Privacy Policy

Effective October 30, 2026. The Student Chapter of Central Louisiana (“the Chapter,” “we”) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that connects Louisiana high school students to careers in the skilled trades. This policy explains what information we collect through studentchapterofcenla.org, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Information we collect

Information you send us. When you use a form on this site, we receive what you type into it. Depending on the form, that can include your name, email address, phone number, organization or school, the topic and text of your message, and the answers and details you submit. The forms are: contact, Cenla Trades Day registration, vendor and exhibitor sign-up, sponsor inquiry, newsletter sign-up, and the scholarship application (which also asks for school, grade and GPA).

Teacher accounts. Teachers approved by the Chapter sign in with a one-time link sent to their email. We store the teacher’s name, school, email and phone, and the class roster information the teacher enters, such as student names, graduation year, shirt size, a parent or guardian email, and whether a permission slip has been returned. Roster information is visible to the teacher who entered it and to Chapter administrators.

Information collected automatically. We use Google Analytics and Google Ads measurement tags, which use cookies or similar technologies to record how visitors use the site, such as pages viewed, links clicked, device and browser type, approximate location, and the site or ad that brought you here. We use this to see which pages help families, schools and supporters, and to measure our Google Ads.

Donations. This website does not collect payment card or bank information. Gifts are made on Share Cenla, a giving site run by the Central Louisiana Community Foundation, under that site’s own terms and privacy policy.

How we use information

• To answer questions and respond to inquiries.
• To plan and run events such as Cenla Trades Day, including registrations, vendor logistics and follow-up.
• To review scholarship applications and contact applicants.
• To run the teacher portal, including class rosters and permission slips.
• To send the Chapter newsletter and event updates to people who ask for them. Every newsletter includes a way to unsubscribe.
• To understand site traffic and measure our advertising.
• To keep records and meet legal and nonprofit reporting obligations.

Who we share it with

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with: Chapter board members and volunteers who need it to run programs; scholarship reviewers (for scholarship applications); the service providers that help us operate the site, namely Cloudflare (website hosting and database), Google (email, Analytics and Ads) and Make.com (automation that sends our notifications and emails); and anyone we are required by law to share it with.

Your choices

You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the link in any issue. You can ask us to see, correct or delete information you gave us by emailing [email protected]. You can limit tracking by changing your browser’s cookie settings or using Google’s Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

Children’s privacy

This site is written for students’ families, teachers, schools, volunteers and sponsors. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. Student information in the teacher portal is entered by a teacher or school. A parent or guardian who wants information about a student reviewed or deleted can contact us at the email above.

Security

We use reasonable safeguards, including encrypted connections and limited access to the back office, to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we will post the new version on this page and update the date at the top.
