Thrivent Charitable Impact & Investing values your business and is committed to safeguarding the information you provide us. We do not share or exchange information that you provide us with outside organizations that are not performing services for us or on our behalf or as permitted by law. Please review this policy to help you better understand the type of information Thrivent Charitable Impact & Investing obtains about you, how that information is obtained, how it is used and how visitors and those who share information with us can restrict its use or disclosure.
What information do we gather on our website or otherwise receive from individuals?
The only personal information Thrivent Charitable Impact & Investing obtains about individual visitors to our website is information supplied voluntarily by the visitor. Thrivent Charitable Impact & Investing's web server automatically recognizes & tracks your IP address when you visit our site as an anonymous visitor (without logging in). It does not recognize your email address. However, you can choose to provide identifiable information about yourself to Thrivent Charitable Impact & Investing, by logging into your Fund Dashboard, submitting a web form on our website, or by contacting us and sharing your information. When visitors supply information about themselves for a specific purpose, Thrivent Charitable Impact & Investing uses the information for that purpose only (such as to provide information a visitor has requested), or as permitted by law.
Fund Dashboard login IDs and temporary passwords are issued to authorized users when a fund is opened at Thrivent Charitable Impact & Investing. With regard to donors who access the Fund Dashboard, any information provided by Thrivent Charitable Impact & Investing regarding your specific gift or charitable fund is accessible only through use of the password the donors select. Donors can help protect their gift information by using their password carefully and by choosing a password that is difficult for someone to guess. Thrivent Charitable Impact & Investing will never ask you to provide or confirm your personal information through an email unless you have requested such an email or transaction from us. Never respond to an email (especially unsolicited email) which asks for personal or account information.
In other sections of our website (e.g., information request forms, financial questionnaires and grant request forms), we may capture additional information you may supply including, but not limited to, personal financial information, home address, telephone number, faith affiliation and other personal information in order to fulfill your request.
What information do we gather outside of our website?
Thrivent Charitable Impact & Investing may also gather information such as your name, address, email, telephone number, and other information about you and your charitable fund or interests by paper forms, email, phone, in person or fax. Similar to the information we gather through our website, when individuals supply information about themselves for a specific purpose, Thrivent Charitable Impact & Investing uses the information for that purpose only (such as to provide information a visitor has requested), or as permitted by law.
