Privacy Policy

Effective and last updated: October 4, 2026

Santa Monica Basketball League LLC operates this website. This policy explains what information we collect here, why we use it, and how to contact us about it.

Information You Give Us

Contact and partnership forms collect the name, email address, subject, and message you submit. The partnership form also lets you provide a phone number. Our newsletter form collects your first name and email address so Kit can send a confirmation email and, if you confirm, program updates. The contact, partnership, and on-site Open Gym forms also offer an optional email-updates choice.

Program interest forms hosted on this site collect the answers requested by each form. The current adult Open Gym form asks for a name, email address, phone number, age, basketball experience, and interest in 3-on-3 play. Forms reached through outside links, including registration forms, may ask for other details on those services. If a linked form is for one of our programs, we may receive the information you submit there to handle your inquiry or registration.

Information Collected When You Visit

Our hosting and security provider, Cloudflare, processes technical information such as your IP address, browser and device information, requested pages, and request times to deliver and protect the site. Our form rate limits use keyed, non-readable versions of email addresses and IP addresses rather than placing those raw values in the rate limit store.

The public website does not add advertising pixels or third-party analytics scripts. Authorized editors use a sign-in cookie to access the admin area. Cloudflare may use cookies or similar identifiers needed for its security and access features.

How We Use Information

We use inquiries and program interest answers to respond, administer requests, and plan programs. If you choose email updates on a form, we send your first name and email address to Kit for a separate confirmation message. We send program news and registration information after you confirm your subscription. We use technical information to operate the website, protect the forms from abuse, and maintain security.

Services That Handle Information

Cloudflare hosts and protects the site. Convex stores website messages, program interest answers, and newsletter signup requests. Kit (formerly ConvertKit) receives newsletter names and email addresses and manages email confirmation, subscriptions, and unsubscribes. Resend sends contact and partnership messages to our team; our Google Workspace mailbox receives those notifications. Typeform hosts linked interest and registration forms and processes answers submitted there; we may receive those answers. Instagram handles information you provide on its pages under its own privacy notice.

Email Choices and Your Requests

You can unsubscribe from program emails using the link in any Kit marketing email. To ask what information you submitted through this website, request a correction or deletion, or ask a privacy question, email info@santamonicawbb.com. We may need to verify your request before changing or disclosing information. Unsubscribing from program emails does not prevent us from replying to a message you sent us.

Retention

We automatically delete website contact and partnership messages and on-site program interest responses from Convex once they are older than 24 months after submission. Cleanup runs daily. Newsletter signup requests stored in Convex do not currently expire automatically; Kit separately maintains subscription and unsubscribe records.

Email notifications in our mailbox and information submitted through outside services, including Typeform, are stored separately and are not removed by the Convex cleanup. Contact us if you want us to review or delete information you submitted; some information may need to be kept for legitimate recordkeeping or legal reasons.

Children and Youth Programs

Some of our programs are for young players. For a child under 13, we ask a parent or guardian to subscribe to email updates using the adult’s own name and email address. The youth interest forms currently linked from this site instruct a parent or guardian to complete them for players under 18. The Open Gym interest form hosted on this site is for adults ages 18 and up.

If you believe a child under 13 has submitted personal information directly to us through a site form or a linked registration form for one of our programs, please email info@santamonicawbb.com so we can review and address it. Linked registration services may have additional requirements for parents and guardians.

Browser Tracking and Outside Links

This website does not currently change its practices in response to a browser Do Not Track signal. We do not embed cross-site advertising trackers in the website. Sites you reach through outside links, such as Typeform or Instagram, may collect information under their own privacy practices.

Changes to This Policy

We will post policy changes on this page and update the date above. If we make a material change to how we use information already collected, we will provide any additional notice required by law.
