Privacy & safety notice
Many people who contact us are dealing with abuse or an active court case. We’ve tried to keep this notice short and plain.

What we collect
Only what you choose to send us through our forms: your name (initials are fine), contact details, and your answers. We do not collect anything else about you.
Why we collect it
- To read and understand your experience or expertise, and to inform our research and advocacy.
- To contact you—for example, to follow up or to ask whether you’d like to take part in filming.
- To send you news, only if you signed up for it.
Who sees it
Only members of the A4 Safety Alliance team who need it for the purposes above. We do not sell or rent your information, and we will never publish your name or story without asking you first.
Where it’s stored
Form submissions are received and stored by our website host, Netlify, Inc., in the United States, and may be forwarded to A4 Safety Alliance email accounts.
Your choices
You can ask us at any time to see, correct or delete what you sent us, or to stop contacting you. Email Sherri@a4safetyalliance.org or use our contact form. You can unsubscribe from news using the link in any email.
If you’re in danger
We are an advocacy organization, not a crisis service, and our inbox is not monitored around the clock. If you are in immediate danger, call 911. The National Domestic Violence Hotline is available 24/7 at 1-800-799-7233 or by texting START to 88788.
