Privacy Policy

Last updated: [DATE]

This website is operated by [CLUB NAME], a local club of Kiwanis International, a volunteer service organization. We are a nonprofit and we are not in the business of selling, renting, or trading personal information. This policy explains what information this website collects, why, and the choices you have.

Who we are

[CLUB NAME] is an independent Kiwanis club. This site is hosted on the Kiwanis Club Sites platform provided by Kiwanis International, but the content and the handling of any information you submit are the responsibility of our club.

What we collect

Information you give us directly. If you fill out a form on this site, we collect what you choose to enter. Depending on the form, that may include your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, and any message or details you provide. Specifically:

  • Contact and membership-interest forms — your name, contact details, and your message or reason for reaching out.
  • Event registration and RSVPs — your name, contact details, and any event-specific details you provide (for example, number of guests or dietary notes).
  • Donations — if you make a donation through this site, your payment is handled by a third-party payment processor. We receive confirmation of your donation and the contact details you provide, but we do not collect or store your full payment-card number on this website.

Information collected automatically. Like most websites, this site collects basic technical and usage information through cookies and similar technologies — for example, your approximate location, browser type, the pages you visit, and how you arrived at the site. We use this only to understand general site traffic and keep the site working properly.

What we do not do

  • We do not sell or rent your personal information.
  • We do not share your information with third parties for their advertising.
  • We do not run advertising trackers, retargeting pixels, or cross-site behavioral advertising on this site.

How we use your information

We use the information you provide to:

  • respond to your inquiry or membership interest;
  • register you for events and communicate about them;
  • process and acknowledge donations;
  • understand general website usage so we can improve the site.

We keep personal information only as long as needed for these purposes or as required by law, then dispose of it.

Cookies and your choices

This site uses cookies for basic functionality and traffic measurement. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings; most browsers let you refuse cookies or alert you when one is set. Disabling cookies may affect how some parts of the site work. This site does not use cookies to build advertising profiles or to share your activity with advertisers.

Service providers

We rely on a small number of trusted service providers to operate this site — for example, our website hosting platform, our analytics provider, and (for donations) a payment processor. These providers handle information only as needed to perform their service and are not permitted to use it for their own purposes.

Children’s privacy

This site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we will delete it.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, such as the right to know what we hold about you, to request a copy, to correct it, or to ask us to delete it. To make a request, contact us using the information below and we will respond as required by applicable law.
