Effective Date: August 7, 2026
Cebuana Lhuillier Foundation, Inc. (“CLFI,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of everyone who visits or interacts with our website (cebuanafoundation.org), in accordance with Republic Act No. 10173, or the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (“DPA”), and its implementing rules and regulations.
This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the rights you have regarding your personal data.
a. Information you provide directly. When you use our contact forms, submit a scholarship or program application, or otherwise reach out to us through the website, we may collect information such as your name, email address, mobile number, home address, and the content of your message or application. Where a form is intended for a parent or guardian applying on behalf of a minor (e.g., a scholarship applicant), we also collect the relevant information about the child, submitted with the parent's or guardian's consent.
b. Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site. This automatically collects non-identifying, aggregated information such as pages viewed, approximate location (derived from IP address, at the city/country level), device and browser type, and how you arrived at our site. This data helps us improve site content, performance, and user experience — it is not used to identify individual visitors.
Some of our programs, such as scholarship applications, may require information about minors. Such information is collected only with the consent of, and submitted by, the minor's parent or legal guardian. We handle this information with particular care, consistent with our Safeguarding Policy and Code of Conduct, and we do not knowingly collect information directly from children without appropriate parental or guardian involvement.
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may share information collected through this website with:
We implement reasonable and appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data collected through our website against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law, after which it is securely disposed of or anonymized.
Subject to the requirements and exceptions under the DPA, you have the right to:
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details in Section 9 below.

Disabling cookies may affect certain features of the website but will not prevent you from accessing our content.
