Information You Provide Directly:

BGCCNNH collects information in several ways from different parts of this site. BGCCNNH may collect personal information from you when you register with this site or sign up for a program (Alumni & Friends, etc.), initiative, or event. BGCCNNH also may ask you for personal information at other times, such as when you ask a question, submit a comment, or report a problem with this site. If you contact BGCCNNH, BGCCNNH may keep a record of that session or correspondence, including a record of your e-mail address. BGCCNNH may also occasionally ask users to complete surveys for research purposes. There also may be services on this site that require you to fill out an online form or send BGCCNNH an e-mail message in order to utilize these services. BGCCNNH collects any information that you provide in such circumstances, including any personal information.

We may also ask you for identifying and personal information to:

• Inform you of new services, changes or promotions, directly or via a third-party advertising or social media network: For the purposes of improving the relevancy and targeting of marketing, the information collected may be provided to third-party advertising or social media networks to generate “lookalike” or custom audiences. This activity is governed by the network’s own privacy policy and terms and conditions – you can learn more about Facebook ads here and other types of online advertising here.
• Invite you to receive periodic e-mail updates about our progress: When you accept, or “opt in,” we ask you to give us your e-mail address and respond to some questions that help us tailor our information to your interests. You can “opt out” of receiving these periodic updates at any time.
• Processing any online donations you make to Boys & Girls Club of Central and Northern New Hampshire: When you make an online donation, we ask you for your name, address, telephone number, email address, and credit card information. When you donate to honor someone else, we do not use the information you give us about that person for any other purpose.
• Display Club locations when searching via “Find a Club”: When you search for a Club, you may choose to share your exact location via your browser or manually enter a location. This data is only used to display the closest Club locations to you.
