“How We Protect Our Students’ Privacy”

Upon receiving PACF funding, students at partner schools sign a consent waiver agreeing to have their name and photo used publicly, as part of accepting the scholarship.

Right now, PACF only publishes students’ first names, not last names. That’s a deliberate choice, not an oversight — we’d rather be conservative with identifying detail than risk exposing more than a student actually agreed to.

If a student hasn’t consented, or we’re not certain they have, we don’t name or picture them at all.
