Donor privacy
BiftuSpark does not sell donor information. Donor records are used for receipts, communication, reporting, accounting, compliance, and supporter service.
Gift acceptance
BiftuSpark accepts gifts that support its education access purpose and reserves the right to decline gifts that create legal, reputational, operational, or ethical concerns.
Restricted gifts
Restricted gifts should be documented in writing. If a restriction cannot be honored, BiftuSpark will contact the donor when practical and seek an aligned use.
Receipts and tax language
BiftuSpark is a U.S. 501(c)(3) public charity. Donors should keep platform receipts and consult their own tax advisor for deductibility questions.
Refund review
Refund requests are reviewed based on platform rules, timing, payment status, and whether funds have been assigned or spent.
Conflicts of interest
Board members, officers, and decision-makers should disclose conflicts and recuse themselves from decisions where personal benefit could compromise judgment.
Public operating commitments
BiftuSpark names operating costs plainly and avoids unsupported field-result claims. Donor updates should connect gifts to budget categories, decisions, purchases, media documentation, and next milestones.
Non-cash or complex gifts
Gifts of stock, cryptocurrency, property, equipment, services, or other complex assets require review before acceptance. BiftuSpark may decline gifts that carry excessive restrictions, unclear ownership, privacy risk, valuation risk, or maintenance obligations.
Designated giving
When donors request a designation, BiftuSpark will make reasonable efforts to use the gift for that purpose if it fits the organization's charitable work. If circumstances change, the organization may use funds for the nearest practical education access purpose.
