Privacy Policy

Personal Information

The Nantucket Land  & Water Council (NLWC) respects your privacy and has instituted policies intended to ensure that your personal information is handled in a safe and responsible manner.

We collect only the domain name, but not the e-mail address of visitors to our website. The information we collect is used to improve the content of the site. The information is not shared with other organizations for commercial purposes.

If you have supplied us with your email address, postal address, or telephone number online, you may receive periodic email, mailings and telephone calls about promotions and upcoming events. If you do not want to receive such information from us in the future, please contact us.

Credit Card Information

This website uses SSLA Secured processing to encrypt credit card information provided as part of an order placed through our online shop. This eliminates the risk of the decoding of that information by anyone other than the NLWC for the purposes of processing your order. To check the security of your connection, look at the bottom of your browser window after accessing the server. If you see an unbroken key or a closed lock (depending upon your browser), then the secured processing is active. You can also verify secured processing by looking at the URL line of your browser. When accessing a secure server, the first characters of the site address will change from “http” to “https.”

Donor Privacy Policy

Nantucket Land & Water Council will not sell, share, or trade our donors’ names or personal information with any other entity, nor will it send mailings to our donors on behalf of other organizations.

This policy applies to all information received by Nantucket Land & Water Council, both online and offline, on any Platform (Nantucket Land & Water Council’s website and mobile applications), and to electronic, written, or oral communications.

To the extent that any donations are processed through a third-party service provider, our donors’ information will only be used for purposes necessary to process the donation.
