Last updated: July 2026

1. Introduction

Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Lexington, Inc. (“Catholic Charities,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect through this website, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using this website, you consent to the practices described here.

2. Information We Collect

We only collect information you choose to provide, along with limited technical data needed to operate the site securely:

  • Contact and volunteer forms: When you submit a form, we collect the details you enter — such as your name, email address, phone number, and message — so we can respond to your request.
  • Mailing list: If you sign up for our mailing list, we collect your email address to send you updates about our work.
  • Server logs: Like most websites, our host may automatically record standard technical information (such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited) for security and performance purposes.

3. How We Use Your Information

  • To respond to inquiries and requests for assistance;
  • To follow up with volunteers and supporters;
  • To send updates and news to those who join our mailing list;
  • To maintain the security, integrity, and performance of our website.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.

4. Cookies

This website uses only essential cookies needed for the site to function and to remember your cookie preferences. We do not use third-party advertising or analytics tracking cookies. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time.

5. Embedded and Third-Party Content

Some pages link to or embed content from other services. When you follow these links or interact with embedded content, the privacy policy of that third party applies. These include:

  • Donations are processed by Network for Good and, where noted, Kroger Community Rewards and Amazon. Payment information is handled directly by those providers, not by us.
  • Volunteer pre-screening is handled through CMG Connect.
  • Social media links to Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube are governed by those platforms’ own privacy policies.

6. Who Has Access to Your Data

Access to information you submit is limited to Catholic Charities staff and authorized personnel who need it to respond to your request or administer our programs.

7. How Long We Retain Your Data

We keep the information you submit only as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was provided, to comply with our legal and program obligations, or until you ask us to remove it.

8. Your Rights

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of the personal information you have provided to us. To make a request, or to unsubscribe from our mailing list, please contact us using the details below.

9. Links to Other Websites

Our website contains links to external organizations and resources. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those third-party websites and encourage you to review their policies.

10. Release of Data for Legal Purposes

We may disclose information when required to do so by law, or when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, protect our rights, or ensure the safety of others.
