Effective 6/1/2019

Who we are

We are the 501(c)3 Nonprofit snowmobile club in Brainerd, MN. Our website address is: https://brainerdsnodeos.com.

What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Contact forms

If you submit any contact or personal information via a contact form, this information will be sent to a member of our team for follow-up. This information is only retained as long as necessary to answer your questions or follow up on your feedback.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

We do not do any business with the EU and therefore our policies are written for our home country, the United States of America.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Analytics

Our hosting provider (GoDaddy) collects anonymous statistics about visitors to our site such as what web browser you use, what operating system you use, and did you click a link to get to our site or did you type in the address. These anonymous statistics help to optimize our website so we can make the site look good on all devices and browsers.

Who we share your data with

Your information is only used by members of the Brainerd Snodeos for official activities and correspondence. We do not sell, market, advertize, or share any personal information provided to us. Furthermore, we think it’s pretty sad that we have to write that in a policy. That shouldn’t happen ever.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. This section will be updated with a specific policy for the spam detection provider we choose when or if we implement this service.

Your contact information

If you have any questions or feedback about our privacy policy, you can call +1-(218)-270-5067  or email [email protected]
