Privacy Policy

About This Policy

Dezire Foundation is a nonprofit storytelling organization. This website (dezirefoundation.org) is used to share the organization's mission, introduce the stories Dezire is building, and invite early supporters to connect. Dezire is committed to handling all visitor information with care and transparency.

Information Collected

Dezire collects information only when you choose to provide it — primarily through the contact form on this site. When you use the contact form, the following information may be collected:

• Your name
• Your email address
• The content of your message
• The reason for your inquiry (selected from a dropdown)

Contact form submissions are processed through Formspree, a third-party form service. By submitting the form, your information is transmitted to Formspree and forwarded to the Dezire team. Please review Formspree's privacy policy for details on how they handle form data.

How Information Is Used

Information submitted through the contact form is used only to respond to your inquiry. Dezire does not sell, share, or distribute personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.

If you join the Founding Voice List or express interest in supporting Dezire, your contact information will be used to follow up directly about the mission, updates, and next steps — consistent with the reason you reached out.

Analytics and Tracking

Dezire uses Vercel Web Analytics to understand aggregate website traffic — such as which pages are visited and general usage trends — so the site experience can be improved. Vercel describes its Web Analytics as privacy-focused, relying on aggregated data and not using third-party cookies. Dezire uses this information only in aggregate and does not use it to identify individual visitors. This policy will be updated if Dezire's analytics approach changes, and Dezire's analytics and privacy practices remain subject to legal and privacy review.

Cookies

This website does not use third-party advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. Vercel Web Analytics is designed to measure aggregate traffic without using third-party cookies. Basic browser behaviors (such as storing your scroll position) are handled by the browser itself, not by Dezire.

Donation and Payment Information

Dezire is building its donation infrastructure. No payment or financial information is collected through this website at this time. Donation processing and related privacy terms will be confirmed after legal and administrative review is complete and will be reflected in an updated version of this policy.

External Links

This site may include links to external platforms such as Instagram, YouTube, and email services. Dezire is not responsible for the privacy practices of external sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any external site you visit.
