Introduction
The Sanctuary SLC ("The Sanctuary," "we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, retain and protect the personal information of members, applicants and event participants ("you," "your") when you visit thesanctuaryslc.com, apply for membership, or use our member portal and related services (collectively, the "Platform").
Our member portal runs on Ivy, a platform operated by Trellis Stack LLC, which processes information on our behalf to provide the service. Its privacy policy is at https://www.trellisstack.com/privacy.html.

Text Messaging
If you check the optional event and promotional text box on our membership application, The Sanctuary SLC may text you about upcoming events, schedule changes and club news. This consent is optional and is not a condition of membership or purchase. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply HELP for help or STOP to cancel.
Account texts — sign-in codes, application updates, receipts and renewal reminders — are sent by The Sanctuary SLC and are covered by our Terms at https://thesanctuaryslc.com/terms.
Mobile information will not be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Sharing of information is allowed solely with subcontractors providing support services, such as customer service.
We do not sell or share your SMS opt-in data or personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.
How We Share Your Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share it with:
- Trellis Stack LLC, which operates our member portal;
- our service providers, such as background check providers, payment processors, and text message and email delivery providers;
- law enforcement or government agencies, as required by law;
- parties involved in a business transfer, such as a merger or acquisition;

- others with your consent, or when needed to protect our legal rights or the safety of our members.
All the above categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites linked from the Platform.
Membership Eligibility and Dispute Resolution
If your background check disqualifies you, we will notify you and offer the opportunity to dispute the result or request a review. If membership is ultimately denied, we will delete your data after any required retention period.
Your Rights and Choices
You have the right to:

Submit requests through the support chat in the member portal or by calling +1 (480) 810-4485. We will respond in accordance with applicable laws.
State Privacy Rights
Some U.S. states grant additional privacy rights, including California (CCPA), Texas (TDPSA), Virginia (VCDPA), Colorado, Utah, Connecticut and others. We do not currently meet the thresholds that require compliance with these laws, but we honor reasonable requests regarding personal information, including opt-outs and access.
International Users
The Sanctuary is based in the United States. If you access the Platform from outside the U.S., your information may be transferred to and processed in the U.S. or other countries that may not offer the same level of protection as your jurisdiction.
Data Security and Retention
We use industry-standard measures, such as SSL, encryption and access controls, to safeguard your information. No method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure; use the Platform at your own risk.
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described here or to meet legal requirements. Records of text message consent and opt-out are kept permanently. Publicly available or de-identified data may be retained indefinitely.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy periodically. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email or on the Platform. Continued use of the Platform after changes are posted means you accept the updated Policy.
