Privacy Policy
Effective Date: October 2026
1. Information We Collect
The Gulf Coast Community Chamber of Commerce collects information submitted through our official forms, including membership applications, event registrations, strategic partner inquiries, leadership interest forms, and opportunity submissions. This typically includes contact names, organizational emails, phone numbers, business entity names, and trade classifications.
2. Use of Information
Collected information is used exclusively to facilitate chamber services: distributing procurement and bid notifications, verifying membership eligibility, coordinating business power hours, providing advocacy briefings, and delivering administrative communications across the Greater Galveston–Gulf Coast Region.
3. Data Sharing & Third Parties
We do not sell, rent, or trade member or visitor personal data to third-party commercial marketing lists. Information is shared only with authorized partners (such as co-hosts of specific procurement sessions) with explicit registrant understanding.
4. Cookies & Analytics
Our website may use cookies and analytics tools to understand how visitors interact with our content and to improve site performance. These tools collect aggregate, non-identifying usage data. You may disable cookies in your browser settings without affecting your ability to access chamber resources.
5. Data Security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the information you submit. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
6. Inquiries & Corrections
To review, update, or request removal of your business contact information from chamber registries, contact our administrative desk at info@gulfcoastcommunitychamber.org or call 409-220-6881.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. The effective date above indicates when the policy was last revised.
