Privacy Policy
This Privacy Notice describes the information collection, use, retention, and sharing practices of Classical KING FM 98.1 (“Classical KING”, “we”, “us”, “our”) when you interact with us through our website, www.classicalking.org (the “Website”) and when you interact with us offline, such as when you contact us via telephone or by other offline means (collectively, the “Services”).
As used in this Privacy Notice, “personal information” means information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular person.
PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT, WHY AND FOR HOW LONG
We collect personal information as you engage with our Services, including when you:
Contact us. When you contact us, we collect, from you, your personal identifiers (name, email address) and any additional information you choose to include in your message. We use this information to respond to your questions or inquiries and to troubleshoot where necessary.
Sign up for our newsletter. When you sign up for our newsletter, we collect, from you, your personal identifiers (email address). We use this information to send you information about new product arrivals, discounts, and more! You may revoke your consent at any time with effect moving forward by clicking the “unsubscribe” link included within each email we send to you. However, we will continue to send you service-related messages. We, through our service provider, use tracking pixels to determine whether you open emails, the time of opening, information about the device you use (including IP address), whether you interacted with the email, the topic of the email, whether it was delivered, sender and recipient addresses. We use this information to:
- (1) measure the effectiveness of our communications and make them more attractive, particularly by improving email subject lines;
- (2) limit the frequency of sending or stop it, ensuring emails continue to reach their recipients;
- (3) detect and analyze suspected fraud;
- (4) personalize communications based on your interest in received emails and interaction with them. This personalization includes: adapting message content / adjusting sending frequency or communication channel / optimizing campaigns based on reactions (e.g., adjusting email subject lines); and
- (5) offer tailored content or advertisements on other websites, applications, or communication channels.
You can avoid downloading the pixel by rejecting the download of images in the email.
Become a Member or Donate. When you become a member or donate to Classical KING we collect from you, your personal identifiers (name, email address, physical address, and telephone number) and your payment information (credit or debit card number, security code, and expiration date or your account and routing number if donating by ACH transfer). We use this information to facilitate your donation to Classical KING. If you make a donation using a credit or debit card, your financial information is shared with our third-party payment processor, Blackbaud, to process your donation. Blackbaud sends some transaction details to Classical KING, including your name, the last four digits of your card number, and the card type (e.g., Visa, Mastercard). Please see Blackbaud’s Privacy Policy for additional information on their data practices.
Additionally, you can donate to Classical KING in other ways, such as donating your car. If you choose to donate your car, we work with Charitable Adult Rides & Services, Inc. (“CARS”), a non-profit organization, that facilitates your car donation. Please read CARS’ Privacy Notice for more information on their privacy practices. If you donate through CARS, we collect from them your personal identifiers (name) and your commercial information (the donated cars’ make, model, year, and how much the car sold for at auction). We only use this information to facilitate your donation.
You may also choose to donate to Classical KING through your existing financial custodial accounts, such as a brokerage account or a retirement account, like an IRA. If you choose to donate to Classical KING using your custodial account, we receive your personal identifiers (name and address) and your financial information (account and routing number associated with the donation). We obtain this information from the donation check to Classical KING. We only use this information to facilitate your donation.
Volunteer. When you sign up to volunteer with Classical KING, we collect from you your personal identifiers (name, phone number, and email address), whether you are over the age of 18 years old, your employment status, and your volunteering preferences. We use this information to add you to our volunteer programs, evaluate your fitness for our programs, and provide you with additional information about volunteering and other volunteer opportunities.
Interact with us on social media. When you interact with our social media pages on social networking websites, such as Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok (each a “Social Media Page” and collectively, “Social Media Pages”), we collect basic engagement metrics and use it to tailor content and marketing and use it to improve user experience as set forth in this section. Please note that we do not control the use or storage of the information that you have posted to any social networking websites. This information is collected and processed by the social networking websites for their own purposes, including marketing. For more information on how Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok use your personal information, please see Facebook’s Privacy Policy, Instagram’s Privacy Policy, YouTube’s Privacy Policy, and TikTok’s Privacy Policy.
Social Media Pages. When interacting with our Social Media Pages, we collect, from you, your personal identifiers (first and last name)and visual information (photograph (i.e., profile picture)), as well as any information that you provide when interacting with our Social Media Pages (e.g., commenting, sharing, and rating). We use this information to advertise our products, for events and invitations, and to communicate with users via the contribution and comment function. Because our Social Media Pages are publicly accessible, when you use them to interact with other users, for example by posting, leaving comments or liking or sharing posts, any personal information that you post in them or provide when registering can be viewed by others or used by them as they see fit. The content posted on our Social Media Pages or other public areas of social networking websites can be deleted in the same way as other content that you have created. If at any time you want content posted to be deleted, please email your request to us at friends@king.org.
Community Management. We collect, from you, your contact, including “likes”, shares, messages and other interactions with the content, in order to analyze and evaluate how our content is perceived, to learn from it, and to improve our public relations efforts.
Page Insights. When you visit our Social Media Page, the applicable Social Network records your IP address and other information about your usage behavior on our Social Media Page. The Social Network collects this information through trackers in the browser of your device or via the advertising ID (IDFA from Apple or GAID from Google), when you open the Social Network app through your mobile device (e.g., smartphone or tablet). The Social Network uses this information to provide us with statistical evaluations of the use of our Social Media Page. We receive this information directly from Social Network, in the form of aggregated data and anonymous statistics regarding certain data points, such as: age; gender; city/country; device; inquiries from fans about other Social Media Pages; region and language settings of the users; proportion of men and women; the number of people reached; clicks on posts, “likes” and reactions; comments and shared content; and total video views. We use this information to analyze and improve the advertising campaigns we conduct through our Social Media Pages. We do not collect or process any other personal information in connection with Social Network “Page Insights” function.
We do not retain this information independently. For information on data protection and the storage period on the Social Network in relation to its Insights function, see the Social Network privacy policy linked above. It has been contractually agreed with the Social Network that the Social Network is responsible for providing you with information about the processing for Page Insights.
Information Processed Solely by Social Networks. We do not know how the Social Networks use personal information for their own purposes, how long the personal information is stored on the Social Networks or whether the Social Networks’ data is passed on to third parties. If you are currently logged in to a Social Network as a user, the Social Network automatically collects, through trackers on your device, your Social Network ID or a link between the Social Network ID and the advertising ID (IDFA from Apple or GAID from Google) when you open the Social Network app through your mobile device (e.g., smartphone or tablet). This enables the Social Network to understand that you have visited our Social Media Page along with other social media pages that you have clicked on, whether you clicked on Social Network buttons integrated into websites that partner with the Social Network, and other online interactions that report user data to the Social Network. Based on this data, content or advertising tailored to you can be offered. You can find more information about the personal information collected by Social Networks, how it is used and how long it is stored by visiting the Social Network’s privacy policies, linked above.
