Privacy Policy and Disclaimer.
How we handle the information you share with us, and what our website can and cannot do for you.
Effective November 2026
Who we are
The Lighthouse Risk and Readiness Consulting Group, LLC ("The Lighthouse," "we," "us") provides child safeguarding consulting, training, and assessment services to youth-serving organizations. This policy covers lighthouserrcg.com and the forms, tools, and videos on it.
Information we collect
- Information you give us. When you request a consultation or contact us, we collect your name, role or title, work email, phone number (optional), organization, organization type, area of interest, and your message.
- Scheduling. If you book a time with us, our scheduling provider (Google Calendar) collects the details you enter there, under Google's privacy policy.
- Organizational tools. Risk Aware and our other self-check tools collect information about an organization's policies and practices. They are not designed to collect information about individual children.
- Technical information. Our website host may automatically collect basic information such as browser type, pages visited, and approximate location, and may use essential cookies to keep the site secure and working.
Please do not include the names or identifying details of any child, or details of a specific incident, in our forms or emails. If you need to discuss a specific situation, we will arrange a confidential conversation.
How we use information
- To respond to your request and schedule consultations
- To provide, plan, and improve our services and resources
- To send information you ask for. We do not add you to a mailing list unless you opt in, and you can unsubscribe at any time.
- To keep our website secure and meet legal obligations
We do not sell or rent personal information.
Who we share it with
We share information only with service providers who help us run our business, and only as needed for that purpose: Wix (website hosting and forms), Google (scheduling and email), and YouTube (video playback). Videos on our site use YouTube's privacy-enhanced mode, which limits tracking until you play a video. We may also disclose information when required by law, or to protect the safety of a child or another person.
Children's privacy
Our website is designed for adults who lead, staff, and support youth-serving organizations. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has submitted information to us, contact us and we will delete it.
How long we keep information
We keep inquiry and client information only as long as needed to serve you, maintain business records, and meet legal requirements, and then delete or de-identify it.
Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so please share only what is needed through the website.
Your choices and rights
You may ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, or to stop contacting you. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under state law. Email info@lighthouserrcg.com and we will respond within a reasonable time.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as our services change. We will post the updated version here with a new effective date.
