Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

The Good Shire Foundation collects information to provide better services to all our users, ranging from basic identity information required for event registration to financial information for processing donations and sponsorships. This includes:

• Identity Information: Name, email address, and authentication credentials securely managed via our identity provider (Clerk).
• Transaction Data: Details about donations, sponsorships, and tournament registrations. We do not store full credit card numbers or bank account details on our servers. All financial data is securely tokenized and handled by Stripe, PayPal, or Venmo.
• Event Logistics: Team names, participant metrics or skill levels (e.g., handicaps for golf), and related event communications.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect from our services to:

• Process charitable donations and issue tax receipts.
• Manage event registrations, sponsorships, and logistical planning.
• Communicate with you regarding our foundation's impact, upcoming events, and administrative updates (opt-out controls available in your portal).
• Ensure the security and integrity of our platform.

3. Data Sharing and Protection

We are committed to the security of your data. The Good Shire Foundation will never rent, sell, or trade your personal information to third parties. Information is only shared with trusted service providers necessary to operate the foundation (such as our payment processors or email delivery systems) under strict confidentiality agreements.

4. Your Privacy Rights

Through your Foundation Portal, you have the right to configure your communication preferences, toggle "Global Anonymity" to hide your name from public sponsor boards, and request full deletion of your identity footprint (subject to legal data retention requirements for tax receipts).
