What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Membership
When you create a membership account on washingtonprintclub.org, you share your first name, last name, telephone number, and email and mailing addresses with us. We use this information to communicate with members.

For users who register on our website, we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

Newsletter and “On Paper”
Non-members who sign up for the newsletter or subscribe to “On Paper” supply their names, mailing address and email addresses. This information is used for dissemination of newsletters and other communications.

This information is retained for the period necessary to communicate with members and nonmembers.

Analytics and non-personally identifiable data

Cookies
Like most websites, WPC collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. WPC’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how visitors use our website.

Web browser cookies
We use first-party cookies (such as Google Analytics) on our website. A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. We use cookies to help us identify and track visitors, their usage of the WPC website, and their website access preferences. Cookies allow us to measure web statistics, such as the number of visitors to our site, the number of repeat users, and the most popular web pages. We do not use cookies to track a visitor’s activity on an individual basis. You may modify your browser settings to decline cookies (or to alert you when cookies are being sent). If you do so, note that some parts of the website might not function properly.

Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting
We have implemented and use Google Analytics code to gather third-party audience data (such as age, gender, and interest) for tracking and marketing efforts. Such code does not collect any personally identifiable information. You can opt out of this tracking by using the Google Ads Preference Manager: http://www.google.com/settings/ads/. You can also get the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Individual Cookie Settings
Internet browsers allow you to change your cookie settings. These settings are usually found in the Options or Preferences menu of your internet browser. In order to understand these settings, the following links may be helpful. Otherwise you should use the Help option in your internet browser for more details.

If you wish to withdraw your consent at any time, you will need to delete your cookies using your internet browser settings.

Embedded content from other websites
This site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

The inclusion of any link on this website does not imply endorsement by the Washington Print Club of that site.  Use of any such linked website is at the user’s own risk.

Links
Our website includes links to other organizations’ websites and to a payment portal. We do not control the use of personal information on websites other than our own.

PayPal uses a cookie to pass our information over to them when you click on a button to send us a payment. None of your financial data is captured on our site, all of it is submitted at the PayPal site. PayPal then shares your non-financial data so we know it was you who issued the payment to us. If you have cookies turned off, then our payment buttons may not work correctly.

Sharing your data
The Washington Print Club does not share personal data including names, addresses, email addresses, or telephone numbers with any third party. From time to time, the Washington Print Club may send out communications on behalf of certain of its members, such as galleries and museums. These communications are sent out by the Washington Print Club and your data is not shared with the third-party member.

What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Protecting your data
We will protect personal information by reasonable security safeguards against loss or theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification.

Other Provisions
The materials contained in the website, including images of artwork, are protected by applicable copyright and trademark law. You may not modify or copy the materials including, but not limited to, images of artwork. Use of the materials, including images of artwork, for any commercial purpose, or for any public display (commercial or non-commercial) is prohibited.

New technology will continue to be added to washingtonprintclub.org. Changes in the privacy policy will be reflected here as new technology is implemented.
