Draft for review

Privacy Policy

How the Paw Protection Alliance website plans to handle visitor information. This policy is a draft until the contact form and hosting are finalized.

Working draft - not yet final

Last updated: November 12, 2026. Paw Protection Alliance (PPA) is a developing independent initiative, not an incorporated or tax-exempt nonprofit.

Information collected directly

When the contact form is enabled, it asks for your name, email address, inquiry category, message, and optional phone number. Please do not send medical, financial, account, or other sensitive personal information. The contact form has been configured with Tally, but submission delivery and privacy controls must be verified before public launch.

Why we use it

PPA intends to use messages to respond to inquiries, review corrections and resource suggestions, and manage correspondence. PPA does not plan to sell contact information, send advertising, or enroll visitors in a newsletter without separate consent.

Form provider and email delivery

The contact form is hosted by Tally, which processes submitted information for the form owner. Form notifications may also be delivered by email. See Tally's data-processing information for more about that provider. Contact-form handling and account administration are managed by Paw Protection Alliance and may evolve as the project develops.

Hosting and technical data

The site is planned for GitHub Pages. GitHub and its service providers may process technical information needed to provide and secure hosting, including network and access information, under their own policies. PPA has not added advertising trackers or analytics to this prototype; that statement must be revisited if the site changes.

How long messages are kept

PPA intends to retain correspondence only while it is reasonably needed for a response, correction, or recordkeeping. Before launch, PPA will adopt a specific retention and deletion process for form submissions and email notifications.

External websites

PPA links to independent organizations, government sources, and charitable giving pages. Those sites control their own privacy practices, and inclusion does not imply partnership or endorsement.

Photos and fonts

Website fonts and image files are served as site assets. Prototype illustrations are AI-generated and do not represent documented animals, sanctuaries, people, or events.

Questions, access and deletion

Visitors may use the Contact page to ask about information submitted to PPA and request correction or deletion. During testing, do not submit sensitive personal information.

Before launch: verify a successful test submission and notification, the form’s privacy acknowledgment and publicly accessible policy link, a contact address, actual data retention practice, tracking tools, and effective date. This is an operational draft and not a legal compliance certification.
