Privacy Policy

Last updated October 7, 2026

AAPI Network is a 501(c)(3) public charity, EIN 33-2987062, based in Chicago, Illinois. This page explains what information we collect through our website and what we do with it. We keep it short because we collect very little.

What we collect

  • Information you send us. If you email us, we receive your name, email address, and whatever you choose to write.
  • Newsletter signups. If you subscribe to our updates, we receive your email address and any other details the signup form asks for. Our mailing list is managed by Brevo, a third-party email platform.
  • Event and article submissions. Submission forms are currently hosted by Chicago Asian Network, a separate local organization. Information you submit through those forms goes to Chicago Asian Network and is shared with us so we can review it together.
  • Donation information. Donations are processed by Zeffy, a third-party payment platform. Your payment details go to Zeffy, not to us. We receive your name, email address, and donation amount so we can acknowledge the gift and meet our recordkeeping obligations.
  • Basic site usage. Our web host records standard server data such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited. We use this only to keep the site running and secure.

How we use it

We use your information to answer your message, deliver the services you asked for, send the updates you signed up for, review submissions, acknowledge donations, and keep the records a nonprofit is required to keep. That is all.

What we do not do

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We do not share your information with anyone except the service providers we need to operate, such as our web host, our email platform, and our donation processor; Chicago Asian Network, for submissions made through its forms; or when the law requires it.

Email

If you subscribe, contact us, or donate, we may send occasional updates about our work. Every message includes an unsubscribe link, and you can ask us to remove you at any time by writing to hello@aapinetwork.com.

Cookies

Our site uses only the cookies necessary for it to function. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings.

How long we keep it

We keep correspondence and donation records for as long as we need them for our work and for as long as tax and nonprofit recordkeeping rules require.

Your choices

You can ask us what information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. Write to hello@aapinetwork.com and we will respond within a reasonable time.

Children

Our website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.

Changes

If we update this policy, we will post the new version here and change the date at the top of the page.
