Privacy Policy

How Patriot Ranch collects, uses, and safeguards the personal information of our donors and community.

This policy was last updated on September 4, 2026. If you have any questions about how your information is handled, please contact us at kurt@patriotranch.org or (515) 360-0304.

Information We Collect

We collect information you voluntarily provide through our forms, including contact details (name, email, phone, address), nomination details, vehicle donation information, volunteer profiles, and event sign-ups.

When you make a donation, we receive the transaction details necessary to process your gift. We do not store full credit card numbers on our servers — payments are processed securely through our payment provider.

We may also collect limited analytics data (such as pages visited and general location) to understand how our site is used and to improve our programs.

How We Use Your Information

To respond to your inquiries, process donations, review nominations, coordinate vehicle pickups, and manage volunteer participation.

To send you updates, newsletters, and event invitations if you have opted in. You may unsubscribe from communications at any time.

To fulfill our mission of supporting Iowa veterans, first responders, and community members, and to improve the services we offer.

How We Protect Your Data

Access to personal information is restricted to authorized Patriot Ranch leadership and administrators. Our systems use row-level security so that one user cannot view another user’s private submissions.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We may share limited data only with trusted service providers who help us operate (such as payment processors and email platforms), and only under strict confidentiality obligations.

We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined here or as required by law.

Your Rights

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information at any time by contacting us.

You may opt out of marketing communications without affecting the services we provide to you.

If you are a California or other U.S. state resident, you may have additional rights regarding your personal data under applicable privacy laws.

Commitment to Our Community

Patriot Ranch is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Protecting the trust and privacy of the veterans, first responders, donors, and volunteers we serve is fundamental to our mission. If our practices ever change, we will update this page and notify you where appropriate.
