FAQs
1 / Is outsourcing my database management secure?
Yes, we use your database.
We use your database the same way that you use your database when you are working remotely.
2 / Is my data secure?
Our business will never release your information to any email that does not have a YOURORGNAME.org email. We won’t send to a Gmail or any other address without your express permission from an official email address.
For Philanthropy Solutions, keeping your data confidential is our top priority. If we cannot keep your information confidential, we cannot exist as a company.
3 / If you are not in the office, how do you process donations?
All you do is snap a picture of any check and send it (text, email, Harry Potter owl if secure) to us.
We do not deal with checks; we are not a check deposit service. Once you’ve done that, send the check to finance to be deposited.
Credit cards and auto payments are much more straightforward as they generate confirmation emails. Auto credit card payments are entered into your payment processing services with security protocol from the service
4 / What will outsourcing my database cost?
Several factors determine costs, including:
-
The size of your database.
-
The number of gifts you have each year.
-
The size of your team (more people mean more requests, etc.).
-
The amount of “on-call” or “admin” time you feel is appropriate.
Typically, we can do the job with the same budget that you would plan on paying to hire an in-house database manager. The value of outsourcing is that 1) stability, you won’t be hiring another person in 12-18 months, and 2) the additional services that we can provide that help you raise more money.
