Information we collect
We collect information you provide directly — such as your name, business name, email, phone number, and any details you submit through our membership, contact, or spotlight forms.
How we use it
We use your information to operate the association: managing memberships, sharing the member directory, sending event and community updates, and responding to your inquiries.
Cookies & analytics
Our site may use cookies and basic analytics to understand how the site is used and to improve it. You can control cookies through your browser settings.
Third-party services
We may use trusted third-party services (for example, payment processing or email delivery) to operate the association. These providers only receive the information needed to perform their service.
Bank connections (Plaid)
To keep our own books, the association's owners can connect the association's bank accounts, and their own accounts, through Plaid. You log into your bank only in Plaid's secure window; we never see or store bank usernames or passwords. We receive only account names, the last 4 digits, balances and transactions. This data is encrypted in transit and at rest, is visible only to the people the account owner allows, and is never sold or shared for marketing. Disconnecting a bank stops all updates and deletes its connection at once. You can ask us to delete the rest of your bank data at any time; we do so within 30 days unless the law requires us to keep a record longer. Plaid's handling of your data is described in the Plaid End User Privacy Policy.
Text messages (SMS)
If you provide your phone number and opt in, we may send recurring text messages such as event reminders, membership and dues notices, secure payment links, and community updates from the Argyle Business Association. Message and data rates may apply and message frequency varies. Reply STOP to opt out at any time, or HELP for help. Opting in to text messages is not a condition of membership or purchase. We do not sell or share your phone number or your SMS opt-in consent with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing purposes.
Your choices
You may request to review, update, or remove your information at any time by contacting us. Members can also update their own details through the member portal.
