Introduction

Marathi Vishwa NJ (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to protecting the privacy and security of our members’ personal information. This policy outlines how we collect, store, and use your information and explains your rights and choices.

Collection and Use of Information

We collect personal information as part of the membership process, event registrations, and interactions on our platforms, including name, email address, phone number, and payment details. This information is used strictly for communication, event coordination, and organization activities.

Payment Information and No-Show Fee Policy

For annual membership, credit card information is securely stored and maintained by our payment partner, Tugoz, in compliance with industry-standard data security protocols. This secure storage is used specifically to charge no-show fees, as communicated at the time of your registration, for certain confirmed Marathi Vishwa events where a member fails to attend without timely notice. Marathi Vishwa does not store any credit card information directly.
