This Privacy Policy explains how Greenville Memorial VFW Post 3175 (“the Post,” “we,” “us”) handles personal information through this Post website, event and volunteer inquiries, hall rental contacts, permitted communications and future Post-approved payment services. This is the local website for Post 3175, not the national VFW organization’s website.

Who operates this website and how to reach us

Organization: Greenville Memorial VFW Post 3175. Location: 1316 US-6, Port Jervis, New York 12771. Website: https://veteransofforeignwar.org. Privacy and data requests: Contact the Post or write to 1316 US-6, Port Jervis, New York 12771.

Information we may collect

Depending on what you choose to do, we may collect your name, email address, telephone number, inquiry content, event registration and attendance details, volunteer interests, hall rental requests, and records of consent or communication preferences. If approved payments are enabled, we may receive payment status, contribution or purchase amounts, and transaction references from the payment provider; the payment provider processes card and bank information under its own terms. Site and technology providers may also collect browser, device, IP address, approximate location, cookie and site-usage information needed for security, operation, analytics and permitted advertising.

Why we use this information

We use personal information to answer requests, administer event registrations, coordinate volunteer opportunities, communicate about requested rentals or activities, provide important operational notices, process approved transactions, keep necessary records, improve the site, protect against fraud and comply with legal obligations. Promotional email or SMS will be sent only where the relevant consent and legal requirements permit it.

SMS and mobile-consent privacy

SMS registration is optional and separate from giving your phone number, submitting an inquiry or purchasing tickets. Where the Post offers an SMS opt-in, operational/informational messages and marketing messages require separate, unchecked choices. We do not treat an unmarked checkbox, prior inquiry or payment as permission for promotional text messages.

No mobile information will be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. Service providers acting on the Post’s instructions may process contact information only as needed to provide messaging or other support services. We do not disclose text-message opt-in records or consent choices to unrelated organizations for their use. For SMS assistance, reply HELP when texting is active; to stop Post automated texts, reply STOP. See our SMS Messaging Terms.

Service providers and disclosures

We may provide limited information to companies that host or help operate the site, customer relationship and scheduling tools, messaging services, approved ticket sellers, payment processors, analytics providers and security services, subject to their applicable arrangements and the purposes described here. The site uses Shopify; some forms, event scheduling or future payments may use HighLevel and its integrated providers. External event sellers are separately responsible for their own checkout and privacy practices. We may disclose data when required by law or needed to protect users and the Post. We do not authorize third parties to reuse SMS consent for their independent promotions.

Cookies, analytics and privacy choices

The website or its providers may use cookies and similar tools for site operation, security, analytics, customer preferences and, when enabled and permitted, advertising. Visitor options can depend on location and applicable law. See Your Privacy Choices and available cookie settings. The Post will honor valid rights requests applicable under relevant privacy laws.

Retention and security

Records are kept for as long as reasonably needed for the purpose collected, valid recordkeeping, legal obligations, disputes and security. We seek to limit access to authorized people and relevant service providers, but no online system is risk-free. Never send a DD-214, Social Security number, payment-card information, bank credentials, medical records or other sensitive identity documents through a general inquiry form. Secure membership-document intake is not yet available through this public website.

Your choices and privacy requests

You may request information about your personal data, corrections, or deletion where applicable by Contact the Post or write to 1316 US-6, Port Jervis, New York 12771. You may stop marketing emails using their unsubscribe instructions. You may withdraw SMS consent by replying STOP to a Post-controlled texting number once SMS service is enabled. Requests may require reasonable identity verification.

Children and third-party destinations

The website is not designed to knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Links to third-party event sellers, payment processors or official eligibility resources may take you to separately operated websites with their own practices. This Post cannot govern those independent websites.

Updates

We may change this policy as systems, services and legal requirements change. The effective date above identifies the version displayed. Material changes will be reflected on this page.
