Cookie Policy
Last updated July 27, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which ones this website uses, and how you can control them. It works alongside our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make sites work, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to the site owners. Some cookies are set by us, and some are set by third-party services we use, such as our donation platform and analytics tools.
How we use cookies
We use cookies for a limited set of purposes:
- Necessary cookies that make the site and the donation form work and remember your consent choices.
- Analytics cookies that help us understand, in aggregate, how the site is used so we can improve it.
We also use a privacy-focused analytics tool, Matomo, which we run without cookies and with IP addresses anonymized. Because it sets no cookies, it does not appear in the list below.

| bugsnag-anonymous-id | Givecloud / BugSnag | Anonymous identifier used for error reporting on the donation form. | Analytics | Persistent |
Cookie names, providers, and durations can change over time as third-party tools update. Some cookies, such as those from our donation platform, are only set when you open the donation form.
Managing your cookie choices
When you first visit, you can set your preferences through our cookie banner. You can change or withdraw your choices at any time using the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link in the website footer, which reopens your consent options. You can also control cookies through your browser settings, including deleting or blocking them, though some parts of the site may not work as intended if you do.
For Google Analytics specifically, you can install Google’s opt-out browser add-on to stop Google Analytics from collecting your data across all websites you visit.
Third-party cookies
Our donation form is provided by a third-party platform and runs within a secure frame on our site. That platform may set its own cookies when you open the form, under its own privacy and cookie practices. We encourage you to review the policies of any third-party services you interact with.
Changes and contact
We may update this Cookie Policy as our tools or practices change. For questions, see our Privacy Policy or contact us at (812) 573-0006 or through our contact page.
