Privacy Policy

Overview

Bonnie Doone Cartway ("we," "us," or "our") operates a private community website at bonniedoonecartway.com and app.bonniedoonecartway.com. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect information provided by members of the Bonnie Doone Cartway community. We take your privacy seriously and collect only what is necessary to operate this service.

Information We Collect

We collect only the information needed to provide the community portal:

• Name and email address (required to create an account)
• Family name or cottage association (to verify community membership)
• Reservation details you create within the portal (dates, cottage, notes)
• Posts and comments you submit to the bulletin board
• Login activity and session information (for security)

We do not collect payment information, government IDs, or any sensitive personal data.

How We Use Your Information

Your information is used solely to:

• Provide access to the community portal
• Display your name and family information to other approved community members
• Send transactional emails (registration confirmation, password reset, reservation notifications)
• Allow you to manage cottage reservations and communicate on the bulletin board

Information Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for commercial purposes. Your information is visible to other approved members of the Bonnie Doone Cartway community within the portal (e.g., your name on a reservation or bulletin post). We do not share data with advertisers or data brokers. We may disclose information if required by law.

Data Storage & Security

All data is stored on secure cloud infrastructure. We use industry-standard security practices including encrypted connections (TLS), encrypted database storage, and access controls. Passwords are stored as cryptographic hashes and are never readable by administrators.

Cookies & Tracking

The community portal uses session cookies to keep you logged in. We do not use tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or third-party analytics. The marketing site (this site) does not set any cookies.

Data Retention

We retain your account data for as long as your account remains active. If you request account deletion, we will remove your personal information within 30 days, except where retention is required for legitimate purposes (e.g., historical reservation records relevant to other community members).

Your Rights

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data at any time by contacting the lane administrator. We will respond to requests within 30 days.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify active community members of material changes via email. Continued use of the portal after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
