1. Fi uses recognized and secure payment technologies for processing donations. Payment information is transmitted using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption to ensure a secure connection.
    
2. Multiple layers of built-in security measures, including firewalls, encryption of payment information, and password protection systems, are implemented to safeguard collected data.
    

Donations successfully processed through the payment gateway are non-refundable.

No amount will be deducted if the transaction fails to process. Every contribution, regardless of the amount, plays an important role in supporting disadvantaged sections of society.
