Information We Collect

When you register for Juneteenth NYC events, submit a nomination, or apply as a vendor, model, or designer, we collect personal information necessary to process your request. This may include your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, and event-specific details such as measurements for fashion show participants or business descriptions for vendor applicants.

We also collect non-personally identifiable information through standard web analytics, including your browser type, device information, pages visited, and referral sources. This data helps us understand how visitors use our website so we can improve the experience.

How We Use Your Information

Your personal information is used exclusively for the purposes you provided it — processing event registrations, coordinating with participants, communicating event details, and responding to inquiries. We may also use your email address to send updates about upcoming Juneteenth NYC events if you have opted in to receive such communications.

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. We may share limited information with event partners and vendors only as necessary to fulfill your registration or participation request.

Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
