This information is stored in a password-protected Google Drive, as well as the email that you send us to our Gmail account.
We use this information for the following purposes:
- We need this information in order to be able to contact you and process your request for funding.
- We use this information to create aggregated statistical data and other aggregated and/or inferred non-personal information, which we may use to provide and improve our programs and services; and to create reports for our donors and grantmakers to demonstrate that MSC is compliant with our use of their donated funds. For example, we regularly compile reports demonstrating how many migrants have received funding for library materials through MSC.
