ELEVATE YOUR BEING FOUNDATION LLC ("ELEVATE," "we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting the privacy and security of your personal information. As a charitable foundation specializing in grantmaking trusts, community and corporate foundations, educational and scholarship trusts, religious trusts, health research fundraising, and charitable crowdfunding, we handle sensitive information — donor identities, contribution records, grant applications, beneficiary data, scholarship applications, and campaign details — and we take our responsibility to protect that information seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website at www.elevat.shop, participate in our charitable programs, or otherwise interact with us.
We are headquartered at 5830 E 2nd St PMB 7000, Casper, WY 82609, United States. Our foundation is built on trust: donors entrust us with their contributions and personal information, grant applicants share organizational and financial details with us, and beneficiaries and scholarship recipients share personal circumstances so that we can administer our programs fairly. We honor that trust by maintaining rigorous data protection practices and being transparent about how we handle information.
This policy applies to all visitors, donors, grant applicants, grantees, scholarship applicants, campaign organizers, beneficiaries, and other individuals who interact with us through our website or charitable programs. By accessing our website or participating in our programs, you consent to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. We encourage you to read this policy carefully to understand our approach to your information.
If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, you should not access our website or participate in our programs. This policy may be updated from time to time, and any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We will provide notice of material changes as described in Section 13 of this policy.
We collect several categories of information depending on how you interact with us. The types of information we collect are described below:
When you contact us through our website, make a donation, submit a grant or scholarship application, organize a fundraising campaign, or participate in our charitable programs, we may collect personal information that you voluntarily provide, including your full name, email address, phone number, organization name, mailing address, and any message content you choose to share with us. When you make a donation, we also collect contribution details such as donation amount, designation preferences, and payment information processed through secure payment providers. When you apply for a grant or scholarship, we collect application materials including organizational details, financial information, program descriptions, references, and personal circumstances relevant to eligibility.
When you visit our website, we automatically collect certain technical information about your device and browsing activity. This includes your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, time spent on pages, and approximate geographic location based on your IP address. This information is collected through cookies, server logs, and similar technologies.
When you participate in our grantmaking, trust administration, scholarship, fundraising, or crowdfunding programs, we have access to program-related information including grant proposals, organizational financials, beneficiary records, scholarship applications, campaign content, donation histories, and other information necessary to administer our programs. The scope of information collected in this context is defined in the applicable program or grant agreement between your organization and ELEVATE YOUR BEING FOUNDATION LLC, and we maintain strict controls over what we access and why.
We may receive information about you from third-party sources, such as crowdfunding platforms, payment processors, partner charities, community organizations, referral partners, or public databases used for grantee due diligence and verification. This information is used to supplement the information we collect directly and to improve our understanding of your needs. We will only use information obtained from third parties in accordance with applicable privacy laws.
We use the information we collect for a variety of legitimate charitable and operational purposes. The specific uses depend on the type of information and the context of our interaction with you. Below are the primary ways we use your information:
We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We may share your information with service providers, partner charities, and program participants under the conditions described in Section 5 of this policy.
For individuals located in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or other jurisdictions subject to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we process personal information based on the following legal grounds:
You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. To withdraw consent or exercise any of your rights under GDPR, please contact us using the information provided in Section 14 of this policy.
We may share your information with third parties in specific circumstances, as described below. We do not sell your personal information to any third party.
We engage trusted third-party service providers to perform functions on our behalf, such as web hosting, email delivery, crowdfunding platforms, payment processing, analytics, donor management systems, and customer support. These providers have access to your information only as necessary to perform their functions and are contractually obligated to protect it in accordance with applicable privacy laws.
In connection with grant programs, federated giving campaigns, and joint fundraising efforts, we may share information with partner charities, grantee organizations, voluntary health organizations, and united fund councils. Such sharing is limited to what is necessary for the program and is governed by appropriate data protection agreements. We only share participant information with third parties when authorized or required to administer the agreed programs.
When you donate to a campaign or crowdfunding initiative, certain information such as your name and donation amount may be displayed publicly on the campaign page unless you choose to donate anonymously. We honor anonymity requests wherever the platform and applicable law permit, while retaining records internally as required for tax and audit purposes.
We may disclose your information when required by law, court order, or government regulation, or when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others, to detect and prevent fraud or misuse of charitable funds, or to respond to a legal request. This includes disclosures to regulatory bodies, charity regulators, or law enforcement when legally required.
In the event of a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or transfer of all or a portion of our foundation's programs or assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you of any such change via our website or directly, where applicable.
We may share your information with third parties when you provide explicit consent to do so. You may withdraw your consent at any time, though withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of prior sharing.
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying legal, accounting, tax, or reporting requirements applicable to charitable organizations. The specific retention periods depend on the type of information and the context of our interaction:
When information is no longer needed, we will securely delete or anonymize it in accordance with our data retention policies and applicable legal requirements.
We implement comprehensive technical, administrative, and physical security measures designed to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. As a charitable foundation handling donor identities, contribution records, grant applications, and beneficiary data, we hold ourselves to the highest standards of data protection.
Our security measures include encryption of data in transit using TLS/SSL protocols, encryption of sensitive data at rest, network security controls including firewalls and intrusion detection systems, access controls based on the principle of least privilege, regular security assessments, personnel security training and awareness programs, and incident response procedures for security events. Payment card information is processed by PCI-DSS compliant payment processors and is not stored on our servers.
For programs involving sensitive participant information — such as beneficiary health circumstances in disease research fundraising or personal financial details in scholarship applications — we employ additional safeguards including scoped access credentials, program-specific data isolation, secure document handling procedures, and confidentiality agreements with all personnel involved. Access to participant data is restricted to authorized personnel who need it to administer the agreed programs.
While we strive to protect your information, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we are committed to maintaining the highest reasonable standards of data protection and continuously improving our security posture.
In the event of a data breach affecting your personal information, we will notify affected individuals and relevant authorities in accordance with applicable legal requirements, typically within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach.
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information. The specific rights available to you depend on applicable privacy laws, including but not limited to the GDPR, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and other state and federal regulations.
If you are located in the EEA or UK, you have the following rights:
If you are a resident of California or other U.S. states with privacy laws, you may have the right to know what personal information is collected about you, request deletion of your personal information, opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, and not be discriminated against for exercising your privacy rights.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at support@elevat.shop or +1 223 358 0243. We will respond to your request within 30 days, or as required by applicable law. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request. Please note that certain donation, grant, and trust records may be subject to legal retention requirements that limit the right to erasure.

We may also integrate third-party services into our website and charitable program operations, such as crowdfunding platforms, payment processors, analytics tools, and contact form processors. These third-party services may collect information governed by their own privacy policies.

Where scholarship or beneficiary programs involve minors, personal information is collected from a parent, guardian, or sponsoring institution with appropriate consent, and is used solely for program administration and eligibility determination. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information directly from a child under the applicable age without appropriate consent, we will take steps to delete that information as soon as possible.
Parents or guardians who believe their child has provided information to us should contact us promptly using the information provided in Section 14 of this policy. We are committed to complying with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and other applicable laws regarding children's privacy.
