07SMS privacy
When you opt in to text messages, we collect your mobile number, consent record, and message activity to provide the program. We do not sell, rent, or share your mobile number or SMS consent with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes. We may share this information with messaging vendors solely to deliver and support our messages.
Reply STOP to unsubscribe or HELP for help. Opting out of marketing texts does not prevent necessary non-marketing communications where permitted by law.
08Data retention
We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including providing services, maintaining records, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, and meeting legal obligations. Retention periods vary by the type of information and applicable requirements.
09Information security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information. No website, transmission, or storage system is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. Please use a strong, unique password and notify us if you believe your account or information has been compromised.
10Your choices and privacy rights
You may unsubscribe from marketing email through the link in the message and from marketing texts by replying STOP. You may also contact us at info@foothillcatalog.org to request access, correction, deletion, or a copy of personal information, or to appeal a denied request. We will verify and respond to requests as required by applicable law.
Depending on where you live, including California, you may have rights to know, access, correct, delete, or obtain a portable copy of personal information and to opt out of certain targeted advertising, sales, or profiling. We will not discriminate against you for exercising a privacy right.
11U.S. state privacy notice
Some state laws define certain analytics or advertising disclosures as a "sale" or "sharing" even when no money is exchanged. If those laws apply, you may request to opt out by contacting us. We do not knowingly sell personal information for money. We will process authorized-agent requests and recognized opt-out signals where legally required.
12Children's privacy
The Services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided information to us, contact us so we can take appropriate action.
13Third-party services and links
The Services may link to third-party websites or use third-party services, including payment, analytics, account, or communications providers. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies. We encourage you to review those policies before providing information.
14Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices, technology, services, or legal obligations. We will post the revised version and update the date above. When required, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent.
