YouthBuild Global, Inc. is a non-profit, charitable organization (“YouthBuild” or “we” “our” “us”) committed to protecting the privacy of visitors to our website and the community that we serve.
YouthBuild is a national and international program implementing and assisting a broad network of local YouthBuild programs across the United States and in other countries throughout the world (“YouthBuild Programs”). YouthBuild assists local YouthBuild Programs through providing funding, staff training, on-site technical assistance, publications, quality assurance systems, reflection on best practices, peer support, innovation, and relevant research on impact. A subset of the YouthBuild Programs are supported by grants received from the US Department of Labor (“DOL/YouthBuild Programs”). Any websites accessed through any local YouthBuild Program will be subject to that Program’s own privacy policies. However, YouthBuild will comply with this Privacy Policy for any information that YouthBuild receives from any YouthBuild Program, including from any DOL/YouthBuild Program.
