We do not knowingly collect or process information from children, though we may collect information from parents for children to enable their use of programming and services. For families and children that attend programming or events, we may process additional information including the family type, child’s name and age, to reserve their space in the program and ensure resources are available for their attendance. After programming, parents may exercise their rights to access, delete, or refuse the processing of their children’s data. To do so, please email us directly at info@thelighthousedenver.org. Outside of this, personal information and sensitive collection and processing is limited. Donor information is collected and encrypted through a third party service. Please review the ‘What are the Privacy Policies of Connected Third Parties?’ Section to learn more.

What Are Cookies? What Do They Have to Do With Anything?
Cookies are small text files created by most if not all websites that are stored on your device by your web-browser. They function almost like a digital identification card, to remember user information and preferences. On other websites, ‘remembered’ information may include login credentials, shopping cart contents, and personal preferences, like language, across your may different sessions on the site. Ultimately, they help websites to personalize your experience, and may be used to track and advertise. They’re generally safe, and do not compromise users, unless there are vulnerabilities in how they are handled. To learn more about cookies, check out this website article by the Federal Trade Commission: Internet Cookies. Also be sure to check out: What are Cookies?

Communications with site users will only take place with consent, as
shown by voluntarily submitted information. Communications will largely take place by email newsletter. As necessary, applicable users may also receive telephone communications, via text, or phone call. This communication takes place to support families and children in Light House Denver support programming, and to connect with volunteers helping our cause.

Please inquire directly if you’d like more information about how we protect your information, by emailing us at info@lighthousedenver.org. Additionally, to ensure security, we have a system of security features that work together to ensure user safety. In the event of any breach, our users will be notified via email within 7 business days, and remedied accordingly. Any affected users will be notified directly, while the key information about the breach will be
featured on the website to support transparency in user safety.
