If you make an online donation via credit card or contribute via chequing account, we won’t store your billing information in our systems. Instead it’s collected and processed by trusted third-party service providers–Stripe, Recurly, and iATS Payments–who either process your one-time gift or store your data securely to be processed on a recurring basis (depending on the frequency you select).

All financial partners we work with are Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) compliant and have resources dedicated to maintaining security and confidentiality.
