How We Use Your Personal Data
We may process your personal data for the purposes outlined below:
- Operating the Services: We process your personal data to provide the Services you have requested.
- Services Security, Optimization, and Improvement: The Hall works to provide you with a secure and optimized experience engaging with our Services, and to improve our programs and services to advance our work more generally. To do this, we use your personal data for purposes such as website performance assessment and improvement, fraud detection, and to improve our services, products, and technologies.

- Marketing: We may use your information to send you news and newsletters, event updates, and to communicate with you about new features, offers, events, or products, or to otherwise contact you about information we think may be of interest to you.
- Fundraising. The Hall, as a nonprofit, needs donor support to enable its operations. To do this, we use your personal data to process your donations and solicit donations.
- Exercising our rights: We use your personal data to exercise our legal rights where it is necessary to do so, for example, to detect, prevent and respond to claims of fraud, intellectual property infringement claims or violations of law or our standards of conduct, or our terms of use.

We may use personal data we have collected — directly, automatically, or acquired from third parties — to compile, combine, and infer new information about you.
How We Disclose Your Personal Data
We may disclose any of the categories of personal data described above to the following categories of persons:
- Our service providers, including vendors, consultants, and other service providers who perform services or functions on our behalf, for business purposes. For example, our service providers include companies who support us with marketing, consulting, communications, software maintenance and support, web services, analytics, social media, market research, auditing, security, user verification, localization, and donation processing.
- Our business partners, such as event sponsors or partners, advertising, and marketing partners, and other third parties with whom you interact to facilitate your relationship with the Hall or for any of the purposes described in our or those business partners’ privacy policies. These business partners may include other nonprofit organizations.
