Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 26, 2026.

Run 4 Awareness Guam (“Run 4 Awareness,” “we,” “us”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect through run4awareness.org, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Who we are

Run 4 Awareness Guam is a community initiative on Guam. Event funds for the 2026 Diabetes Awareness Sunset Run are handled by Reef Pursuit International Inc.. Questions about this policy can go to info@run4awareness.org.

Information we collect

Information you give us

Contact and inquiry forms: your name, email address, and the content of your message. Subject category if you select one.
Sponsor inquiries: business or organization name, contact person, phone, email, sponsorship level of interest, any logo you upload, and notes.
Volunteer sign-ups: name, email, phone, preferred volunteer area, availability, and any notes or skills you share.
Newsletter sign-up: your email address, and only your email address.
Donations: if you donate through the payment link on this site, the payment processor collects your name, billing details, and payment information directly. We do not receive or store your card number. We may receive your name, email, and donation amount for acknowledgement and records.

Information collected automatically

Server logs: our web host records standard technical data such as IP address, browser type, pages visited, and timestamps, for security and troubleshooting.
Google Analytics: we use Google Analytics, a service run by Google, to understand how the site is used, such as which pages people read and which buttons they click (for example Register, Donate, Share, or a search result). Google Analytics sets cookies in your browser (listed under Cookies below) and receives information about your device, browser, approximate location, and the pages you visit. We do not send Google your name, your email address, or the words you type into our site search. Google’s privacy policy: policies.google.com/privacy.
Jetpack (Automattic): our site uses Jetpack, a WordPress service run by Automattic. Jetpack Stats counts page visits, and Jetpack’s image service delivers the images on our pages. To do this, Automattic receives your IP address, browser details, the page you visit, and the site that sent you here. Automattic’s privacy policy: automattic.com/privacy.

How we use your information

To respond to your questions, sponsor inquiries, volunteer offers, and partnership requests
To send race updates and diabetes resources, but only if you asked to receive them
To organize and run the event, coordinate volunteers, and recognize sponsors
To acknowledge and keep records of donations
To keep the site secure, fix problems, and understand what content is useful
To comply with the law and enforce our Terms of Use

How we share your information

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for anyone else’s marketing. We share it only:

With Reef Pursuit International Inc. as needed to administer event funds and donations
With service providers that operate the site on our behalf, such as our web host, form and email tools, and payment processor, who may only use it to provide their service to us
With Google (Google Analytics) and Automattic (Jetpack), as described above, under their own privacy policies
With event partners where you have clearly asked us to connect you, for example passing a sponsor inquiry to the sponsorship lead
If required by law, or to protect the safety, rights, or property of participants, the public, or Run 4 Awareness

Race registration happens elsewhere

You register for the run on RaceResult, a third-party registration platform, not on this site. The participant waiver is provided by the Guam Running Club. Any information you enter there, including the waiver, is governed by that platform’s own privacy policy and terms. Please review them before you register.

Cookies

This site sets these cookies:

Google Analytics (_ga and _ga_EECXQHRHRK): set by Google Analytics to tell visits apart and measure how the site is used. They last up to 2 years.
Organizer dashboard (wp-postpass_...): set only for organizers who enter the dashboard password, so they do not have to enter it again. It lasts up to 10 days.

The site also uses what it needs to work, for example remembering your theme preference. We do not use advertising cookies.

Your choices. We are adding a cookie choice to this site so you can decide whether Google Analytics runs, and we will update this policy when it is live. Until then, you can stop Google Analytics with Google’s official Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, and you can block or delete cookies in your browser settings.

Children

This site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through this site. A parent or guardian registers any minor for the race through the registration platform. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.

How long we keep information

We keep inquiry, volunteer, and sponsor information for as long as needed to act on it and for a reasonable period afterward for our records, then delete it. Newsletter subscribers are kept until they unsubscribe. Donation records are kept as long as required for accounting and any applicable reporting.

Your choices and rights

Unsubscribe: every newsletter email has an unsubscribe link, and it takes effect right away.
Access, correction, deletion: email us to ask what personal information we hold about you, to correct it, or to have it deleted. We will respond within a reasonable time.
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act. We honor these requests regardless of whether the law strictly applies to us.

Security

We use reasonable measures to protect the information we hold, and we limit who can access form submissions. No website or method of transmission is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Links to other sites

This site links to other organizations, the registration platform, sponsors, partners, and resources. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of sites we do not operate.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the organization and the site develop. The “last updated” date at the top shows when it last changed. Significant changes will be noted on this page.
