Spanish is a gendered language and it uses the masculine as general "todos aquí presentes" instead of saying "todos y todas".
Another example "Somos amigos" "we are friends" Wich I use to refer to male, female and non binary friends.
A good way to address a non binary person in Spanish is by the name and the use of "usted" or "tu" which translates to "you".
Spanish it's a complex language and it can include non binary people just as fine.
"Persona no binaria" which uses the femenine, but it can be used with everyone.
