Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 21, 2025

This Privacy Policy describes how La Vie en Rose Internationale (“LVR Luxury”) and Second Light Foundation (“SLF”) (collectively “we,” “our,” or “us”) collect, use, and protect personal information through our websites, including lavieenroseinternationale.com and related subdomains (collectively, the “Site”).

1. Information We Collect

We collect personal information you voluntarily provide when interacting with our Site, including:

  • Contact information — name, email, phone number, or mailing address.
  • Donation or payment information — amounts, billing details, and transaction identifiers processed by third-party payment platforms.
  • Form submissions — details provided on retreat inquiries, scholarship applications, or memorial submissions.
  • Technical data — IP address, browser type, device data, and pages visited (via analytics tools).

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Process donations, sponsorships, or retreat payments;
  • Respond to inquiries, scholarship applications, and requests for information;
  • Communicate updates, newsletters, and event announcements (if you opt-in);
  • Improve our Site’s functionality and user experience;
  • Comply with legal obligations and ensure the integrity of our operations.

3. Legal Basis for Processing

Where required by law, we process your personal data on one or more of the following bases:

  • Your consent (e.g., when subscribing to updates or submitting forms);
  • Performance of a contract (e.g., when fulfilling a donation or retreat registration);
  • Legal obligations (e.g., tax or compliance reporting);
  • Legitimate interests (e.g., maintaining security and improving our Site).

4. Donation and Payment Information

We use secure third-party processors (such as Square, Stripe, or equivalent services) to handle all financial transactions. We do not store or have direct access to your full payment card information.

Important: Second Light Foundation is currently applying for 501(c)(3) recognition. Donations are not tax-deductible at this time. If charitable status is approved, eligible donations may be deductible retroactively under IRS rules.

5. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may share limited information with:

  • Vendors and service providers who help us operate the Site or process donations (bound by confidentiality agreements);
  • Regulatory or government authorities where required by law;
  • Affiliated entities — La Vie en Rose Internationale and Second Light Foundation — for aligned operational purposes.

6. Cookies and Analytics

Our Site may use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to understand visitor behavior and improve functionality. You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences. Some features may not function properly if cookies are disabled.

7. Data Retention

We retain your information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.

8. Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. However, no online system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

  • Access, correct, or delete your personal information;
  • Withdraw consent for communications at any time;
  • Request a copy of the data we hold about you;
  • Lodge a complaint with a data-protection authority if you believe your rights were violated.

To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected].

Our Site is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If you believe a child has provided personal data to us, please contact us for deletion.

11. International Users

Our Site is operated in the United States. By using the Site from outside the U.S., you consent to the transfer and processing of your data under U.S. law.

12. Changes to This Policy
