Privacy Policy

FedGirls is dedicated to empowering women-owned businesses to succeed in the federal contracting space. As part of our commitment, we recognize the importance of protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy applies to all users of the Fed Girls website and services, including those who register for our programs, join our membership community, or utilize our federal contracting support.

We collect both personal and non-personal information. Personal information refers to data that can identify you directly (e.g., name, contact details, business information), while non-personal information helps us understand your usage of our services (e.g., browser type, IP address).

Personal Information

• Contact Information: Name, email address, phone number, physical address.
• Business Information: Company name, business size, type, federal contracting history.
• Payment Information: Billing address, payment method details (processed by third-party providers).
• Government-specific Information: SAM registration, certifications, set-aside statuses, compliance details.

Non-Personal Information

• Web Analytics: Information such as IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and timestamps that are collected through cookies and web beacons for improving user experience.
• Cookies: We use cookies to enhance website functionality and tailor content to your preferences. You can adjust your browser settings to reject cookies, but this may limit access to certain website features.

We process your personal information for the following purposes:

• Provide Services: To offer and deliver the services you request, including federal contracting support, consulting, and membership services.
• Compliance & Legal Obligations: To comply with federal regulations, including those required for federal contractors (e.g., SAM registration, certifications).
• Marketing & Communication: To inform you about updates, events, new services, and opportunities within the Fed Girls community with your consent. You can opt-out of marketing communications at any time.
• Security & Fraud Prevention: To detect and prevent fraudulent activities and to safeguard the integrity of our website and services.

We value your privacy and will never share your personal information to third parties. However, we may share your information with the following parties under specific circumstances:

• Service Providers: We may share data with trusted third-party vendors (payment processors, email providers, etc.) who assist in running our services. These third parties are obligated to use your information only for the services they provide to Fed Girls and the use is limited for the purpose of Services only.
• Legal and Regulatory Compliance: We may disclose information if required to do so by law, including in response to a subpoena, legal process, or government request.
• Business Transfers: If Fed Girls is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred to the new entity. We will notify you of any such transfer and update this Privacy Policy as required.

Fed Girls implements physical, administrative, and technical safeguards to protect your personal information. These measures include:

• Encryption of sensitive data (e.g., payment details) during transmission.
• Access Controls to restrict who can access your information.
• Monitoring of systems to detect unauthorized access or data breaches.

Although we use reasonable efforts to protect your data, no system is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. We recommend that you use strong, unique passwords for your account and notify us immediately if you believe your account has been compromised.

You have the right to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you. To make such requests, please contact us at info@fedgirls.org. We may require proof of identity to fulfill certain requests and may charge a fee for access requests, as permitted by law.

If you choose to delete your information, please be aware that this may affect your ability to use our services, especially if we need your data for compliance purposes.

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy or as required by law (e.g., federal contracting regulations). After this period, your personal information will be securely deleted or anonymized.

Fed Girls does not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of 13. If we discover that a child under 13 has provided us with personal data, we will take steps to delete that information promptly.

By using our platform or registering for any Services, you undertake that you are above the age of majority in your jurisdiction and have the rights to share any data you upload on our Site.

Our website may contain links to external sites or services that are not under our control. This Privacy Policy applies only to information collected by FedGirls. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third-party sites before sharing your personal data.

As a U.S.-based service, you have certain rights regarding your data under applicable federal and state laws. You may:

• Request Access to your personal data.
• Request Correction of inaccurate or incomplete information.
• Request Deletion of your personal data (with exceptions for compliance and legal requirements).
• Opt-Out of marketing communications at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions in emails or contacting us directly.

We reserve the right to update this Privacy Policy as needed to reflect changes in our practices or legal obligations. Any updates will be posted on this page with a new effective date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically for the latest information.
