Privacy Policy

Information We Collect

Cascade Perspectives may collect information that users voluntarily provide, such as contact details submitted through email communications or forms. In addition, we gather non-identifying technical information automatically through standard web technologies, including browser type, device characteristics, pages visited, and approximate location data derived from IP addresses. This information helps us understand how visitors interact with the site and supports improvements to usability and content relevance. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 16 without appropriate consent.

How We Use Your Information

The information collected by Cascade Perspectives is used to maintain and enhance the website’s performance, improve user experience, and deliver relevant content. We may analyze aggregated data to identify usage trends, optimize layout and navigation, or address technical issues. If users directly contact us, provided information may be used to respond to inquiries or support requests. We do not sell or trade personal information, and all data handling practices are conducted with respect for user privacy.

Data Protection & Security

We implement reasonable safeguards to protect the information we collect from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include secure hosting environments, restricted access to stored information, and periodic reviews of our data management practices. While we strive to ensure the security of all user data, no online system can guarantee complete protection. Users are encouraged to take precautions when sharing sensitive information online and to contact us immediately if they suspect any security concerns.

Data Sharing & Third Parties

Cascade Perspectives does not share personal information with third parties except when required to comply with legal obligations or when necessary to maintain essential website operations, such as analytics or hosting services. These service providers are required to handle information responsibly and are not permitted to use it for purposes unrelated to supporting the website. We do not engage in the sale, rental, or disclosure of personal data for marketing or advertising purposes.

Your Rights & Choices

Users have the right to request access to personal information they have provided, as well as the ability to seek corrections or deletion where appropriate. While we may retain certain data for legal or operational purposes, we strive to respect user preferences whenever feasible. Individuals may also limit certain types of data collection by adjusting browser settings, declining cookies, or opting out of non-essential tracking tools. Any questions regarding data rights may be directed to our contact email.

Data Retention

We retain collected information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy or to comply with legal obligations. Technical data used for analytics is typically stored in aggregated form and does not personally identify visitors. Correspondence or direct communications may be kept for record-keeping and service quality purposes. Once information is no longer required, we make reasonable efforts to securely delete or anonymize it according to best practices.
