When you request information, submit questions or provide feedback via this website, we may ask you for data including, but not limited to: Your name, postal address, phone number and email address for the purpose of responding or following up. We may also ask you to provide other data relevant to your request. With the exception of payment card information that is securely transmitted to our third-party payment processor (“Stripe”), we generally do not seek or request data that may be considered “special”, “sensitive” or “privileged”. Examples of considered “special”, “sensitive” or “privileged” data could be government-issued identification numbers, information related to an individual’s racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or other beliefs, health, criminal background or trade union membership.

Payment card data collected

Siouxland Growth Organization accepts monetary payments through a number of trusted partners. These partners include, but are not limited to, Stripe. When you submit a payment via any of our trusted partners, you will be required, either directly or indirectly, to provide payment card information such as card number, expiration date, CVV code and relevant billing information. Upon submission of your monetary payment, your payment card information is securely transmitted to the selected payment processing partner. Siouxland Growth Organization does not receive payment card information. Any non-payment data, such as that mentioned in “Data you provide”, that is received will be used for record keeping and payment acknowledgement purposes. Demographic and profile data is also collected at our site. We use this data to tailor your experiences at our site, to show you content that we think you might be interested in, and to display the content according to your preferences. Customer information is considered to be an asset of Siouxland Growth Organization and as such may be transferred to another company as part of an acquisition of Siouxland Growth Organization.

Security Information

We use reasonable organizational, technical, and administrative measures to protect data under our control. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the internet or data storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. If you feel that the security of any data that we hold about you has been compromised, please immediately notify us of the problem by contacting us. When you send sensitive information (such as your credit card number) to us via our payment form, that information is encrypted and protected with SSL, the current industry standard encryption protocol. When you are on such an SSL protected page, a picture of a closed lock appears at the bottom or top of some Web browsers. At other times this lock appears open. Another way to tell if you are on a secure page is to look at the address or URL of the page. (Look in the address box or right click on the page and select “Properties”.) These secure SSL encrypted pages have URLs that start with https:// instead of http://.
