WEBSITE PRIVACY POLICY

Native Finance Development Corporation

dba Native Catalyst

Last updated: August 28, 2026

CHILDREN'S PRIVACY

We recognize the need to provide additional privacy protection for children. To inquire about or register for a Native Catalyst™ program, you must be a parent or guardian, teacher, or authorized school official.

 

We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under the age of 13. Our enrollment inquiry forms include a required confirmation in which the submitting adult confirms they are a parent or guardian completing the form on behalf of a student — not the student themselves. If you are under 13, stop and have your parent, guardian, or teacher continue.

 

If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13 without verified parental consent, we will take steps to delete that information promptly.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We collect personal information, depending on which form:

 

Through the Contact Form:

  • First and last name

  • Email address

  • Phone number (optional)

  • Organization name (optional)

  • Purpose of inquiry

Through the TPF+7G™ Individual Enrollment Inquiry Form:

  • Parent or guardian name

  • Email address

  • Phone number (optional)

We collect geolocation information, browser information, customer IP address (this is the Internet Protocol address, the unique identifying number assigned to every device connected to the internet), browser type, pages visited, session duration, and general usage patterns.

HOW WE USE YOUR DATA

We store the information submitted via website forms or direct contact for internal relationship and program management and do not share your information with other parties, except to fulfil the program or service request. We use non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our website.

WEB BEACONS AND TRACKING PIXELS

We use web beacons and tracking pixels. These are tiny, often invisible, pieces of code or transparent images embedded in a webpage or email to collect data about user activity, like whether a message was opened or a page was viewed. They track behavior for analytics, advertising, and campaign measurement. When loaded, they send data
(IP address, browser, time) about the website visitor to a server, providing insights into user engagement without storing data directly on the device like a cookie. When you visit our site, they are installed on your phone or computer.

 

Tracking pixels are shared with Google Analytics to improve visitor’s experience and operation of our website.
 

Web beacons and tracking pixels continue to operate even after you have left our website.

COOKIES

A cookie is a small amount of data which often includes an anonymous unique identifier that is sent to your browser from a website’s computers and stored on your computer or phone. We use cookies to record current session information, but do not use permanent cookies. We allow third parties to place cookies on visitors to the website. Cookies are essential to the operation of the website. Cookies continue to operate even after you have left our website.

INFORMATION SHARING

The following information is shared with third parties: geolocation information, browser information, web beacons, tracking pixels and IP address (this is the Internet Protocol address, the unique identifying number assigned to every device connected to the internet). 

 

We may also disclose information to third parties if that disclosure is reasonably necessary to detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security, or technical issues. If there is a reorganization, merger, or sale, we may transfer the information we collect to third parties.

INFORMATION RETENTION

The information that you provide is kept for five years.
