Fundación para la Conservación del Medio Ambiente y la Protección de las Fuentes Hídricas Mediante el Compromiso de Todos Tangaré (“Fundación Tangaré”), RUC 1792190967001, Recinto La Esperie, Principal s/n, Manuel Cornejo Astorga, Ecuador. Contact: contact@tangarefoundation.org.

Forms: when you send a contact message or an application, we receive the details you enter (name, email, country, organization, dates, your message and any link you include).

Visits: we use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which counts page views without cookies and without building a profile of you. We use Google Analytics to measure which pages and campaigns lead people to write to us, apply or donate. We use Microsoft Clarity to see, in aggregate, how pages are used (heatmaps and anonymized session replays). Everything typed into forms is hidden from Clarity. Visitors in Europe are asked first, and none of these tools load unless they accept. Elsewhere they load by default, and anyone can switch them off with the “Cookie settings” link at the bottom of every page.

Where a visit came from: if you arrive from an ad or a link with campaign tags, the site remembers that source until you close the browser tab, and adds it to any form you send, so we know which campaigns work.

Donations: payments are processed by PayPal. We receive the donor’s name, email and amount from PayPal, never card details.

To answer your message or process your application, to manage your stay if you take part in a program, to acknowledge donations and to understand in aggregate how the site is used.

If you apply to a program that takes place at La Hesperia reserve, we share your application with the reserve in order to organize your stay. We do not sell personal data.

Our service providers process data on our behalf: Cloudflare (hosting and security), Resend (delivery of form messages), Google Workspace (email), Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, and PayPal (donations).

We keep messages and applications only as long as needed for the purpose you sent them for, and delete them when they are no longer needed.

You can ask to access, correct or delete your data, or object to its use, by writing to contact@tangarefoundation.org. This applies under Ecuador’s Organic Law on Personal Data Protection and, where relevant, the EU General Data Protection Regulation.

Google Analytics sets cookies (named _ga) to tell visits apart. Microsoft Clarity sets cookies (named _clck and _clsk) to group the pages of one visit. They are set only with your consent where consent is required. The site also stores your cookie choice and the source of your visit in your browser. You can change your choice at any time with the “Cookie settings” link at the bottom of every page.
