Information collected

Inquiry forms may collect a name, organization, email address, phone number, topic, deadline, donation interest, and the message a visitor chooses to provide. The Hope Board form collects only a message category, a general signature choice such as “Anonymous” or “A parent,” and the message itself; it does not request a name, email address, phone number, school, location, or public profile. Technical hosting and security systems may also process ordinary request information needed to deliver and protect the site.

How information is used

Submitted information is used to respond to the inquiry, route it to the appropriate organizational contact, protect the site from abuse, and maintain necessary operational records. It is not sold.

Hope Board moderation and publication

Hope Board submissions remain private until approved by an authorized moderator. A safe message may be published with its selected general signature. Messages may be declined, rejected, retained for a limited moderation purpose, or removed. Leah Matters does not promise publication or a response and does not use the board to provide crisis counseling.

Do not submit sensitive information

  • Do not submit crisis disclosures through a website form.
  • Do not submit medical records or graphic details.
  • Do not submit credit-card, bank-account, or Social Security information.
  • Do not identify a child or share a child’s private information without authorization.

Access and retention

Access should be limited to people responsible for responding to the inquiry. Leah Matters will retain information only as long as reasonably needed for the inquiry, legal obligations, safety, or organizational records. Formal retention periods will be published as operations mature.

Questions, corrections, and deletion requests

Use the contact page and identify the request as a privacy question. Leah Matters will verify the request as appropriate and explain what can be corrected or deleted.
