Volunteer and contact inquiries

The forms collect the details you choose to provide, including your name, email, optional phone, availability, and message. Your permission to contact you is required. Submitting a form does not subscribe you to a mailing list or register you for an event.

Inquiries are stored in private, server-side storage for the charity’s authorized administrator to review and follow up. Private notes and contact information are not published or supplied to the public assistant. Please do not submit sensitive financial, medical, government-ID, or other private information. Contact the team about correction or removal of your inquiry.

Notifications

When a notification service is configured, it receives a submission reference, inquiry type, receipt time, and link to the admin area—not the visitor’s name, email, phone, or message. A website receipt confirms storage of the inquiry, not delivery of an email or acceptance into an activity.

Ask Us

Ask Us is a website guide, not a live representative. Common questions use published website information. Other questions may be processed through the personal Netlify AI Gateway and its AI provider. The assistant uses published content only; it cannot read inquiries, private notes, or unpublished drafts.

The application does not persist chat transcripts in browser storage or its database. Clear chat or reload to remove the displayed conversation. Hosting and AI providers process requests under their own practices. AI answers can be inaccurate; confirm arrangements with the charity team.

Admin access

The charity admin area checks an approved, confirmed personal account through the existing personal Control Center identity service. The server uses a secure, HttpOnly session cookie. It does not store account passwords. A successful sign-in is not permission to access unrelated websites or AMPORTS records.

Authorized administrators can export inquiry data. Exports include private contact details and must be stored securely. The public site has no access to those exports.

Website storage and links

This release adds no advertising trackers or third-party analytics. Public content is loaded from the charity’s own server. The earlier offline cache is retired; private APIs and admin content are not cached. Instagram links open an external service governed by that service’s practices.
