Privacy Policy

The Sagamore Hills Civic Association (SHCA) respects the privacy of our members, residents, event participants, donors, and others who interact with our organization. This policy explains how SHCA collects, uses, and protects personal information provided through our website and association activities.

Information We Collect

SHCA may collect information that you voluntarily provide when you join or renew your membership, register for an event, make a donation or other payment, subscribe to communications, or contact the association. This may include your name, address, email address, telephone number, membership information, event registrations, and payment or transaction information.

How We Use Your Information

SHCA uses personal information to administer memberships, communicate association and neighborhood information, manage events and activities, process payments and donations, maintain association records, and otherwise conduct SHCA business.

SHCA does not sell or rent personal information or provide it to others for unrelated marketing purposes.

Member Information and Privacy

Certain information may be available to logged-in SHCA members through member-only areas of the website. Members can control the visibility of certain information through their profile privacy settings.

Information obtained from member-only areas may not be copied, distributed, published, or used for commercial, solicitation, or other unauthorized purposes. Members are responsible for protecting their login information and respecting the privacy of other members.

Events and Registrations

When registering for an SHCA event, participants may be given options regarding whether their name appears on a public or member-visible registration list, when that feature is available.

Information collected through event registration may be used to administer the event and communicate with participants.

Payments

SHCA does not directly store full credit or debit card numbers. Electronic payments are processed through third-party payment processors. Those providers handle payment information according to their own security and privacy practices.

Service Providers

SHCA may use third-party service providers to operate its website, process payments, distribute communications, manage events, or provide other services necessary to association operations. Information may be provided to these services as reasonably necessary to perform those functions.

SHCA does not authorize these providers to use personal information for unrelated purposes.

Email Communications

SHCA may use contact information provided by members and other participants to send association news, neighborhood information, event announcements, membership communications, and other SHCA-related messages. Recipients may use the unsubscribe options provided in applicable emails or contact SHCA with questions about their communication preferences.

Protecting Your Information

SHCA takes reasonable steps to protect personal information and limits access to information to those who need it for association purposes. However, no website, electronic communication, or information system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Changes to This Policy

SHCA may update this Privacy Policy as its website, services, or practices change.
