The Flemish American Club respects the privacy of our members, guests and website visitors. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through our website, how we use it and the services we use to help manage that information.

Email address

Telephone number

Information included in your message or inquiry

Membership-related information you choose to provide

We ask that you do not submit sensitive financial, medical or other confidential personal information through our website forms.

GOOGLE SERVICES

The Flemish American Club uses Google services to operate portions of our website and communications.

Our contact forms use Google Forms. Information submitted through a form is processed through Google and may be stored using Google Workspace services such as Google Forms, Google Sheets or Google Drive.

Google’s handling of information through its services is also governed by Google’s applicable privacy policies and terms.

EMAIL NEWSLETTERS

The Flemish American Club uses Mailmeteor to distribute email newsletters and other Club communications.

When you subscribe to or receive these communications, information such as your name and email address may be used to personalize and deliver messages.

Mailmeteor may also process information associated with email campaigns, including delivery, opens, link clicks, replies, bounces and unsubscribe requests when those features are enabled.

We may use this information to understand whether our communications are useful and to improve future Club communications.

You may unsubscribe from marketing or newsletter emails using the unsubscribe option provided in those messages.

Mailmeteor maintains its own privacy and data-handling practices.

WEBSITE AND THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

Our website may contain links to Facebook, Google Maps, event information or other websites and online services.

When you follow a link to another website or use a third-party service, its own privacy policy and terms apply. The Flemish American Club is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites.

HOW WE PROTECT INFORMATION

We take reasonable steps to limit access to personal information to people who need it for legitimate Club purposes.

Because the Club uses third-party services such as Google and Mailmeteor, information may also be processed and stored by those providers according to their respective privacy and security practices.

HOW LONG WE KEEP INFORMATION

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, to maintain Club records or to meet applicable legal and administrative requirements.

Information that is no longer reasonably needed may be deleted.
