PRIVACY POLICY

Effective date: July 23, 2026

The Scholarship Foundation of Wakefield (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates https://tsfofwakefield.org/. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard information when you use our services.

1. INFORMATION WE COLLECT
We may collect information you provide directly, including your name, email address, contact details, and information submitted through forms.

We may automatically receive device, browser, IP address, usage, and cookie information when you interact with our services.

2. HOW WE USE INFORMATION
We use information to provide and improve our services, communicate with you, maintain security, comply with law, and protect our rights. Where permitted, we may send marketing communications; you may opt out at any time.

3. LEGAL BASES AND INTERNATIONAL COVERAGE
This policy is designed as a general Worldwide baseline. Where applicable, we rely on consent, contract, legitimate interests, or legal obligations. Users may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or port their information, and to withdraw consent.

4. SHARING AND RETENTION
We may share information with vetted service providers, professional advisers, authorities when legally required, or as part of a business transaction. We retain information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above.

5. SECURITY AND INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards. No electronic system is completely secure. When information crosses borders, we use appropriate safeguards where required.

6. CHILDREN
Our services are not directed to anyone under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. In the event that we learn we have collected information from an individual under the age of 13, we will remove it. 

7. CONTACT
For privacy questions or requests, contact The Scholarship Foundation of Wakefield at admin@TSFofWakefield.org.

8. FORMS, NEWSLETTERS, AND COMMUNICATIONS
When you subscribe to a newsletter, register, place an order, request support, or submit a form, we may collect the information you provide, such as your name, email address, telephone number, message, preferences, and transaction details. You may be able to browse portions of https://tsfofwakefield.org/ without directly identifying yourself, although device, cookie, and usage information may still be collected as described in this policy.

9. ADDITIONAL USES OF INFORMATION
We may use information to personalize your experience, improve our website, products, and services, respond to customer-service requests, process and deliver transactions, administer accounts, prevent fraud, and send administrative messages. Where permitted, we may also send newsletters or promotional communications. You may unsubscribe using the instructions in an email or contact us, although we may still send non-promotional messages about your account or transactions.

10. COOKIES, ANALYTICS, AND ADVERTISING

We and our service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to remember preferences, keep services functioning, understand aggregate site traffic and interactions, measure campaigns, and improve future experiences. Where required, we request consent before using non-essential analytics, personalization, or advertising technologies. Service providers may process information on our behalf only for authorized services and subject to appropriate contractual restrictions.

11. DISCLOSURES AND THIRD-PARTY LINKS

We may disclose information to service providers that help us host and operate https://tsfofwakefield.org/, conduct our business, process transactions, communicate with users, or provide support. We may also disclose information in connection with a business transaction, to comply with law or legal process, enforce our policies, or protect rights, property, safety, and security. Links to third-party websites or services are governed by those parties’ own terms and privacy notices; we are not responsible for their content or privacy practices.

12. PRIVACY RIGHTS, SCOPE, AND CHANGES

Depending on where you live, including certain U.S. states such as California, you may have rights concerning access, correction, deletion, portability, restriction, objection, consent withdrawal, or certain sales, sharing, targeted advertising, or profiling. These rights may be subject to exceptions, and we may need to verify your request. This policy applies to information collected through the online services it identifies unless another notice states otherwise. We may update it and will post the revised version with a new effective date. Where consent is our legal basis, you may withdraw it as permitted by law without affecting processing that occurred beforehand.
