LaxEd Indiana respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you visit our website, voluntarily submit information through a form, contact us, register interest in a program, make a donation, or otherwise communicate with us online.

LaxEd Indiana exists to help schools, families, and communities grow safe, positive, and accessible youth and high school lacrosse opportunities in Indiana.

3. Children’s Privacy

Because LaxEd Indiana works with youth sports and school communities, we are especially mindful of children’s privacy.

Our website is intended primarily for adults, including parents, guardians, educators, coaches, donors, and community partners. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 18 without parent or guardian involvement.

If information about a child or student is submitted to us, it should be provided by a parent, guardian, school representative, or other authorized adult. If you believe a child under 18 has submitted personal information to us without appropriate permission, please contact us and we will take reasonable steps to delete the information.

​

4. Donations, Payments, and Third-Party Services

If our website allows donations, sponsorship payments, event registrations, email signups, or form submissions, those services may be processed by third-party providers such as payment processors, form tools, website hosting providers, email platforms, or analytics services.

These providers may collect and process information according to their own privacy policies. LaxEd Indiana does not store full credit card numbers or bank account information unless clearly stated and handled through a secure, authorized provider.

Examples of third-party services we may use include:

• Website hosting providers

• Online form providers

• Donation or payment processors

• Email communication platforms

• Analytics tools

• Social media platforms

You should review the privacy policies of any third-party services you interact with through our website.

Please avoid submitting sensitive personal information through our website unless it is necessary.

​

8. Data Retention

We keep personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including communication, program administration, donation records, legal compliance, or organizational recordkeeping.
