How St. John Paul the Great Catholic High School in Denver, Colorado collects, uses and protects the information you share through our website, email and text messages.
Effective date: November 5, 2026
1. Who we are
This policy covers jpgdenver.org and the emails and text messages we send. "JPG," "we," "us" and "our" mean St. John Paul the Great Catholic High School (legally registered as Central Denver Classical High School, EIN 87-1489254), an independent Catholic high school and 501(c)(3) nonprofit at 2330 S. Sherman St., Denver, CO 80210. It covers website visitors, people who fill out our forms, donors and prospective donors, and people who opt in to our text messages. It does not cover student records, which are handled under the school's own enrollment policies.
2. Information you give us
We collect the information you choose to share when you fill out a form on our website, such as when you inquire about admission, book a visit or shadow day, start an application, make a tax-credit commitment, register for an event, sign up for updates, buy from our online store, or contact us. Depending on the form, this can include:
- your name, email address, phone number and mailing address
- your relationship to the school (for example, parent, alum or donor)
- for admission forms, a parent's or guardian's details and the student's grade, intended year of entry and current school
- the details of your commitment, gift or inquiry, how you heard about JPG, and anything you write in a message
Admission forms ask for a parent's or guardian's contact details, not a student's. We don't ask students for their own email address or phone number through our website.
3. Information we receive from others
Tax-credit contributions are made to ACE Scholarships, not to JPG. When you complete a contribution on ACE's website and designate it to JPG, ACE sends us your name, contact details and the details of your contribution so we can match it to your commitment and thank you. We treat that information under this policy. Our donor-management system (Virtuous) likewise sends us the records of gifts made to JPG.
4. How we use it
We use your information to:
- answer your questions and follow up on your inquiry, visit or application
- fill and ship orders from our online store
- run admission, events and giving, including recording tax-credit commitments and matching them to contributions
- send receipts and acknowledgments, and keep the records the law requires for gifts
- send you emails, and, if you opted in, text messages (see section 7)
- understand how our website, emails and ads perform so we can improve them
- meet our legal and tax-exempt reporting obligations
5. Cookies and tracking technologies
When you visit jpgdenver.org, we and the providers below set cookies, pixels and similar technologies. They collect your browser and device type, IP address and approximate location, the pages you visit, the site that sent you, and how you interact with our pages, forms, emails and ads.
| Provider | What it does for us | Its privacy policy |
|---|---|---|
| HubSpot | Website analytics, form and email tracking, the cookie banner | HubSpot |
| Google Analytics | Website analytics | |
| Meta (Facebook and Instagram) | Measuring our ads, and showing JPG ads to people who have visited this site (retargeting) | Meta |
| Vimeo and YouTube | Embedded video | Vimeo, Google |
We may also use advertising tools from Google Ads, TikTok, X and LinkedIn to measure our ads and show JPG ads to people who have visited this site. Some forms use Google reCAPTCHA to stop spam; Google's privacy policy and terms apply to it.
These providers may use what they collect for their own purposes, including advertising on other sites, under their own policies. Browsing data collected through these tools is separate from the text-message consent data described in sections 6 and 7, which is never shared with them.
Your choices. When you first visit, a banner asks whether you accept cookies; if you decline, we don't set analytics or advertising cookies. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time. To opt out of personalized ads, use Google Ads Settings, Meta Ad Preferences and the ad settings in your TikTok, X and LinkedIn accounts. Colorado residents may opt out of targeted advertising by these methods or by contacting us (section 12).
6. Who we share it with
We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information. We share it only:
- with the service providers that run our systems for us and may use it only for that purpose. These include HubSpot (website, forms, email and text messages), Virtuous (donor management and online giving), FACTS (applications and enrollment), Shopify (our online store, which processes store orders and payments) and our payment processors.
- when the law requires it, or to protect the safety of our students, staff and families.
ACE Scholarships. Tax-credit contributions are made to ACE Scholarships, not to JPG. When you are ready to complete a commitment, we link you to ACE's website. Anything you enter there is collected by ACE under ACE's own privacy policy, not this one. JPG does not send your information to ACE. When you designate a contribution to JPG, ACE sends us your contact and contribution details, as described in section 3.
All the above categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties, excluding aggregators and providers of the Text Message services. This includes phone numbers collected for SMS. The only text-message provider we use is HubSpot, which uses your number solely to send messages on our behalf.
7. Text messages (SMS)
St. John Paul the Great Catholic High School (JPG) sends text messages only to numbers that have opted in by checking the text-message box on one of our forms. Consent is not a condition of any donation, purchase or admission. Messages cover admission events, the tax-credit program, school news and ways to support JPG. Msg frequency varies. Msg & data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out. Reply HELP for help, or contact us at info@jpgdenver.org or (720) 881-0395.
When you opt in, we record your mobile number, the date and time, and the form you used, and we keep that record as proof of consent for as long as you are opted in and for a reasonable period afterward. No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for their marketing or promotional purposes. Full program terms are in our SMS Terms.
8. Email
You can unsubscribe from our emails at any time using the link at the bottom of any email. We may still send messages you need about something you've started with us, such as an application, a gift receipt, a commitment or an event registration.
9. Children's privacy
Our website is meant for parents, families, donors and other adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it. Student records are handled under the school's own policies, not this website policy.
10. Your choices
You can ask us to show you, correct or delete the personal information we hold about you, or to stop contacting you. Email info@jpgdenver.org or call (720) 881-0395. We may need to keep some records, such as gift receipts and commitment records, where the law or an audit requires.
11. How we protect it
We use reputable service providers, encrypted connections and access controls, and we limit access to the people at JPG who need it for their work. No system is perfectly secure, so please don't send sensitive information, such as financial account numbers, through our general forms. We keep donor and commitment records for as long as needed to fulfill the gift and meet tax and audit requirements; website analytics data is kept according to each provider's retention settings.
12. Changes and contact
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we'll post the new version here with a new effective date.
