When it comes to charitable giving, the safety of your personal and financial information is paramount. At Feeling Blessed, we understand that trust is the foundation of generosity. That's why we've dedicated ourselves to creating a secure environment for our donors. In this blog post, we'll walk you through the measures we take to protect your donations and ensure that your experience with our app is not just fulfilling but also secure.

Ensuring Payment Security:

Your financial security is our top concern. To provide you with peace of mind, we partner with Stripe, one of the most trusted names in online payments. Stripe is renowned for its robust security measures and is Level 1 DSS PCI compliant – the highest level of certification available in the payments industry.

When you make a donation through Feeling Blessed, your payment information is handled exclusively by Stripe's secure servers. This means that at no point does your sensitive financial data reside on or pass through our servers.

Secure Data Transmission:

We take the privacy and integrity of your data seriously. All communication between your smartphone and our servers is encrypted and protected using SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) technology. This ensures that any information you send to us is transmitted securely.

Our infrastructure is designed to communicate strictly over HTTPS protocols, which means every bit of data shared is encrypted. Simply put, it's like having a secure, private conversation where no one else can listen in.

Privacy and Data Handling:

The only data we collect is what you choose to share with us when making a donation. This information is shared with the nonprofit you're supporting, ensuring transparency and allowing them to understand their donor base better. We are committed to not retrieving any additional data without your explicit consent.

Addressing Unintentional Donations:

We recognize that mistakes can happen, such as an unintentional donation. If this occurs, we act promptly to rectify the situation. Donations made in error are returned immediately, ensuring that you, the donor, are safeguarded against unintended transactions.

Donation Process and Nonprofit Receiving:

Nonprofits are thoroughly vetted before they can register on Feeling Blessed. They connect their bank accounts securely to our system on the backend. Just like you might use Venmo or Zelle to transfer money, we utilize similar, trusted technology for processing bank transfers. This setup allows for the seamless and direct deposit of your donations into the nonprofit's bank account, minimizing delays and confusion.

Final Thoughts:

At Feeling Blessed, we're more than just a platform for giving; we're a community built on the principles of trust and security. Whether it’s safeguarding your payments or ensuring the privacy of your data, we're committed to setting the standard for secure charitable transactions.
