Privacy Policy

Hey You’re Invited LLC operates this website. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, share and protect information when you visit the site or submit information through it.

If you have questions about this policy, email info@heyyoureinvited.com.

We collect the information you choose to give us through forms on this site or through forms we host with a connected service. Depending on the form, that can include:

• Name
• Email address
• Phone number and other contact information
• Organization or company
• Professional role or title
• Interests and the ways you would like to participate
• City, state, ZIP code or general location information
• Information submitted through contact, registration, partnership, media, proposal, survey or city nomination forms
• Age range, and parent or guardian contact information where a form involves someone under 18
• Messages and communications you send directly to Hey You're Invited LLC

Please do not submit sensitive personal information unless we specifically request it and it is necessary for the purpose of the form.

After you accept analytics cookies, Google Analytics may collect information such as:

• Pages visited
• Approximate geographic area
• Browser and device type
• Referring website
• Date and time of visits
• Interactions with website features
• Cookie or device identifiers
• General website usage and performance information

Hey You’re Invited LLC does not intentionally send names, email addresses, phone numbers, form answers or other directly identifying information to Google Analytics.

This website uses Google Analytics, a service provided by Google, only after you accept analytics cookies. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to help measure website traffic, understand how visitors use the site and improve the visitor experience.

You can read Google’s explanation of how it uses information from sites and apps that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

When you first visit, a banner asks you to accept or reject analytics cookies. Nothing analytics related loads until you accept. Continuing to browse is not treated as consent. Your choice is saved in your browser so the banner does not reappear on later visits. You can change your choice at any time using the Cookie Preferences link in the footer of every page, or the button below.

Open Cookie Preferences

If you change from accepted to rejected, we stop collection, remove the Google Analytics cookies that can be removed from this site’s domain, and send no further page views. Refreshing the page completes the change.

We may use information to:

• Respond to questions and inquiries
• Process registrations and expressions of interest
• Communicate about Hey You're Invited™, FLAGCITY™ and related opportunities
• Evaluate partnership, speaking, media, sponsorship or community inquiries
• Improve the website and visitor experience
• Understand website traffic and engagement
• Protect the website and prevent misuse
• Comply with legal obligations

We do not use the information you submit to target advertising to you.

We share information only as reasonably necessary with service providers that support website hosting, our databases, forms, email communications, analytics and ordinary business operations. These providers process information on our behalf and are not permitted to use it for their own purposes.

The third-party services currently used by this website are:

• Google Forms, which hosts our FLAGCITY™ pre-registration form and stores the responses you submit there
• Google Analytics, which measures website traffic after you accept analytics cookies
• Our website hosting and database provider, which serves the site and stores form submissions
• An artificial intelligence provider, which processes the text you type into interactive features on the site in order to generate a response

Hey You’re Invited LLC does not sell personal information.

We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect legal rights or safety, or in connection with a legitimate business transaction such as a merger, acquisition or transfer of assets.

If you ask for updates, you may receive email communications from Hey You’re Invited LLC about Hey You’re Invited™, FLAGCITY™ and related opportunities. Optional marketing communications are separate from replies to your questions and from transactional messages that confirm or follow up on something you submitted.

You can unsubscribe using the unsubscribe link when one is included, or by emailing info@heyyoureinvited.com. Submitting a form does not automatically sign you up for marketing email; where consent is requested it is shown clearly and is never preselected.

This website includes content and opportunities relevant to families, girls and young athletes, so we treat information about children with particular care.

• Children under 13 should not submit personal information directly through this website.
• A parent or legal guardian must submit information on behalf of a child under 13.
• Where a form involves someone under 18, it asks for the parent or guardian's contact information and consent instead of the child's own email address.
• We do not send a child's name, age, email address or form answers to Google Analytics.
• Analytics does not load until a visitor accepts analytics cookies.

If we learn that personal information was submitted directly by a child under 13 without appropriate parental authorization, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

Parents and guardians may contact info@heyyoureinvited.com to ask what information we hold about a child, to correct it or to request that it be deleted.

A checkbox on a form is not a legally verified form of parental consent, and we do not describe our current process as verified parental consent or as a determination of compliance with children’s privacy law.

We keep information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, for legitimate business needs and to meet applicable legal obligations. When information is no longer needed for those purposes, we delete it or stop using it.

We use reasonable administrative, technical and organizational safeguards to protect the information we hold. No website, database or method of transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure, so we cannot promise absolute security.

You can:

• Reject analytics cookies when the consent banner appears
• Change your cookie choice at any time using the Cookie Preferences link in the footer
• Unsubscribe from marketing communications using an unsubscribe link or by emailing us
• Request access to, correction of or deletion of personal information we hold about you
• Contact us with any privacy question

Send privacy requests to info@heyyoureinvited.com. We handle requests in accordance with applicable law. If your request concerns a form submission, please include the approximate date and the type of form so we can locate the record.

This website links to websites operated by other organizations, including partner websites and external registration forms. We are not responsible for the content or the separate privacy practices of those websites. Please review their privacy policies before submitting information to them.

We may update this policy as the website, our services or applicable requirements change. The revised “Last Updated” date at the top of this page shows when the current version took effect.
