Draft for Review. Before publication, the foundation’s details must be completed, the list of connected services checked, and the text reviewed with a lawyer familiar with Israeli law.
1. Who Processes Your Data
The website operator and controller of personal data is: [full legal name of the foundation], registration number [number], address: [address]. For privacy enquiries: [responsible person’s email].
2. What Data We May Receive
- name, phone number, email address and the content of an enquiry;
- information in applications from volunteers, partners and people requesting help;
- donation details: amount, purpose, date, status and transaction ID;
- technical data: IP address, browser type, language, website pages and cookies;

Full bank card details are entered with the payment provider Grow/Meshulam and are not stored on the foundation’s website.
3. How We Use Data
- to respond to enquiries and process applications;

- to contact users about the matter they have raised;
- to improve the website’s operation, security and accessibility;

4. Services and Data Recipients
The website may use hosting providers, WordPress and its plugins, Fluent Forms, HubSpot, email services, Grow/Meshulam and other technical providers. They receive only the data needed for their service and process it under their own terms and legal requirements.
If a donation falls under Section 46 of Israel’s Income Tax Ordinance, information about the donation and donor may be sent to the Israel Tax Authority to the extent required by law. [Confirm whether this applies.]
5. Cookies and Analytics
The website may use essential cookies for login, security, language selection, forms and the payment process. Optional analytics or advertising cookies should only be enabled after an appropriate notice and consent mechanism have been set up, where required.
[Before publication, add an accurate list of analytics tools, pixels and cookie lifetimes following a technical review of the website.]
6. How Long We Keep Data
Data is kept only for as long as necessary for processing, accounting and legal records, protecting the foundation’s rights and meeting mandatory retention periods. After that, it is deleted, anonymised or archived with restricted access.
7. Users’ Rights
Users may ask for information about their data, request corrections or exercise other rights under applicable Israeli law. Requests should be sent to [email]; to protect data, the foundation may verify the identity of the person making the request.
8. Data About Children and People We Support
The foundation aims not to publish or collect unnecessary information about children and other vulnerable people. Stories, images, and medical or family information should only be used with the necessary consent or another lawful basis, limiting the amount of information disclosed.
9. Security and Transfers Abroad
Reasonable organisational and technical safeguards are used. Some service providers may process data outside Israel. In such cases, the foundation must ensure there is a valid basis and appropriate safeguards.
