Salvadorans.org respects the privacy of its visitors. This policy explains what information may be processed when someone uses the website, how third-party services may be involved, and what choices may be available regarding certain technologies used on the site.
Salvadorans.org is an independent informational website. It is not part of the Government of El Salvador, the Government of the United States, an embassy, a consulate, or any other government institution.
Information That May Be Collected
Reading our articles does not require visitors to voluntarily provide information such as a DUI number, passport number, Social Security number, or copies of personal documents. We do not recommend sending this type of information to us by email.
As with most websites, the server and technical services used by Salvadorans.org may automatically process certain information when a page is visited. This may include an IP address, browser type, operating system, device information, pages viewed, access date and time, referring page, and technical data needed to operate the website, detect misuse, or troubleshoot errors.
If someone voluntarily contacts us by email, we may receive the email address used, the contents of the message, and any information the sender chooses to include. This information is generally used to review and respond to the communication.
Google AdSense and Advertising
Salvadorans.org may use Google AdSense to display advertising. As a result of the integration of Google advertising services, Google and other authorized providers may process information related to visits to this website.
Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve, limit, measure, or personalize advertisements. Depending on the applicable settings and the choices made by the user, these technologies may take into account visits to this website or other websites. IP addresses, browser information, identifiers, and similar technologies may also be used in connection with advertising delivery and measurement.
Google provides additional information about how it uses data from websites and apps that use its services at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
Users can review and manage certain advertising personalization preferences through Google Ads Settings.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Salvadorans.org and its technology providers may use cookies, local storage, pixels, or similar technologies to remember settings, support technical functions, measure site usage, prevent fraud, or deliver advertising.
Not all cookies serve the same purpose. Some may be necessary for technical operation, while others may relate to advertising, measurement, or user preferences. Additional information is available in our Cookie Policy.
Consent and Certain Regions
Where applicable laws or service policies require consent before certain technologies are used, visitors may be shown a privacy notice or consent management interface that allows them to manage their choices.
Google has specific consent requirements for certain advertising services involving visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland. Where those requirements apply, consent should be managed using mechanisms and tools accepted by Google and applicable law.
Links to External Websites
Our articles frequently link to public agencies and other external websites, including pages operated by Salvadoran government institutions, the RNPN, consulates, U.S. government agencies, and other organizations responsible for procedures discussed on Salvadorans.org.
A link does not mean that Salvadorans.org controls the external website. Each third-party service maintains its own privacy, security, cookie, and data-processing practices. We recommend reviewing those policies before providing personal information or making a payment.
Security and Sensitive Information
We try to limit the personal information we receive directly and use reasonable measures to protect the systems that operate the website. However, no method of transmission or storage connected to the Internet can guarantee absolute security.
Do not email copies of passports, DUI cards, birth certificates, full document numbers, banking information, passwords, or other sensitive information. Salvadorans.org does not need these documents in order to explain a procedure published on the website.
Children’s Privacy
Some content may be used by parents and families completing procedures involving children, but Salvadorans.org is not designed as a service specifically directed to children and does not intentionally seek to collect personal information from minors.
Changes to This Policy
This policy may be updated when website features, service providers, advertising requirements, or applicable rules change. The date shown at the beginning of the page reflects the most recent published revision.
