5. Children's Privacy

Some of our programs, such as Apollo & Artemis and Roots & Wings, serve youth and families. Where a program involves children under 18, we collect only the information necessary to administer the program (such as a parent or guardian's contact information for registration) and do so with parental or guardian consent.

Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under pertinent privacy laws. We will honor requests consistent with those laws.

7. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot ensure absolute security.

8. Third-Party Links

Our Site may contain links to third-party websites, such as Beloved Venue (belovedwedding.org). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to review their privacy policies.

9. Changes to This Policy
