Your privacy matters to us. This policy explains how MADIOC INC collects, uses, and protects your personal information — including your SMS opt-in data.
MADIOC INC ("we," "us," "our," or "the Organization") is committed to protecting the privacy of individuals who interact with our organization, use our services, visit our website, or enroll in our SMS communications program. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard personal information in connection with our charitable activities.
MADIOC INC is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization operating as an independent nonprofit corporation, exempt from federal income tax under the Internal Revenue Code. We take seriously our responsibility to protect the information entrusted to us by the communities we serve.
By using any MADIOC INC services, website, or communications, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and agree to its terms. If you do not agree, please do not use our services.

If you opt into our SMS program, we specifically collect and maintain:
MADIOC INC uses collected personal information solely for legitimate charitable and organizational purposes, including:
We do not use your personal information for advertising, behavioral tracking, or commercial marketing purposes.
No Mobile Information Sharing for Marketing: No mobile phone number, SMS opt-in data, consent records, or any information obtained through our SMS program will be shared with, sold to, or transferred to any third party or affiliate for marketing, advertising, or promotional purposes. This protection applies regardless of any other provision in this Policy.
Information collected through our SMS opt-in process is used exclusively to: (a) deliver the SMS communications you consented to receive; (b) maintain your subscription preferences; (c) process opt-out requests; and (d) comply with applicable telecom regulations and carrier requirements.
When you reply STOP to opt out of our SMS program, your opt-out is processed immediately and your number is added to our internal suppression list. STOP records are retained permanently to ensure your opt-out preference is honored in perpetuity, even if you later re-subscribe and unsubscribe again.
Our SMS communications are sent under the program name MADIOC INC. All outbound messages identify the organization. For questions about any message received, reply HELP or contact us at info@madiocinc.org.
We may share personal information with trusted third-party service providers who assist in operating our website, delivering SMS communications, processing donations, or supporting our programs. These providers are bound by written confidentiality agreements and data protection obligations, and may only use information strictly as directed by MADIOC INC for legitimate organizational purposes.
We may disclose your information when required by law, subpoena, court order, or government regulation — or when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, safety, or property of MADIOC INC, our community members, staff, or the general public.
In the unlikely event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or dissolution of MADIOC INC, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to the same privacy protections described in this Policy. We will notify users via website notice or direct communication if such a transfer occurs.

When personal information is no longer needed and retention is not legally required, we securely delete or anonymize it.
