This Privacy Notice applies to information collected while visiting our Sites, and personal information that you provide through the Sites. This Privacy Notice does not cover information collected by any other company, a third-party site or third-party application that may link to, or that can be accessed from, any of our Sites.

When and How Do We Collect Personal Information
Personal information means any information about an individual from which that individual may be identified (“Personal Information”). Personal Information includes obvious things, like your name, telephone number, email address, and street address, as well as less obvious things like your IP address, device ID and location information. Personal Information does not, however, include information from which the identity of an individual has been definitively removed (also known as anonymous or anonymized data).
We collect Personal Information directly from you when you provide it to us, such as when you take any action while visiting our Sites or otherwise communicate with us, verbally or in writing. We also may collect information indirectly through automated technologies, such as cookies, from third parties, or public records.

Although this information may be considered Personal Information under applicable laws, we do not append or associate it with any Personal Information you may choose to provide.
Some of this information may be collected using cookies and similar tracking technology, as explained further in our Cookie Notice Section below. We may also collect Personal Information through third-party sources, such as public records and recruitment agencies or entities.

In accordance with our routine record keeping, we may also delete certain records that contain Personal Information you have submitted through the Sites. We are under no obligation to store such Personal Information indefinitely and disclaim any liability arising out of, or related to, the destruction of such Personal Information. In addition, you should be aware that it is not always possible to completely remove or delete all your information from our databases without some residual data because of backups and other reasons.
Protecting Your Personal information
We use certain reasonable security measures to help protect your personal information or other information which we may obtain from your use of the Sites. However, no electronic data transmission or storage of information can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Please note that we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or other information which we may obtain from your use of the Sites, and you use the Sites and provide us with your information at your own risk.

California Residents
California residents may have certain rights regarding our collection and use of Personal Information under the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”), and other California privacy laws. For purposes of this “California Residents” Section (“Section”) the terms “Personal Information” and “Sensitive Personal Information” have the same meanings as defined under Cal. Civ. Code 1798.140(v) and (ae). To the extent that any other provision of this Privacy Policy conflicts with a provision of this Section, the provision in this Section controls as to California residents.
You understand that we are we providing this section of the Privacy Notice to California residents for informational purposes only, and as a courtesy to you. Nothing contained in this Privacy Notice shall be construed as us consenting to the application of California law to our Sites, nor to the jurisdiction of the state of California over Island Peži, or any of its parents, affiliates, directors, officers, employees, contractors, agents or assigns.
Collection and Purposes for Use of Personal Information
This section describes, for the past twelve months preceding the date this Privacy Policy was updated, (i) the categories of Personal Information collected and (ii) the business or commercial purpose(s) for which the Personal Information will be used. This section also serves as Notice at Collection of Personal Information.
Most of the categories of information described below are collected in connection with your use of the Sites. We do not sell your Personal Information. We do not share the Personal Information of California residents with third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not use or disclose Sensitive Personal Information other than for authorized business purposes. We or our service providers may collect the below categories of information for the purposes described in the Why We Use Personal Information Section above.
We may also use the information we collect for compliance with applicable laws and regulations or may combine the information we collect (“Aggregate”) or remove pieces of Personal Information (“De-Identify”) to limit or prevent identification of any particular user or device.
We will retain Personal Information for so long as necessary to accomplish the purpose for which it was collected. We may retain such Personal Information longer where so required by any applicable law.
Your Rights and Choices
If you are a California resident, you may have certain rights. California law may permit you to request that we:
- Provide you the categories of personal information we have collected or disclosed about you in the last twelve (12) months;
- Provide access to or a copy of certain information we hold about you; and
- Delete certain information we have about you.
You may have the right to receive information about the financial incentives that we offer to you, if any. You also have the right to not be discriminated against (as provided for in applicable law) for exercising certain of your rights.
Only you, or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable Consumer request related to your Personal Information. YOU WILL BE REQUIRED TO VERIFY YOUR IDENTITY BEFORE WE FULFILL ANY REQUEST. To designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf, you must provide us with written authorization or a power of attorney, signed by you, for the agent to act on your behalf. You will still need to verify your identity directly with us.
Certain information may be exempt from such requests under applicable law. For instance, we may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) for certain reasons. These reasons include (just to name a few):
- Completing the transaction for which the personal information was collected;
- Detecting security incidents, protecting against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecuting those responsible for such activities;
- Debugging products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality;
- Complying with a legal obligation; and
- Making other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.
If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please submit a request by contacting us by email at info@islandpezi.com. We endeavor to respond to a verifiable Consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to ninety (90) days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the twelve (12) month period preceding our receipt of the verifiable Consumer’s request. If applicable, the response we provide will
also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your Personal Information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance. If a request or series of requests are manifestly unfounded or excessive, we may charge a reasonable fee for processing the request(s) or may refuse to process the request(s).

Cookie Notice
Island Peži uses cookies and similar technologies on its Sites. You can find out about cookies and how to control them in the information below. This cookie notice (“Cookie Notice”) explains how we use cookies in connection with the Sites and your related choices.
If you do not accept the use of these cookies, please disable them by following the instructions in this Cookie Notice. This may affect your ability to use the Sites.
What Are Cookies, Generally?
Like most websites, we use cookies. Cookies do many different jobs, like letting you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, and generally improving the user experience.
A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. When you visit, access or use the Sites, we may – by means of cookies, beacons, tags, scripts, or similar technologies – automatically collect technical information. A cookie can generally be classified by its lifespan and the domain to which it belongs.
By lifespan, a cookie is either a session cookie, which is erased when the user closes the browser; or a persistent cookie, which remains on the user’s computer or device for a pre-defined period of time. Generally speaking, there are two types of domains to which cookies belong:
- First-party cookies are set by the web server of the visited page and share the same domain as the visited page; or
- Third-party cookies are stored by a different domain than the visited page’s domain. This can happen when, for example, our Sites references a file, such as JavaScript, located outside its domain.
How and Why We Use Cookies
The cookies that we use are essential to the proper functioning of the Sites and cannot be switched off in our system. These are known as “strictly necessary” cookies, and this includes cookies that capture and store users’ preferences, account settings, and certain login information (mainly for convenience, user verification, and account security). These cookies typically are set in response to actions made by you, such as a request for access to our Sites, setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms.
On our Website, we may use the following cookies:
- Cookies (or browser cookies);
- Flash Cookies. Certain features of our Website may use local stored objects (or Flash cookies) to collect and store information about your preferences and navigation to, from, and on our Website. Flash cookies are not managed by the same browser settings as are used for browser cookies. To learn how you can manage your Flash cookie settings, visit the Flash player settings page on Adobe’s website. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of the Website may then be inaccessible or not function properly; and
- Web Beacons. Pages of the Website and our e-mails may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs) that permit the Company, for example, to count users who have visited those pages or opened an email and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity).
Disabling Cookies
You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but because the cookies that we use are essential, if you do block them, some parts of the Sites will not work.
Changes to this Cookie Notice
Island Peži may update this Cookie Notice from time to time, at its sole discretion. If so, we will post an updated Cookie Notice on our Website. Changes, modifications, additions, or deletions will be effective immediately on their posting to the Website. We encourage you to review this Cookie Notice regularly for any changes. Your continued use of the Website or your continued provision of Personal Information to us after the posting of such notice will be subject to the terms of the then-current Privacy Notice and Cookie Notice. If you continue to use the Website, you will be deemed to have accepted the change.
Sovereign Status
Island Peži is a tribally chartered corporation and Tribal Entity of the Prairie Island Indian Community (“Tribe”), a federally recognized sovereign Indian tribe located within the boundaries of the United States. As a Tribal Entity, Island Peži shares in the immunities and privileges of the Tribe. Nothing in this Privacy Notice shall be construed as a waiver or abrogation of any such immunity or privilege, nor shall it be construed as consent to the jurisdiction of any state.
