Nevada PTA uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards intended to protect collected information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.No website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

8. Children's Privacy
Nevada PTA’s mission involves supporting children and families, but the website is intended primarily for parents, caregivers, educators, PTA leaders, members, volunteers, and other adults.Children should not submit personal information through the website without the involvement and permission of a parent or legal guardian. Nevada PTA does not knowingly seek personal information directly from children under 13 through its general website forms.If a parent or legal guardian believes that a child submitted personal information without appropriate permission, the parent or guardian should contact Nevada PTA so the information can be reviewed and, when appropriate, deleted.A program, event, or form that intentionally collects information concerning children may provide a separate privacy notice, permission form, or consent process for that specific activity.
9. Third-Party Links
Our informational resources frequently contain hyperlink reference points pointing toward outside state agencies, educational boards, or safety committees. Nevada PTA exercises no validation controls or liability over the terms governing those separate digital entities.
10. Service Providers and Other Disclosures
Nevada PTA does not sell or rent personal information.We may share information with service providers that support website hosting, website maintenance, data storage, spam detection, security monitoring, email delivery, form administration, survey administration, membership processing, event registration, payment processing, and organizational recordkeeping.These service providers may receive information only as reasonably necessary to perform services for Nevada PTA and are subject to their own agreements, privacy policies, and legal obligations.Nevada PTA may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, respond to a lawful request, protect the website, investigate suspected fraud or misuse, enforce organizational requirements, or protect the rights, property, and safety of Nevada PTA or others.
11. Policy Changes
Nevada PTA may revise this Privacy Policy when its website features, information practices, service providers, or applicable requirements change.Material changes will be communicated by posting the revised Privacy Policy on this page and updating the effective date or last-updated date. When appropriate, Nevada PTA may provide an additional notice through the website or by email.
12. California Rights
Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), qualifying users gain additional legal assurances to verify what categories of tracking information we collect, as well as the right to enforce non-retaliation and prompt deletion.
13. Nevada Privacy Rights
In strict compliance with Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS Chapter 603A), state residents are entitled to register 'do not sell' opt-out demands. Although Nevada PTA strictly avoids selling active member directories, you may submit formal requests via our administration email address.
14. Payments
Membership dues, donations, event fees, or other payments, payment information may be transmitted directly to a third-party payment processor. Nevada PTA may receive transaction information necessary for processing and record keeping. This information may include the payer’s or donor’s name, contact information, transaction amount, payment date, transaction status, and transaction identifier.Each payment processor’s collection and use of information is governed by its own privacy and security practices.
