How RTL Foundation collects, uses, and protects the information you share with us.
Last updated September 10, 2026
RTL Foundation ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. It applies to this website and the forms, applications, and inquiries you submit through it.
We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization headquartered at 2900 Welton Street, Suite 200, Denver, CO 80205.
Information you provide directly: When you contact us, apply to the BNDC cohort, register interest in a program, or submit a story or artwork, you may share your name, email address, phone number, organization details, and the contents of your message or application.
Information collected automatically: Like most websites, we may collect basic technical data such as browser type, device type, approximate location, and pages visited. This is used to understand how the site is used and to improve it.
To respond to your inquiries and process applications, memberships, and reservations.
To communicate with you about programs, events, and opportunities relevant to your interest.
To maintain records required to operate our programs and comply with our obligations as a nonprofit.
To understand how our website is used and to improve the experience for visitors.
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only as necessary to operate our programs, for example with the service providers that host our website and manage our constituent relationships, or when required by law.
Service providers are given access only to what is needed to perform their function and are expected to protect it under agreements consistent with this policy.
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purpose it was collected: to respond to an inquiry, run a program, or meet a legal or operational requirement. When it is no longer needed, we remove it or de-identify it.
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we hold. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we work to protect your information against unauthorized access, loss, and misuse.
You can choose not to share information with us, though some features, like applications and contact forms, require it to function.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, or to object to certain uses. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below.
Some of our programs serve middle and high school students. When we collect information from or about a minor, we do so with the involvement of a parent, guardian, or educator, and handle it with extra care.
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we'll revise the date below and, for significant changes, note them on this page.
