Legal

Privacy policy

What we collect, why, who sees it, and what you can ask us to do about it.

Last updated August 7, 2026. This policy covers valormedica.org, operated by Sevadar Foundation Inc. (“we”, “us”).

Health information is handled separately

Information you give us in the course of seeking or receiving care is protected health information and is handled under medical confidentiality rules, not under this website policy. It is not shared with donors, funders, or with Valor Villages case management, without your written authorization.

Records relating to substance use disorder treatment carry additional federal protection under 42 CFR Part 2, which is stricter than general medical privacy law and limits disclosure even where other rules would permit it.

What this website collects

  • Information you submit — name, contact details and whatever you choose to tell us in a form or email.
  • Donation information — processed by our payment platform. We receive your name, contact details and gift amount. We never receive or store your card number.
  • Basic server logs — IP address, browser type, pages requested. Used for security and troubleshooting.

Forms

Our forms are delivered by JotForm. Care-related forms use a HIPAA-enabled plan. Submissions are stored with JotForm under its terms, and are not stored on this website.

How we use it

To respond to you, deliver and coordinate care, process and receipt gifts, meet legal and accounting obligations, and — only if you opt in — send updates.

What we never do

  • We do not sell, rent or trade personal information. Ever.
  • We do not share donor information with other organizations, including Valor Villages.
  • We do not use third-party telemarketers.
  • We do not use your health information for fundraising.

Mobile information

No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Information sharing with subcontractors who provide support services on our behalf — such as our SMS delivery provider — is permitted only so far as they need it to deliver messages for us. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent are excluded from all such sharing, and that information will not be shared with any third parties.

Cookies and analytics

This site uses only what is needed to function. If analytics are added, this section will name the provider and what it collects before it is switched on. We do not run advertising trackers.

Your choices

You can ask us for a copy of what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, ask us to delete it where we are not legally required to keep it, and unsubscribe from any mailing at any time. Write to info@valormedica.org.

Children

This website is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their information through it.
