Privacy Policy

Last Updated: May 23, 2026

Welcome to the DeMolay Worldwide Alumni & Friends Association ("the Association," "we," "us," or "our"). We are deeply committed to protecting the privacy, security, and confidentiality of our senior members, advisors, and global supporters. This Privacy Policy outlines our strict frameworks regarding how we collect, safeguard, and process information across our web architecture and exclusive networking channels, including the LinkLay portal.

1. Information We Collect

To deliver an optimized, authenticated experience across our directory loops, we may gather the following categories of data:

  • Profile Parameters: First name, last name, primary telephone contacts, physical addresses, original masonic chapter affiliations, and respective regional jurisdictions.
  • LinkLay Network Profiles: Professional designations, corporate entities, industry verticals, and public business communication coordinates voluntarily shared for career mentoring tracks.
  • System Security Data: Logged-in credentials, operational sync parameters mapped from verification queries, IP addresses, and standard session browser cookies required to uphold network lock protocols.

2. How We Use Information

The operational metrics collected are handled exclusively to advance our fraternal and professional networks. We process information to:

  • Verify and synchronize individual historical profile indexes securely against external eScribe database modules.
  • Maintain and operate the LinkLay enterprise directory grid, allowing verified alumni to locate, filter, and message peers securely.
  • Process secure dues tracking, manage transactional event coordinates, and route administrative support ticketing requests directly to designated association officers.

3. Data Protection Standards

Data privacy is a foundational pillar of our system. We implement robust, military-grade administrative, technical, and server-side defensive layouts to lock down your records:

We enforce "Blind Validation" architectures across our public portals. Public-facing locator files masking missing brothers hide full names and complete electronic contact logs behind protected, authenticated authorization walls, completely blocking automated scraping frameworks and malicious crawling scripts.

4. Third-Party Sharing Limits

We do not sell, trade, lease, or distribute your private contact vectors or professional records to corporate data brokers or external marketing agencies under any circumstances. Information is only communicated to verified transaction gateways (like our payment pipelines) or official administrative structures strictly required to authorize international membership standing.

5. Your Rights & Choices

Members retain complete sovereignty over their data footprints. By logging directly into your personal account hub dashboard space, you can:

  • Modify, update, or permanently delete your phone variables, corporate career details, or residential location coordinates.
  • Toggle your public directory listing preferences on or off within the internal tracking modules.
  • Opt-out or manage subscription parameters for system newsletters and regional event updates at any time.

6. Contact Administration

If you have any strategic compliance inquiries, framework suggestions, or operational data tracking questions regarding our platform architectures, please transmit an official message line directly through our unified ticketing dashboard page:
