Information We Collect

Securities. The information about the securities you provide aids us in obtaining the right security lots from your account, and liquidating them on behalf of the charitable organization you designate as the recipient by navigating to Overflow’s services their website or application. We collect information on the securities’ cost basis, entry investment date, current fair market value, and number of shares held to recommend the batch of security donations that generate the most tax savings.

Overflow provides the best estimates for your tax savings based on a generalized tax calculator and does not provide legal or tax advice.
Certain federal income tax deductions may be available depending on whether an individual itemizes deductions. Rules and regulations regarding tax deductions for charitable giving differ based on the state, and laws of a specific state or laws relevant to a particular situation may affect the applicability, accuracy, or completeness of the information provided. Donating securities held for more than one year generally allows for a tax deduction equal to the fair market value.
