Privacy policy
How GoPride Corporation handles information in connection with GoPride Chicago and ChicagoPride.com.
Who is responsible
GoPride Corporation operates this website. Questions or requests about personal information can be sent to privacy@gopride.com. You can also write to GoPride Corporation, 3712 North Broadway, Reception #471, Chicago, IL 60613. This policy covers information handled through our website and related communications; other websites and services have their own policies.
Information you provide
You may provide your name, email address, organization, contact details and message when you contact us. Submissions can also include event information, photographs, articles or other material you choose to send. Account and newsletter features may collect the information needed for the feature you use.
Do not include passwords, payment-card details or sensitive personal information in a general contact message. Public submissions may be published after review; contacting us about an inquiry does not itself make your message a public submission.
Information from website use
Website requests can include an IP address, browser and device information, requested pages, timestamps and referral information. Cookies and browser storage can support site operation, preferences and measurement. The information collected by optional tools depends on the tools enabled and your choices.
Why we use information
- Operate the website, maintain accounts and provide requested features.
- Respond to inquiries and manage submissions or business relationships.
- Send requested communications and manage subscription preferences.
- Understand website use and improve content and usability.
- Protect the service, prevent misuse, resolve disputes and meet legal obligations.
Google Analytics and HubSpot
We use Google Analytics for website measurement and HubSpot for related marketing and relationship-management activities. Depending on enabled features and permissions, these services may process online identifiers, usage information or contact information.
Learn more in Google’s information about partner websites and HubSpot’s privacy policy. Use our privacy controls to review optional tracking choices.
Cookies and your choices
You can review available categories using the site’s privacy controls. Browser settings also let you block or remove cookies and other stored data. Choices may need to be repeated on another browser or device, or after clearing storage. Essential functionality may be affected if you block all storage.
Sharing and service providers
Service providers that support hosting, email, analytics, customer communications and security may process information to perform those services. We may disclose information when required by law, to protect rights and safety, or in connection with a corporate transaction, subject to applicable protections. Material you submit for publication may be visible publicly.
We do not sell mailing lists. Advertising-related processing can be treated differently under different privacy laws. Contact us about applicable sale, sharing or targeted-advertising opt-outs, and use the privacy controls for optional advertising technologies.
Retention and protection
We keep information for as long as reasonably needed for the purpose for which it was collected, including handling requests, maintaining records and meeting legal obligations. Retention varies by information type and service. We use measures intended to protect information, but no website, transmission or storage system can be guaranteed secure.
Your requests and communications
Depending on where you live and the law that applies, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or obtain a copy of information, restrict or object to certain processing, or withdraw consent. These rights can be subject to exceptions. We may need information to verify your identity and authority before acting on a request.
Email privacy@gopride.com with your request. You may ask about submitting a request through an authorized agent or appealing a response. You can unsubscribe from marketing emails using the instructions in the message; necessary service communications may continue.
International processing
Our website and providers may process information in the United States and other locations where they operate. Privacy laws can differ by location. Where applicable law requires safeguards for a transfer, the relevant protections must be used. Contact us for information about processing relevant to your request.
Children and sensitive information
Our general-audience website is not directed to children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information without appropriate authorization, contact us. Some events or venues are age-restricted; a website listing does not override those restrictions.
A visit to this website, a photograph or a mention in an article should not be used to infer someone’s sexual orientation, gender identity or other sensitive characteristics.
Changes and contact
We may update this policy as our services or practices change. The date above identifies the latest revision. Material changes will be communicated as required by applicable law. For a privacy concern, email privacy@gopride.com or use our contact form.
