Effective Date: July 25, 2026

 

Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Placer Freedom Foundation ("Placer Freedom Foundation," "we," "our," or "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on www.placerfreedomfoundation.org (the "Website").

By continuing to use our Website, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this Cookie Policy, except where your browser settings or applicable law require otherwise.

 

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website.

Cookies help websites function properly, remember your preferences, improve performance, and provide information about how visitors use a website.

Cookies generally cannot be used to identify you personally by themselves, although they may be associated with information you voluntarily provide.

 

2. Cookies We Use

Because our Website is hosted on the Wix platform, certain cookies are automatically used to provide the Website's core functionality.

We currently use the following categories of cookies.

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the operation and security of the Website.

They help:

  • Maintain Website security

  • Detect malicious activity

  • Enable basic Website functionality

  • Remember technical settings during your visit

  • Support accessibility and performance

Because these cookies are necessary for the Website to function, they generally cannot be disabled through our Website.

 

Analytics Cookies

We use Wix Analytics to better understand how visitors interact with our Website.

Analytics cookies may collect information such as:

  • Pages viewed

  • Time spent on the Website

  • Navigation patterns

  • Device type

  • Browser type

  • General geographic region

  • Referring websites

This information is used only in aggregate to help us improve our Website and better serve visitors.

We do not use analytics information to identify individual visitors.

 

Future Services

As our Website grows, we may introduce additional services that use cookies, including email communications, online forms, donation tools, or other Website features.

If we make significant changes to our cookie practices, we will update this Cookie Policy.

 

3. Third-Party Cookies

Our Website may utilize services provided by trusted third parties that place or manage cookies on our behalf.

These may include:

  • Wix (Website hosting and functionality)

  • Wix Analytics (Website analytics)

  • Wix Payments (if you make a donation)

  • Mailchimp (if you subscribe to our email newsletter in the future)

Each of these providers maintains its own privacy and cookie practices.

 

4. Managing Cookies

Most web browsers allow you to:

  • View stored cookies

  • Delete cookies

  • Block cookies

  • Receive notifications before cookies are placed

You can usually manage cookies through your browser's settings or preferences.

Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality or performance of our Website.

 

5. Do Not Track Signals

Some web browsers include a "Do Not Track" ("DNT") feature.

Because there is currently no universally accepted standard for responding to DNT signals, our Website does not currently respond differently when such signals are received.

 

6. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or our Website practices.

Any changes will become effective when the updated Cookie Policy is posted on this Website.
