Privacy Policy

Last Updated: March 24, 2026

At treasurecoast.com, operated by Treasure Coast Group LLC, one of our main priorities is the privacy of our visitors. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of information we collect and how we use it in compliance with the Florida Information Protection Act (FIPA) and applicable U.S. privacy standards.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information to provide better services to our local community and business partners.

Information You Provide: When you register for an account, create a listing, or contact us, we collect personal information such as your name, company name, address, email address, and telephone number.

User-Generated Content: If you upload photos or descriptions for listings, we collect that content and any associated metadata.

Sensitive Data: We do not intentionally collect “sensitive data” (e.g., biometric data, precise geolocation, or religious beliefs) unless it is voluntarily provided in a public listing you create.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Operate and maintain the treasurecoast.com directory and media platform.

  • Process and monetize business listings as requested by users.

  • Communicate with you regarding site updates, marketing, and customer service.

  • Analyze site traffic to improve local user experience.

  • Detect and prevent fraudulent listings or unauthorized use of our platform.

3. Data Retention & Deletion

In accordance with updated Florida data standards:

Retention Period: We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, or for a maximum of two years after your last interaction with our platform, unless a longer period is required by law.

Right to Deletion: You may request the deletion of your account and associated personal data at any time by contacting us at media@treasurecoast.com.

4. Cookies and Automated Tracking

We use “cookies” and log files to track visitor preferences and optimize site performance.

Log Files: These include IP addresses, browser types, and time stamps. This data is not linked to personally identifiable information.

Advertising Partners: Our partners, such as Google (DoubleClick DART), may use cookies to serve ads based on your visit to our site. You can opt out of targeted advertising via Google’s Ad Settings.

5. Third-Party Sharing

We do not sell your personal data to third parties for their independent marketing purposes. We only share information with third-party service providers (such as hosting partners or payment processors) necessary to operate our website, and these parties are contractually bound to protect your data.

6. Florida-Specific Disclosures (FIPA)

As a Florida-based entity, we comply with the Florida Information Protection Act. In the event of a data breach that compromises your personal information, we will notify you and the Florida Attorney General in accordance with statutory timelines.

7. Children’s Privacy

We do not knowingly collect Personal Identifiable Information from children under the age of 13. If you believe a child has provided such information on our site, please contact us immediately for prompt removal.
