Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 24, 2026

​

La Fuerza Latina respects your privacy and is committed to handling personal information responsibly. This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you visit lafuerzalatinatruckee.org, how that information may be used, and the choices available to you.

​

Information We Collect
 

We may collect information that you voluntarily provide when you:

• Submit a contact form

• Contact us by email

• Sign up for updates or communications

• Make a donation through our third-party donation platform

• Register for or inquire about a program, event, or volunteer opportunity
   

This information may include your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, donation details, and any information you include in a message or form.

Our website may also automatically collect limited technical information, such as your browser type, device type, IP address, pages visited, and general website activity through cookies and similar technologies.
 

How We Use Information
 

We may use the information collected through this website to:

• Respond to questions and requests

• Provide information about our programs and activities

• Process and acknowledge donations

• Communicate with supporters, volunteers, students, families, and community partners

• Improve the accessibility, content, and performance of the website

• Maintain website security and prevent misuse

• Comply with applicable legal, financial, and reporting requirements
   

We do not sell personal information.
 

Donations and Third-Party Services
 

Online donations are processed through Zeffy, a third-party fundraising and payment platform. When you make a donation, Zeffy may collect information needed to process the transaction, issue receipts, and manage payment-related matters. La Fuerza Latina may receive donor information made available through the Zeffy platform, such as the donor’s name, contact information, donation amount, and payment method category. Payment card and banking information is handled by Zeffy and its payment-processing providers rather than directly by La Fuerza Latina. Zeffy states that it may contact donors to provide transaction or tax receipts, address disputes or chargebacks, or respond to donor inquiries.
 

Donations to La Fuerza Latina may be administered through our fiscal sponsor, Sierra Business Council, as applicable.
 

Our website is hosted through Wix, which may process website visitor data and use cookies or similar technologies to provide essential site functions, security, analytics, and other services. Wix provides tools that allow visitors to accept or decline nonessential cookies when a cookie banner is enabled.
 

Cookies and Analytics
 

This website may use cookies and similar technologies to support essential website functions, understand how visitors use the site, and improve performance. Some cookies may be placed by Wix or other third-party services integrated into the website.
 

You may be able to manage certain cookie preferences through the cookie banner on the site or through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect how some website features function.
 

How We Share Information
 

We may share information only when reasonably necessary with:

• Wix and other website service providers

• Zeffy and payment-processing providers

• Sierra Business Council, when necessary for fiscal sponsorship, donation administration, accounting, or legal compliance

• Vendors or contractors who help operate our programs or communications

• Government agencies or other parties when required by law
   

These providers may have their own privacy policies and data-handling practices.
 

Data Security and Retention
 

We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information available to us. However, no online service, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
 

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, maintain organizational and financial records, meet legal obligations, or resolve disputes.
 

Email Communications
 

We may send communications to people who request information, participate in our programs, support our work, or otherwise provide their contact information. You may ask to stop receiving nonessential email communications at any time by using the unsubscribe option provided in the email, when available, or by contacting us.
 

Your Choices
 

You may contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information that you have provided directly to La Fuerza Latina. We will make reasonable efforts to respond, subject to any legal, financial, recordkeeping, or technical limitations.
 

Requests involving information collected directly by Zeffy, Wix, or another third-party provider may also need to be submitted to that provider.
 

Children’s Privacy
 

This website is intended to provide information about La Fuerza Latina and its programs. We do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13 without appropriate consent. Parents or guardians who believe a child has submitted personal information through the website may contact us to request its review or deletion.
 

Links to Other Websites
 

Our website may contain links to third-party websites. La Fuerza Latina is not responsible for the privacy, security, content, or accessibility practices of websites operated by other organizations.
 

Changes to This Policy
 

We may update this Privacy Policy as our website, programs, or data practices change. The updated date shown at the top of this page will indicate when the policy was most recently revised.
