We take your privacy seriously. This policy explains what information we collect on this website, how we use it, and how we protect it. We keep things simple here because that's how we operate.

1. Who We Are
San Bernardino County Firefighters' Association (SBCoFFA) is a 501(c)(4) membership association serving San Bernardino County Fire Department employees. Our mailing address is PO Box 236, Fontana, CA 92334-0236.

2. What Information We Collect
We collect information in a few different ways depending on how you interact with our site:

Contact Form
When you use our contact form, we collect:
Your name
Your email address
Any message you choose to send us
This information is used only to respond to your inquiry. We do not add you to any mailing list without your permission.

Membership Sign-Up Form
When you submit a board sign-up or membership interest form, we collect:
Your full name
Your county employee number
Date of submission
Your electronic signature
This information is used exclusively to process your membership application. It is shared only with SBCoFFA board members who need it to complete your enrollment. We do not sell, rent, or share this information with any outside party.

PayPal (Donations and Event Tickets)
When you make a donation or purchase Christmas dinner tickets through our PayPal buttons, your payment is processed directly by PayPal. We do not collect or store your payment card information on our site. PayPal's own privacy policy governs how they handle your financial data. You can review it at paypal.com/privacy.
We may receive confirmation of your transaction (such as your name and amount) from PayPal so we can acknowledge your donation or confirm your ticket purchase.
Donations are voluntary and support the operation of our organization. Because donated funds may be used immediately to support our mission, donations are generally non-refundable. If you believe a donation was made in error, please contact us promptly. Any refund requests will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Automatic Information
Like most websites, our site may collect basic technical information automatically, such as your browser type, device type, and general location (country/region). This is standard web analytics data and is not tied to your personal identity.

3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
Respond to your messages and inquiries
Process membership applications
Confirm donations and event ticket purchases
Improve the usability of our website
We do not use your information for advertising, and we do not sell it to anyone. Period.

4. Cookies
Our site may use basic cookies to help the site function properly. We do not use tracking cookies or third-party advertising cookies. If you use our PayPal buttons, PayPal may set its own cookies, which are governed by their policy.

5. California Residents (CCPA)
If you are a California resident, you have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including:
The right to know what personal information we have collected about you
The right to request deletion of your personal information
The right to opt out of the sale of your personal information (we don't sell it, but you have this right)
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected] or write to us at PO Box 236, Fontana, CA 92334-0236.

6. Data Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the information you share with us. Membership sign-up information, including employee numbers and signatures, is handled with care and shared only with authorized board members. That said, no internet transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Third-Party Links
Our website may contain links to external sites, including PayPal and our Facebook page. Once you leave our site, this privacy policy no longer applies. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.

8. Children's Privacy
Our website is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the effective date at the top of this page. We encourage you to check back periodically.
