Sal y Roca ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website salyroca.org. This page explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what choices you have. We keep this simple because we believe in transparency. If you have questions about anything here, email us at info@salyroca.org.

What we collect
We collect information you give us directly. This includes your name, email address, mailing address, and phone number when you fill out a form on our site — like the contact form, volunteer application, email signup, or donation form. When you make a donation, your payment is processed by our third-party payment provider (currently Zeffy). We do not store your credit card number, bank account details, or other financial information on our servers. Our payment provider handles that securely. Our website also collects some information automatically when you visit. This may include your IP address, browser type, the pages you visit, and how long you spend on the site. This comes from cookies and similar technologies, which we explain below.

How we use your information
We use the information we collect to respond to your inquiries and requests, to process donations and send tax receipts, to send you updates and newsletters (if you signed up for them), to improve our website and understand how people use it, and to communicate with volunteers about opportunities and scheduling. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to anyone. Period.

Donor privacy
We take donor privacy seriously. Your giving history and contact information are kept confidential. We will not share your information with other organizations, and we will not publish your name as a donor without your permission. If you make a donation, you will receive a tax receipt and may receive occasional updates about our work. You can opt out of communications at any time by emailing info@salyroca.org or clicking the unsubscribe link in any email.

Cookies
Our website uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to help the site work properly and to understand how visitors use it. We use these for basic site functionality (like remembering your preferences) and for analytics (like understanding which pages are most visited). We may use third-party services like Google Analytics to help us understand site traffic. These services may place their own cookies on your device. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Turning off cookies may affect how some parts of the site work.

Third-party services
Our website may contain links to other websites (like our social media pages, partner organizations, or payment providers). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites. When you leave salyroca.org, we encourage you to read the privacy policy of any site you visit. We use the following third-party services that may collect data: Zeffy (donation processing), Airtable (form submissions), Google Analytics (website analytics), Mailchimp (email).

Email Communications
If you sign up for our email list, we will send you updates about our programs, stories from the community, and occasional requests for support. We try to keep it meaningful — expect updates, not spam. Every email includes an unsubscribe link. You can also email info@salyroca.org at any time to be removed from our list.

Children's privacy
Our website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through our website. Our youth programs serve children ages 8–18, and parental/guardian consent is obtained through in-person enrollment, not through this website. If you believe a child under 13 has submitted personal information through our site, please contact us at info@salyroca.org and we will remove it.

Data security
We take reasonable steps to protect the information you share with us. However, no website or electronic transmission is 100% secure. We do our best, but we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your rights
You can request to see what personal information we have about you, ask us to correct or update your information, ask us to delete your information, or opt out of email communications at any time. To make any of these requests, email us at info@salyroca.org. We will respond as quickly as we can.

California residents
If you are a California resident, you may have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). As a small nonprofit, we do not sell personal information. If you would like to exercise any rights under the CCPA, please contact us at info@salyroca.org.

Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make significant changes, we will post the updated policy on this page with a new effective date. We encourage you to check back occasionally.
