5. Donations and Payment Processing

Donations made through our website may be processed by third-party payment processors.

These providers may collect information necessary to process your transaction, including payment card information, billing information, and contact information.

Their collection and use of your information is governed by their own privacy policies and terms.

  • Payment processors

  • Registration or event-management providers

  • Analytics providers

  • Technology and database service providers

  • Professional advisers

  • Contractors or service providers working on our behalf

These providers may receive only the information reasonably necessary to perform their services.

We may also disclose information when required by law, court order, government request, or when we reasonably believe disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, safety, or property of MJ Rise, our participants, or others.

8. Children’s Privacy

MJ Rise may provide programs, events, educational opportunities, or activities involving children and teenagers.

When information about a minor is required for participation in one of our programs or events, we encourage a parent or legal guardian to provide the information on the minor’s behalf.

We do not knowingly collect personal information online directly from children under the age of 13 without appropriate parental or legal guardian consent.

If we learn that we have collected personal information directly from a child under 13 without appropriate consent, we will take reasonable steps to delete the information.

Parents or legal guardians who believe that a child has provided personal information to us may contact us to request that the information be reviewed or deleted.

9. Photos, Videos, and Event Media

MJ Rise may photograph or record programs, tournaments, community events, or other activities.

Where appropriate, separate permission, consent, or media-release procedures may apply, particularly when children or minors participate.

This Privacy Policy does not replace any separate participant agreement, parental consent form, or media release that may be required for a specific program or event.

10. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

However, no method of transmitting information over the internet or storing information electronically is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. Data Retention

We may retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, operate our programs, maintain appropriate nonprofit and financial records, comply with legal obligations, and resolve disputes.

When information is no longer reasonably required, we may delete or anonymize it.

12. Third-Party Websites and Services

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, social media platforms, donation services, registration systems, or other external services.

MJ Rise is not responsible for the privacy practices, security, or content of third-party websites or services.

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is not currently a universally accepted standard for responding to Do Not Track signals, our website may not respond to all such signals.

You can control many tracking technologies through your browser settings and available cookie controls.

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our website, programs, technology, legal requirements, or organizational practices.
