This policy sets out how we collect, process, and hold your personal data if you visit our event ticket shop or otherwise provide personal data to us.
We, Marriage Rediscovery, Inc., operating the Rediscovery Retrouvaille Weekend Retreats, are the data controller of your personal data.

This policy affects your legal rights and obligations, so please read it carefully.

Personal Data We Collect

We collect, process, store, and use personal data when you book a retreat weekend or buy any of our associated products and services related to an event, including your name, address, and email address together with payment information. We may also collect personal data that you give to us about other people if you register them to attend an event. You agree that you have notified any other person whose personal data you provide to us of this privacy notice and, where necessary, obtained their consent so that we can lawfully process their personal data in accordance with this policy.

You do not need to provide us with any personal data to view our event ticket shop. However, we may still collect the information set out under the Data We Automatically Collect section of this policy and marketing communications in accordance with the Marketing Communications section of this policy.

When you contact us by email or post, we may keep a record of the correspondence.

We collect this information using cookies in accordance with the Cookies section of this policy, and we use the information we collect on an anonymous basis to improve our event ticket shop, our events, and the products and services we provide, as well as for analytical and research purposes.

By registering for a weekend, you opt in to receive marketing communications from us and consent to the processing of your data to send you such communications, which may include newsletters, blog posts, surveys, and information about new events. We retain a record of your consent.

You can choose to no longer receive marketing communications by contacting us or by clicking “unsubscribe” on any marketing email. If you unsubscribe, it may take up to 5 business days for your new preferences to take effect. We shall therefore retain your personal data in our records for marketing purposes until you notify us that you no longer wish to receive marketing emails from us.

Lawful Processing of Your Personal Data

We will use your personal data in order to comply with our contractual obligation to supply you with tickets to an event and any associated products and services. This includes contacting you with any information relating to the event or your purchases, delivering the event and products to you, handling any special requests, and dealing with any questions, comments, or complaints related to the event or your purchases.

We may also use your personal data for our legitimate interests, including responding to customer service requests, enforcing the terms of any agreement between us, meeting regulatory and legal requirements, conducting audits, and notifying you about changes to this policy.

We may share your personal data with any service providers, subcontractors, and agents that we appoint to perform functions on our behalf and in accordance with our instructions, including payment providers, event ticketing providers, email communication providers, IT service providers, accountants, auditors, and lawyers.

Under certain circumstances, we may be required to disclose your personal data under applicable laws and/or regulations or to protect a third party’s rights, property, or safety.

We may also share your personal data in connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of assets, consolidation, restructuring, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our ministry.

Where We Hold and Process Your Personal Data

We shall only transfer your personal data to organizations that have provided adequate safeguards in respect of your personal data.

Cookies

A cookie is a small text file containing a unique identification number that is transferred (through your browser) from a website to the hard drive of your computer. The cookie identifies your browser but will not let a website know your name and/or address. These files are used by websites to identify when users revisit that website.

Our event ticket shop uses cookies so that we can recognize you when you return and personalize your settings and preferences. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can change your browser settings to notify you when you receive a cookie or to refuse cookies entirely. Please note that our event ticket shop may not operate efficiently if you refuse to accept cookies.

We also use Google Analytics to monitor how the event ticket shop is used. Google Analytics collects information anonymously and generates reports detailing data such as the number of visits to the event ticket shop, where visitors came from, how long they stayed, and which pages they visited. Google Analytics places several persistent cookies on your computer’s hard drive. If you do not agree to this, you can disable persistent cookies in your browser, which will prevent Google Analytics from logging your visits.

Security

We shall process your personal data in a manner that ensures appropriate security, including protection against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction, or damage, using appropriate technical or organizational measures. All information you provide to us is stored on secure servers. Any payment transactions are encrypted using SSL technology.

Where we have given, or you have chosen, a password, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential.

However, you acknowledge that no system can be completely secure. Therefore, although we take these steps to secure your personal data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your Rights

You have the right to obtain from us a copy of the personal data that we hold for you and to require us to correct errors if the personal data is inaccurate or incomplete. You also have the right at any time to require that we delete your personal data. To exercise these or any other rights under applicable laws, please contact us directly.

Please note, we reserve the right to charge an administrative fee if your request is manifestly unfounded or excessive.

Our event ticket shop may contain links to other sites of interest. Once you use these links to leave our site, you should note that we do not have any control over those sites. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information you provide while visiting such sites. These sites are not governed by this policy, and you should review their individual privacy policies.

Retention

If you register with us, we shall retain your personal data until you close your account.

If you receive marketing communications from us, we shall retain your personal data until you opt out of receiving such communications.

General

If any provision of this policy is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be construed as closely as possible to reflect the intentions of the parties, and all other provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

This policy shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Florida, United States of America.
