This privacy policy explains what information SeatbeltsAreForEveryone.org (“we,” “us”) collects when you visit the site, how it is used, and the choices you have. The site is run by Cesar Marroquin. Questions go to [email protected].
Information we collect
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, our hosting provider’s servers automatically log basic technical information when you visit: your IP address, browser type, the pages you request, the referring page, and the date and time. We use these logs to keep the site running, fix errors, and protect it from abuse and automated attacks. We do not use them to identify individual visitors.
Cookies
The site uses a small number of cookies and similar technologies that are needed for it to work, such as caching and security features provided by our hosting platform. If we add analytics or other non-essential cookies, we will list them here and, where the law requires it, ask for your consent first.
Information you give us
- Email. If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you include in your message. We use it only to reply to you and to fix any errors you report.
- Newsletter (if offered). If you sign up for email updates, we collect your email address and use it only to send those updates. Every message includes an unsubscribe link.
How we use information
- To operate, secure, and improve the site
- To answer messages and correction requests
- To send email updates you asked for
We do not sell or rent your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.
Service providers
We rely on a few outside companies to run the site. They process data on our behalf under their own privacy policies:
- Web hosting: Hostinger (servers, caching, security, and server logs)
- Email updates (if enabled): Hostinger Reach
If we add other services, such as analytics or affiliate programs, we will update this list.
Links to other websites
Our articles link to government agencies, research organizations, and other sites. We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Please read their policies when you visit them.
Affiliate links
If a page contains affiliate links, the retailer may use cookies to record that you came from our site. See our affiliate disclosure.
Data retention
We keep emails only as long as needed to handle your request. Newsletter addresses are kept until you unsubscribe. Server logs are kept according to our hosting provider’s standard retention period.
Your choices and rights
You can ask us to access, correct, or delete personal information you have given us by emailing [email protected]. Depending on where you live, including California and other U.S. states with privacy laws, you may have additional rights, and we will honor valid requests. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings.
Children
This site is written for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we will update the effective date at the top of this page.
