Privacy Policy

Hispanic Capital Group ("HCG," "we," "us," or "our") is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you visit hispaniccapitalgroup.com or interact with our programs.

Information we collect

We collect information you provide directly to us, including when you:

• Apply to become a member of HCG
• Inquire about sponsorship or partnership
• Make a donation through our donation processor
• Subscribe to updates or contact us

This may include your name, email address, school, year, resume content, and other details submitted via our application and contact forms. We may also collect limited technical information automatically (IP address, device and browser type, referring site) to operate and secure the website.

How we use information

• Evaluate membership applications and administer the program
• Facilitate donations, issue tax-deductible receipts, and comply with nonprofit reporting requirements
• Respond to inquiries from applicants, sponsors, and alumni
• Maintain site performance, detect abuse, and improve the user experience
• Send program, event, and fundraising updates to people who have opted in

Cookies and analytics

The site uses a limited set of cookies for essential functionality and, with your consent, for analytics that help us understand how visitors use the site. You can manage your preferences at any time via the "Cookie Settings" link in the site footer. Blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of certain features.

Third-party services

We rely on a small number of trusted third-party providers:

• Givebutter — processes donations made via the Donate page. Payment information is submitted directly to Givebutter; HCG does not store card or bank details.
• Google Forms — hosts the membership application form.
• Vercel — hosts the website and provides basic request telemetry.
• GitHub— stores the site's code and content.

Each of these providers maintains its own privacy practices, which govern the information they process on our behalf.

Data sharing

We do not sell or rent personal information. We share information only with the service providers listed above, with sponsors when you have explicitly opted in (for example, via a resume book), or when required by law.

Data retention

We retain application, donation, and correspondence records for as long as necessary to operate the program, comply with legal and tax obligations, and resolve disputes. Alumni records may be retained indefinitely to support network activities.

Your choices

• Unsubscribe from email communications at any time via the link in the email
• Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you
• Request correction or deletion of your information, subject to legal and operational retention requirements

Children's privacy

The site is intended for university students and adults. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by an updated effective date at the top of this page.
