Privacy Policy

Once Upon Our Time Capsule (referred to herein as “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) has created this Privacy Policy to describe our practices with regard to processing the personal information that we collect through our website, ourtimecapsule.org (“Website”).

We ask that only adults over the age of 18 contact us through our Website and that any personal information provided about a child is only provided by a parent or guardian of that child. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13 on our Website.

I. Personal Information We Collect

We may collect the following information from parents or guardians:

  • Contact information, such as full name, email address, mailing address, and phone number.

  • Information about the child(ren) participating in our program, such as first name, school, and grade level.

  • We may use cookies or other technologies to automatically collect information from individuals who interact with our Website, including information about how you use and interact with our Website, information about your device, and internet usage information. For example, we currently employ Google Analytics on our Website, which may use cookies and other tracking technologies to perform their services. Google Analytics helps us improve the Website, performance, and user experiences.

II. How We Process Your Personal Information

We primarily use, disclose, and/or otherwise process the personal information we collect for the following purposes:

  • To operate our Website;

  • To facilitate and communicate with you about our programs;

  • To provide you with information you request;

  • To enable your support for our organization (e.g., accepting donations);

  • To notify you about marketing and promotional opportunities; and

  • To improve our services and website functionality generally.

  • We may also process the information where necessary for legal compliance purposes (e.g., complying with legal requirements, reporting and similar requirements; investigating and responding to legal claims; completing due diligence; protecting safety, property or rights; detecting, preventing, and responding to security incidents; and protecting against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity), or in connection with a corporate transaction (e.g., if we acquire, or some or all of our assets are acquired by, another entity).

To accomplish the above purposes, we may disclose personal information to third parties, including vendors and service providers; professional consultants; law enforcement, government agencies, and similar recipients (for legal compliance purposes); and other entities in connection with a corporate transaction.

Unless we have obtained your consent to do so, we do not make personal information collected about children publicly available. We will not condition a child’s participation in any activity or service on the disclosure of more personal information than is reasonably necessary to participate in an activity.

Involvement in your family’s online lives is one of the most important safety tools available. In addition, we encourage you to educate yourself and your child on privacy concerns.
