We do not control those sites or their privacy practices, which may differ from ours. We do not endorse or make any representations about third-party websites. The personal data you choose to give to unrelated third parties is not covered by this privacy statement.

Types of information we collect

This Privacy Statement covers personal information, non-personal data collection and aggregate reporting.

Personal information is information that is associated with your name or personal identity. PotentialPlace.org uses personal information to better understand your needs and interests and to provide you with better service. Once you choose to provide us with personal information, you can be assured it will be used only to support your  relationship with us. We take seriously the trust you place in us and we will not sell, rent, or lease your personal information to others.

On some pages and links on our site you can request information, and subscribe to marketing materials. The types of personal information you provide to us on these pages may include your name, address, phone number, e-mail address, user IDs and passwords, and contact preferences.

Non-personal information is data about usage and service operation that is not associated with a specific personal identity. We collect and analyze non-personal information to evaluate how visitors use our website.

Non-personal data we collect may include the pages visited on this website, unique URLs visited within our website, browser type, and IP address. Most non-personal data is collected via cookies or other analysis technologies.

Children’s privacy

We are committed to protecting the privacy needs of children and we encourage parents and guardians to take an active role in their children’s online activities and interests. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under the age of 18 and this website does not target children.

How we use your information

We will use your personal information to provide you with services and to help us better understand your needs and interests. Specifically, we use your information to help you complete a transaction, to communicate with you, to provide service and support, to update you on services and benefits, and to customize or personalize our website.

Occasionally we may also use your information to contact you about events or activities taking place at Potential Place. We will give you the opportunity to choose your privacy preferences regarding such communications. You may, at any point, contact us to request an opt-out on future communication. 

Personal data collected online may also be combined with information you provide through other sources such as event registration or online inquiries.

Non-personal data is aggregated for reporting about the usability of this website, performance, and effectiveness. It is used to improve the client and members experience, usability, and site content.

Who we share your information with

We will not sell, rent, or lease your personal information to others. We will not share your personal information with third parties except in responding to your requests for services. Your permission will be requested when you submit your information. We may share information across entities and organizations working on our behalf, but only as required to meet your service requirements.

We may occasionally contract with third-party service providers and suppliers to deliver services and solutions. Suppliers and service providers are required to keep confidential the information received on behalf of us, and they may not use it for any purpose other than to carry out the services they are performing on our behalf. These service providers may change or we may contract with additional service providers to better accommodate our members. We will not share personal information with any other third parties without your permission, unless required by law enforcement action, subpoena, or local law.

Your choices

Our site allows you the choice of receiving a variety of information that complements our services. You can subscribe to receive certain information (for example, the Challenger Newsletter), which may include service or support information, special events, or an invitation to participate in research. We give you a choice regarding delivery of our agency-wide communications by postal mail, e-mail and telephone. You can make or change your choices at the data collection point. We will make every effort to honour your preferences. This option does not apply to communications for the purpose of administering the operations of Potential Place.

Your information and third-party organizations

Some of our services are linked with those from unrelated third-party organizations, some which offer you the option to share with our company as well as the third-party personal data you provide. We will not share your personal information with those third-party organizations unless you make that choice.

Access to and accuracy of your information

We strive to keep your personal information accurate. We have implemented technology, management processes and policies to maintain member and client data accuracy. We will provide you with access to your information, including making reasonable effort to provide you with online access and the opportunity to change your information. To protect your privacy and security, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity, such as a password and user ID, before granting access to your data. Certain areas of our websites may limit access to specific individuals through the use of passwords and other personal identifiers.

Keeping your information secure

We are committed to protecting the information you provide us. To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, to maintain data accuracy, and to ensure the appropriate use of the information, we have in place appropriate physical and managerial procedures to safeguard the information we collect.

We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption when collecting or transferring sensitive data. SSL encryption is designed to make the information unreadable by anyone but us. This security measure is working when you see either the symbol of an unbroken key or closed lock (depending on your browser) on the bottom of your browser window.

We value your opinions. If you have comments or questions about our privacy policy, please email us at: clubmail@potentialplace.org or call us at: 403-216-9250
