4. Types of Cookies We May Use
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are needed for the website to function properly. These may support basic features such as page navigation, security, form submission, donation processing, spam prevention, and access to secure areas.
Because these cookies are necessary for the website to work, they may not be disabled through our website controls.
Performance and Analytics Cookies
Performance and analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the website. For example, they may tell us which pages are visited most often, how visitors move through the site, whether visitors experience errors, and how we can improve the website.
Analytics information is generally used in an aggregated or statistical way.

These cookies help improve the visitor experience.

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies through donation platforms, contact forms, volunteer forms, partner inquiry forms, mailing list forms, book launch signup forms, or other website tools.
These tools may help process requests, prevent spam, remember form activity, or connect your submission with the appropriate third-party service.
Video and Embedded Content Cookies
Our website may include embedded videos or content from third-party platforms such as YouTube.
When you view or interact with embedded content, the third-party platform may place cookies or collect information according to its own privacy and cookie policies.
Social Media Cookies
Our website may link to or include content from social media platforms. These platforms may use cookies or similar technologies if you interact with their buttons, feeds, embedded posts, or links.
Social media platforms may use information about your activity according to their own policies.
Advertising, Retargeting, or Affiliate Cookies
JJ’s Safe Swim Memorial Fund may use third-party tools in the future to measure campaigns, promote fundraising efforts, share book release updates, track affiliate links, or understand whether visitors came from a particular campaign.
If we use Amazon affiliate links or other affiliate links, cookies or tracking technologies may be used by those third-party platforms to determine whether a purchase qualifies for a commission.
If we use advertising or retargeting tools, those tools may use cookies, pixels, or similar technologies to show relevant content or measure campaign performance.

Some cookies on our website may be placed by third-party service providers. These may include providers that support:

These third parties may collect information about your device, browser, website activity, and interaction with their services. Their use of cookies and similar technologies is governed by their own privacy and cookie policies.
JJ’s Safe Swim Memorial Fund does not control third-party cookies once they are placed by third-party services.
6. Cookie Duration
Cookies may be either session cookies or persistent cookies.
Session cookies are temporary and are usually deleted when you close your browser.
Persistent cookies may remain on your device for a set period of time or until you delete them.
The length of time a cookie remains on your device may depend on the type of cookie, your browser settings, and the third-party service placing the cookie.
7. How You Can Manage Cookies
You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- View cookies
- Delete cookies
- Block cookies
- Block third-party cookies
- Clear cookies when closing the browser
- Receive alerts before cookies are placed
Your browser’s help section should explain how to manage these settings.
Please note that blocking or deleting cookies may affect how the website functions. Some forms, donation tools, videos, embedded content, or interactive features may not work properly if cookies are disabled.
8. Cookie Consent and Preferences
Depending on the tools used on our website, we may provide a cookie banner, cookie notice, or cookie preference tool that allows visitors to learn about or manage certain categories of cookies.
Where required or appropriate, visitors may be able to accept, reject, or customize certain non-essential cookies.
Essential cookies may remain active because they are needed for the website to operate.
9. Global Privacy Control and Opt-Out Preference Signals
Some browsers, extensions, or privacy tools allow users to send opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control.
If our website uses tools that are subject to laws requiring recognition of certain opt-out preference signals, we will make reasonable efforts to honor those signals as required by applicable law.
10. Targeted Advertising, Sale, or Sharing of Personal Information
JJ’s Safe Swim Memorial Fund does not sell donor information.
If we use advertising, retargeting, affiliate tracking, analytics, or social media tools, some U.S. privacy laws may define certain data sharing or tracking activities as a “sale,” “sharing,” or use for “targeted advertising,” depending on the law and the technology involved.
Where applicable, visitors may have the right to opt out of certain types of targeted advertising, sale, or sharing of personal information.
If we implement tools that trigger these rights, we will provide a way for eligible visitors to exercise those choices.
11. Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is not one uniform industry standard for responding to Do Not Track signals, our website may not respond to all Do Not Track signals.
We may, however, respond to legally recognized opt-out preference signals where required by applicable law.
12. Children’s Privacy and Cookies
Our website is intended for adults, including parents, guardians, donors, educators, healthcare providers, swim schools, community partners, and supporters.
We do not knowingly use cookies to collect personal information directly from children under 13 without appropriate parental or guardian consent.
If you believe a child has provided personal information through our website, please contact us so we can review and address the matter.
13. Updates to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, website tools, third-party services, legal requirements, or organizational practices.
When we update this Cookie Policy, we will revise the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page.
