Privacy Policy
Privacy Statement, effective as of 1 February 2026
For Volunteers
Samaritan develops web based software for managing volunteers for use by our clients. We provide tools that allow our clients to work with the volunteer data that we store on their behalf. We are stewards, not owners, of the data about volunteers that we store for our clients. Since the volunteer data is not ours, we do not sell volunteer data. Formally each of our clients is the “Data Controller” for their data stored on our systems and Samaritan is the “Data Processor“.
Typical data stored by our clients on our systems will include things such as contact information, background check results/status, scheduling/availability data, service history/hours logged, health screening information, emergency contact information, survey and training data, waivers, and for minors information about parents or guardians and permission forms. You should contact the organization that you volunteer with for details about the specific information that they store about volunteers on our systems.
All data stored on our systems is rigorously secured both in storage and in transit. Nevertheless, be aware that no system is perfect. If you are a volunteer and would like to know the privacy policies regarding your information stored in our systems, including, but not limited to what information is stored, how to update it, how to delete it, and how long it may be stored after your organization terminates its relationship with Samaritan, you should review the privacy policy of the organization that you volunteer with. If you volunteer for a HIPAA Covered Entity and your volunteer data contains Protected Health Information (PHI), federal and state laws may require that we store and protect information about you for several years even after the organization you volunteer with has terminated its relationship with us.
Many of our clients have us integrate our systems with those of various subprocessors that provide services such as volunteer related background checks, electronic messaging, scheduling, health screenings and other things. Data shared with these subprocessors may include things such as basic contact information, dates of birth, social security numbers, and other things depending on the particular service. Only the minimum data needed for each type of service is shared with the subprocessors selected for integration by each of our clients. For the particulars of which items of volunteer information are shared with which subprocessor you should contact the organization with which you volunteer.
For Samaritan’s Customers
Samaritan Customers may electronically submit data or information to the Services for hosting and processing purposes (“Customer Data”). Samaritan will not share, distribute (including to any third party artificial intelligence service), or sell any such Customer Data except as provided in Samaritan’s Subscription and Services Agreement with the customer, or as may be required by law. For additional information about the Company’s privacy and security practices with respect to Customer Data, customers should refer to the specific agreement between Samaritan and the customer.
