CA Impact Corp (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is a California 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to protecting the privacy of our website visitors, event participants, and community members. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and safeguard your personal information when you visit calimpact.org or participate in our programs.

1. Information We Collect

When you visit our website, we may automatically collect certain technical information, including:

Device information

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect anonymized usage data. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on.

If you register for a hike after clicking one of our ads or a link with campaign tags, your registration also records the ad click identifier (for example, the Google click ID) and the campaign tags (such as utm_source), plus the page where your visit started. We use this only to see whether our ads lead to real registrations and attendance. If you reject ad measurement cookies, we do not record the ad click identifier.

We use the information we collect to:

Register you for our community events and programs
Communicate with you about upcoming events, programs, and opportunities
Respond to your questions and requests
Improve our website, programs, and services
Understand the needs of our community
Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.

3. How We Protect Your Information

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your personal information. Our website uses SSL/TLS encryption (HTTPS) to secure data transmission. However, no method of internet transmission or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

4. Cookies

Essential cookies: Required for the website to function properly
Analytics cookies: Help us understand how visitors use our site (via Google Analytics)
Ad measurement cookies: Show us whether our Google ads lead to event registrations (via Google Ads). We do not use them for personalized advertising.

These cookies are placed only after you accept cookies. Form field contents such as names, email addresses, and phone numbers are masked and not recorded.

Visitors in the United States: analytics and ad measurement cookies are on by default, and you can turn them off at any time by choosing “Reject” in our cookie banner or in Cookie settings.
