We take precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and offline.
Wherever we collect sensitive information (such as e-mail addresses or phone numbers), that information is transmitted to us in a secure way. While we use techniques to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only agents of the association who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, responding to your inquiry) are granted access to personally identifiable information. The computers/servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.
The Internet is however not 100% secure. We cannot promise that your use of our site or services will be completely safe. Any transmission of your data to our site is at your own risk. We encourage you to use caution when using the Internet. This includes not sharing your passwords. We keep personal information as long as it is necessary or relevant for the practices described in this Policy. We also keep information as otherwise required by law.

You may exercise your rights and submit requests to
[email protected] or by calling 949.673.3515 or writing to Balboa Yacht Club, 1801 Bayside Drive, Corona del Mar, CA 92625. When submitting your requests, please provide us your name, email, phone number, type of request you are making, and preferred method of contact. You may submit a Request to Know twice in a 12-month period. However, we have the right to deny any subsequent Requests to Know within a 12-month period.
Verifying Privacy Requests
When you submit a privacy request, we are obligated to verify your identity to ensure you are the consumer that is the subject of the request. Whenever feasible, we will ask you to identify information that may match the personal information we may already have on file. Depending on the sensitivity of the information that is the subject of the request, our verification process will differ and the amount of data points we ask to you match will change.
Requests Submitted by Authorized Agents
You have the right to authorize a person or business entity to act on your behalf when submitting privacy requests.
When an authorized agent submits a privacy request on your behalf, please instruct them to provide proof of authorization in the request. Proof of authorization can be in the form of proof of written permission by you and verification of your identity with us, or proof that you have provided the agent with power of attorney. Please note, we have the right to deny a request from an authorized agent if they do not submit proof that they have been authorized by you to act on your behalf, and we may require the agent to verify their own identity directly with us.
Please note your rights in relation to your personal data are not absolute. We may, for example, deny you access to your personal data when required or authorized by law, or if granting access would have an unreasonable impact on another individual’s privacy.
We will retain and use your personal information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
