Privacy Policy

Introduction

1791 Club (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the 1791club.com website and related services (the “Service”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our Service.

Information We Collect

Account Information

When you create an account, we collect your email address and password. If you sign up via a social login provider (Google, Microsoft, or Facebook), we receive your name and email address from that provider.

Club & Membership Data

Club administrators enter club details, member profiles, contact information, and membership records. Members may provide address, phone, date of birth, emergency contacts, and identification photos as part of their profile.

Usage Data

We collect standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages visited, timestamps). We use Plausible Analytics, a privacy-focused analytics tool that does not use cookies or collect personal data.

Payment Information

Payment processing is handled by Stripe. We never store full credit card numbers on our servers. Stripe’s privacy policy governs their handling of payment data.

How We Use Your Information

• To provide, maintain, and improve the Service
• To process transactions and send related information (receipts, invoices)
• To send administrative messages (account verification, security alerts, support)
• To respond to your inquiries and support requests
• To detect, prevent, and address technical issues and abuse

Information Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only:

• With your club’s administrators, as necessary for club management
• With service providers who assist in operating the Service (hosting, email, payment processing)
• When required by law, regulation, or legal process
• To protect the rights, safety, or property of 1791 Club, our users, or the public

Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures including encryption in transit (TLS), secure password hashing, and access controls. Sensitive documents and identification photos are stored in private, access-controlled cloud storage.

Data Retention & Deletion

You may request export or deletion of your personal data at any time through the Service or by contacting us. We retain compliance-critical records (signed waivers, incident reports) with minimized personal data as required by law. Account deletion requests are processed within 30 days.

Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or export your personal data. California residents have additional rights under the CCPA. To exercise these rights, contact us at the address below.

Children’s Privacy

The Service is not directed at children under 13. Minor members (under 18) must have parental consent managed through the household feature.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the effective date. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
