, through the services used to operate and maintain the site.

How We Use Information

We may use information to:

  • process and administer donations;
  • communicate with donors and supporters;
  • respond to questions, volunteer interest, and event or speaker requests;
  • provide organizational news, educational resources, event information, and opportunities to participate in IMAM's work;
  • maintain and improve our website and programs;
  • maintain organizational and financial records;
  • protect the security and integrity of our systems; and
  • comply with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Service Providers

IMAM may use trusted service providers to operate its website, process donations, maintain records, send communications, and provide other services on our behalf. These providers may process personal information as necessary to perform those services.

For example, payment information is processed through third-party payment-processing services rather than being stored directly by IMAM's website.

Sharing of Information

IMAM does not sell personal information.

We may share information with service providers working on our behalf, when necessary to process a transaction or fulfill a request, when required by law, or when reasonably necessary to protect IMAM, our community, or others.

Communications

If you sign up for updates or express interest in participating in IMAM's work, we may contact you about programs, events, educational resources, organizing opportunities, fundraising, and other IMAM activities.

You may ask to stop receiving non-transactional email communications at any time by following any unsubscribe instructions provided or by contacting info@weareimam.org.

Data Security and Retention

We take reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect the information entrusted to us. However, no internet-based service can guarantee absolute security.

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including organizational, donor, financial, legal, and recordkeeping needs.

Children

Our website is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without appropriate authorization. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information to us, please contact us.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as our website, programs, or practices evolve. The current version will be posted on this page with its effective date.
