Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 1, 2026
The Art & Nature Center ("we," "us," or "the ANC") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect through our website and how we use it.
Information we collect
We collect information you choose to provide, including:
- Contact information — such as your name and email address when you sign up for our newsletter, register for an event, or join our Bird Festival waitlist.
- Membership and donation information — when you become a member or make a donation, payment is processed securely through Stripe. We receive your name, email address, and a record of your transaction. We do not see or store your full payment card details — those are handled directly by Stripe.
How we use your information
We use the information we collect to:
- Process memberships, donations, and event registrations
- Send newsletters, event updates, and ANC news to those who have opted in
- Respond to your questions and communicate about our programs
Email and marketing communications
If you sign up for our newsletter, we use your email address to send news, event information, and updates about the Art & Nature Center. When you make a membership purchase or donation, we may also use your email address to communicate with you about your transaction and about the Center.
You can unsubscribe from our newsletter and updates at any time by clicking the "unsubscribe" link at the bottom of any email we send. Our email is managed through MailerLite, which handles unsubscribe requests automatically.
How we share information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We share information only with the trusted services that help us operate, such as:
- Stripe — to process payments
- MailerLite — to manage our email list and send newsletters
These services have their own privacy policies governing how they handle your data.
Cookies & website analytics
Our website may use basic cookies to help the site function. We also collect general, anonymized usage data — such as how many people visit, which pages are viewed, and where visitors come from — to help us understand how the site is used and improve it. This data does not identify you personally. You can set your browser to refuse cookies, though some features may not work as well.
Children's privacy
Our website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
