Moses Lake Chamber of Commerce respects the rights of individuals to access, correct, and delete personal data relating to them, as well as to object to the processing of such data. Requests to exercise these rights may be submitted in writing to the Chamber at any time. Moses Lake Chamber of Commerce takes all reasonable measures to protect the security and confidentiality of personal data and to prevent unauthorized access, alteration, corruption, or destruction.

Information We Collect

Moses Lake Chamber of Commerce collects information to operate effectively and provide visitors with the best possible experience across our services. Some of this information is provided directly by you—such as when you create an account, sign up for updates, or complete a form. We also collect limited data automatically through technologies such as cookies or analytics tools, which help us understand how visitors use our website and improve its functionality. This may include information such as browser type, device information, or general location based on your IP address. In some cases, we may receive aggregated or demographic information from trusted third parties to better understand and serve our audience. The specific data collected depends on how you interact with the Chamber’s website and the services or features you use.

How We Use Your Information

Moses Lake Chamber of Commerce uses the information we collect for three primary purposes: To operate, improve, and personalize our services and website experience. To communicate with you, including providing updates, event information, and promotional materials. To display content and information that may be relevant to your interests. To deliver a consistent and seamless experience, we may combine information collected through different Chamber services you use. However, to protect your privacy, we maintain strong technical and procedural safeguards that prevent unnecessary or unauthorized data combinations. For example, information collected while you are not signed in is stored separately from any personal data that directly identifies you, such as your name, email address, or phone number.

Sharing Your Information

Moses Lake Chamber of Commerce shares personal data only with your consent or when it is necessary to complete a transaction or provide a service you have requested or authorized. For example, we may share information with a third party when you specifically direct us to do so. If you make a payment or register for a paid event, we may share necessary payment details with financial institutions and payment processors to complete the transaction and to help prevent fraud or reduce credit risk. We may also share information with trusted service providers or vendors who work on our behalf—such as those providing customer support, website hosting, or system security. These partners are required to comply with our data protection and confidentiality standards and may not use personal data for any purpose other than fulfilling their contractual obligations to the Chamber. In limited circumstances, personal data may be disclosed as part of a business transition, such as a merger, reorganization, or transfer of assets.
