Trust & Stewardship

We treat your data as we treat the land — with care, reciprocity, and respect.

This page describes how the Malyk Sacred Foundation collects, uses, stores, and protects the information you share with us. It is maintained by the Foundation and updated as our practices evolve.

Our Commitment

The Malyk Sacred Foundation is a people-centered, land-rooted organization. We collect only what we need to respond to you, steward relationships, and keep our community safe. We do not sell personal information, and we do not use it for advertising or profiling.

What We Collect

Contact form submissions. When you write to us through the contact form, we collect your name, email address, subject, and message so we can respond. These messages are stored in our secure database and forwarded to our team by email.

Email communications. If you correspond with us by email, we retain those messages to maintain the relationship and respond to your inquiries.

No account required. Most of the site can be browsed without creating an account or sharing any personal information.

How We Use It
  • To respond to your inquiries and build meaningful relationships.
  • To coordinate volunteer opportunities, partnerships, and events.
  • To send transactional emails related to your interactions with us.
  • To maintain the security and integrity of our communications.
How We Protect It

Our application is built on a modern, edge-hosted platform with industry-standard encryption for data in transit (TLS) and at rest. Access to backend systems is restricted to authorized team members, and database functions are secured with role-based access controls.

We regularly review our security posture and apply fixes as needed. However, no system is perfectly secure. If you discover a vulnerability, please contact us at ertyumichael@gmail.com and we will address it with urgency and gratitude.

Cookies & Analytics

We do not use third-party advertising or tracking cookies. Any cookies served are limited to essential site functionality and basic analytics to help us understand how visitors engage with our work — always in aggregate, never used to identify or profile individuals.

Retention & Deletion

We retain contact messages for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which they were collected — typically while a relationship or inquiry is active. You may request deletion of your personal information at any time by emailing us, and we will honor that request within a reasonable timeframe.

Your Rights & Requests

You have the right to know what information we hold about you, to correct inaccuracies, and to request deletion. To exercise these rights, or if you have any privacy concerns, please reach out via ertyumichael@gmail.com or our contact form. We will respond with care and in a timely manner.

Shared Responsibility

This application is hosted on a platform that provides infrastructure-level security, encryption, and availability guarantees. The Foundation is responsible for how we configure and use those capabilities — including access controls, data handling practices, and the content we publish. If you have questions about the platform itself, please refer to the platform provider's own trust and security documentation.
