DAFpay is built and operated with comprehensive security tools and compliance protocols in accordance with all applicable regulations related to data privacy and protection. None of your DAF account information is recorded by DAFpay or shared with any parties.

By using DAFpay, both the donor and the nonprofit are able to track gifts in real time for the first time ever.
