Privacy Policy
Last updated November 2021.
We take our responsibility to safeguard your personal information very seriously. This privacy notice discloses the privacy practices for Santa Clara Valley Quilt Association (SCVQA).
Information Collection, Use, and Sharing
SCVQA uses a service called Wild Apricot to host its website and administer its membership information. Only members can access this website. In order to use this website, a user must first complete the registration form. During registration a user is required to give certain information (such as name and email address).
SCVQA is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. We only have access to/collect information that you voluntarily give us via email or other direct contact from you. We will not sell or rent this information to anyone. We will not share your information with any third party outside of our organization, other than as necessary to fulfill your request, e.g. to process credit cards.
This information is used to contact you about the guild activities and other business on our site in which you have expressed interest, such as meetings, workshops, and retreats. You have the option to provide demographic information or ideas for how you can help the guild, but it is not required.
We may contact you via email in the future to tell you about guild activities, membership benefits, special events, or changes to this privacy policy.
Your Access to and Control Over Information
You may opt out of any future contacts from us at any time. You can also modify the personal information we have collected from you at any time by editing your personal profile or contacting us via email.
Member Directory
Member directory is made available only for SCVQA members and is visible after an active member has logged into the membership website. The public does not have access to the directory. The directory may not be sold or used by anyone else for any purpose, including personal philanthropic, fundraising, or business purposes.
Workshops/Events
We request information from you on our registration form. To register for workshops with us, you must provide contact information (like name, phone, email and address) and financial information (like credit card number, expiration date). This information is used for billing purposes and to complete your registration. If we have trouble processing an order, we'll use this information to contact you.
Cookies
We use "cookies" on this site. A cookie is a piece of data stored on a site visitor's hard drive to help us improve your access to our site and identify repeat visitors to our site. Cookies can also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information on our site. You can learn more about what cookies Wild Apricot uses here.
Payments
We use a third party, AffiniPay, to process credit card payments for membership fees, workshops, and other services. These companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes beyond filling your order.
Security
We have implemented a variety of security measures, including access controls, to limit which board members and administrators can see your information. We use Wild Apricot's membership software to maintain our website and run our events. Wild Apricot uses industry standards to provide information security - more information can be reviewed here.
