Action Long Island Corp (“Action Long Island,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a nonpartisan not-for-profit organization exempt under section 501(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through our websites at actionli.org and actionlongisland.org (together, the “Site”), how we use and share it, and the choices and rights you have. We are committed to handling your information responsibly and collecting only what we need to advance our mission.

By using the Site, you agree to the practices described in this Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

Information We Collect

Information you provide to us

We collect the information you choose to give us, including when you contact us, sign up for updates, become a member, register for or attend an event, or make a donation. This may include your name, email address, mailing address, telephone number, employer or organization, and any message or details you submit through a form.

Donation information

Donations are processed by PayPal, our third-party payment processor. When you donate, you provide your payment details directly to PayPal under its own terms and privacy policy. We do not collect, see, or store your full payment card or bank account numbers. We receive only confirmation of your donation and the contact information needed to acknowledge it and meet our recordkeeping obligations.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, our Site may automatically collect certain technical information when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages viewed, and the dates and times of your visits. We use this information to operate, secure, and improve the Site.

Cookies & Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies that are strictly necessary for the Site to function (for example, to maintain your session and remember your preferences). [PLACEHOLDER — if and when analytics or marketing tools are added, disclose them here: e.g., “We also use analytics cookies to understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it. Where required, we will request your consent before setting non-essential cookies.”] You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling essential cookies may affect how the Site works.

• To respond to your inquiries and provide the information or services you request;
• To process and acknowledge donations and maintain required financial and tax records;
• To manage memberships, task forces, and event registration and attendance;
• To send newsletters, updates, and other communications you have asked to receive;

Legal Bases for Processing (EU/UK Visitors)

If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we process your personal data on the following legal bases: your consent (which you may withdraw at any time); our legitimate interests in operating and promoting our mission in a way that does not override your rights; performance of a contract or steps taken at your request; and compliance with legal obligations.

How We Share Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information. We share it only as described below:

• Trusted service providers. We use carefully selected third-party providers to help us operate the Site, host our data, send communications, manage events and memberships, and process donations (including PayPal for payments). These providers may access personal information only to perform services on our behalf and are obligated to protect it.
• Legal and safety reasons. We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, or other legal process, or where we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
• Organizational changes. If Action Long Island merges with or transfers its operations to another organization, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to this Policy.
• With your direction. We share information publicly or with others when you ask us to.

International Data Transfers

We are based in the United States, and the information we collect is processed and stored in the United States. If you access the Site from outside the United States, you understand that your information may be transferred to and processed in a country whose data-protection laws may differ from those of your country. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for such transfers.

Data Retention

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this Policy, to maintain required donation and tax records, to resolve disputes, and to comply with our legal obligations. When information is no longer needed, we delete or anonymize it.

Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
