EmpowerEd, LLC (“EmpowerEd,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a for-profit social enterprise based in Massachusetts that provides financial-literacy education to young people. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit our website or interact with our programs.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly to us—such as when you join our waitlist, sign up for our newsletter, or contact us. This may include your name, email address, age or grade level, school or organization, and any message you send us. We also automatically collect limited technical information, such as your browser type, device, and pages visited, through cookies and analytics tools.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to respond to your inquiries; to communicate with you about our programs, waitlist, and updates; to operate and improve our website and services; and to comply with legal obligations.

3. Youth and Users Under 18

EmpowerEd serves young people ages 13–25. If you are under 18, we encourage you to involve a parent or guardian before providing personal information. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us information, please contact us and we will delete it. A parent or guardian may request that we access, correct, or delete information about their minor child.

4. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with trusted service providers who help us operate our website and communications (for example, email and hosting platforms) and where required by law. These providers may use your information only to provide services to us.

5. Cookies and Analytics

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate our site and understand how it is used. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling them may affect some features of the site.

6. Data Retention

We retain your information for as long as needed to provide our services and for legitimate business or legal purposes, after which we take steps to delete or anonymize it.

7. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Your Rights and Choices

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, and you may unsubscribe from our emails at any time using the link in our messages or by contacting us. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under applicable law.
