Privacy Policy

The Atlanta Israel Coalition (“AIC,” “we,” “us”) respects your privacy. We collect only what we need to run our programs and stay in touch with the community, and we do not sell your personal information.

What we collect

We collect information you choose to give us, and a small amount of technical information the site needs to work:

• Newsletter sign-ups. When you subscribe, we collect the name and email address you enter.
• Contact form. When you write to us, we collect your name, email address, and the message and topic you send.
• Donations. When you give, our payment provider collects the details needed to process your gift. AIC receives a record of the donation (such as amount and donor name) but does not store your full card number on this site.
• Technical information. Like most websites, our host may log standard technical data such as browser type and general location, used to keep the site secure and reliable.

How we use it

We use the information you share to:

• send the AIC newsletter and program updates you asked for;
• respond to your message or inquiry;
• process and acknowledge your donation, and meet our recordkeeping and tax obligations as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit;
• invite you to events, missions, and volunteer opportunities; and
• keep the site secure and improve how it works.

We do not sell or rent your personal information. The AIC newsletter list is never merged with any other organization’s list.

Service providers

AIC uses trusted third-party services to run parts of the site and its programs, and shares information with them only as needed to provide those services:

• Substack, to manage and send the AIC Dispatch newsletter;
• Resend, to send transactional email (contact replies, donation receipts);
• Stripe, to process donations securely (AIC never stores your card details);
• an event-registration service, when you register for a program;
• YouTube (Google), to show embedded event recordings and videos — see “Cookies and analytics” below; and
• Cloudflare, to host the site, and — where enabled — a privacy-respecting analytics provider.

Each provider handles your information under its own privacy terms.

Cookies and analytics

The site uses only the cookies it needs to function. If AIC enables website analytics, it will use a privacy-respecting configuration and disclose it here, along with any choice to opt out. The site does not run third-party advertising trackers.

Some pages show embedded videos from YouTube. These load as a still preview by default and only start — and only load YouTube’s player, which may set its own cookies — after you click play. If you do not play a video, no YouTube cookies are set. YouTube’s use of any data it then collects is governed by Google’s Privacy Policy.

Your choices

• Unsubscribe. Every newsletter email includes an unsubscribe link; you can opt out anytime.
• Access or deletion. You can ask us what personal information we hold about you, or ask us to correct or delete it, by emailing the address below. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe.
• Do Not Track. The site does not respond differently to browser “Do Not Track” signals; it simply does not run advertising trackers.

Data retention

We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the purposes above or to meet legal and recordkeeping obligations, then delete or anonymize it.

Children

The site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes

We may update this policy as our programs or the law change. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above, and significant changes will be noted on this page.

Questions about this policy, or about the information we hold, can go to [email protected], or by mail to Atlanta Israel Coalition, Inc., P.O. Box 3902, Alpharetta, GA 30023.
