Site Membership & Personal Information
Members of the Website are assured that HFTN and its service providers will never trade or sell their personal information and no contact information will ever be made available publicly on the Website by HFTN.

When you donate, you can elect whether you want your name and/or your donation amount displayed. When tax receipts are issued, HFTN is required to maintain certain donor information on file to be compliant with law, such as your full name and mailing address. We only use your payment information (such as a credit card number and expiry date) for the purpose of processing your donation via Stripe, a recognized and secure online gateway provider but this information is not stored at the Website. To find out more about the security of your payments, please read our Security Policy fully.
