Online safety policy
FindARescue.ie helps connect people with animal rescues and rehoming organisations. We do not vet, endorse, or verify the organisations listed on this website.
Before donating, adopting, fostering, or sharing personal information, we recommend that you:
- Research the organisation independently.
- Check for a website, social media presence, and contact details.
- If the organisation claims to be a registered charity, verify its Registered Charity Number (RCN) on the Charities Regulator's public register.
- Ask questions about the animal's history, health, and care.
- Request veterinary records or adoption paperwork where appropriate.
- Visit the rescue or arrange a video call if possible.
- Be cautious of requests for unusual payment methods or urgent payments.
- Never share sensitive financial or personal information unless necessary and you are confident the organisation is legitimate.
If something seems suspicious, trust your judgement and discontinue contact.
FindARescue.ie is not responsible for transactions, agreements, communications, or disputes between users and organisations listed on the site.
