It also explains your choices about how we communicate with you.

We use information to support our mission, provide services and create opportunities for community participation.

Depending on how you engage with us, we may use your information to:

  • Improve our websites, programs, services and communications.
  • Maintain records and meet applicable legal obligations.

We aim to communicate in ways that are useful, respectful and connected to your interests.

Providing contact information to participate in a program, complete a transaction or receive a service does not automatically enroll you in marketing text messages.

3. Email and Text Message Communications

You may choose to receive updates from Bend-Redmond Habitat for Humanity, including our Bend and Redmond ReStores, by email or text message.

These communications may include volunteer opportunities, community events, ReStore news and promotions, loyalty program updates and information about our work in Central Oregon.

Email Communications

If you subscribe to our marketing emails, you can unsubscribe using the link included in those messages.

You may also contact us at marketing@brhabitat.org to update your communication preferences.

Text Message Communications

We send marketing text messages only to individuals who have specifically opted in to receive them.

Providing your mobile phone number when making a purchase, donating, registering to volunteer, participating in an affordable homeownership program, joining our ReStore loyalty program or requesting another service does not, by itself, constitute consent to receive marketing text messages.

If you separately opt in to receive marketing text messages from Bend-Redmond Habitat for Humanity or our ReStores, we may use your mobile number to send communications related to the messaging program you selected.

The following terms apply to our text messaging programs:

  • Message frequency may vary.
  • Message and data rates may apply.
  • You can reply STOP to opt out of a text messaging program.
  • You can reply HELP for assistance, where supported by the program.
  • Consent to receive marketing text messages is not a condition of making a purchase or participating in our programs or services.

We do not sell or share mobile phone numbers or text messaging opt-in information with third parties for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

We may share information with service providers that help us deliver text messages, subject to appropriate restrictions on how they use that information.

For more information, please review our Mobile Text Messaging Terms and Conditions

We respect the trust you place in us when you share your information.

We may share information with trusted service providers when necessary to support activities such as:

  • Website operations and analytics.
  • Payment and donation processing.
  • ReStore transactions and loyalty program administration.
  • Email delivery and text messaging.
  • Volunteer and event registration.
  • Other services that support our operations and programs.

We may also disclose information when required by law or when reasonably necessary to protect the rights, safety or security of our organization and community.

5. Protecting Your Information

We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information entrusted to us from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or misuse.

These steps may include administrative, technical and organizational safeguards appropriate to the information we maintain.

No website, electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. We encourage you to use care when sharing personal information online.

6. Children's Privacy

Our websites are intended for a general audience and are not directed to children under the age of 13.

We do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13 without appropriate parental consent. If we learn that we have collected such information without the required consent, we will take appropriate steps to address it.
