Temple Sinai of North Dade
Website Privacy Policy
Effective date: August 26, 2026 · Last updated: August 26, 2026
Temple Sinai of North Dade (“Temple Sinai,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects the privacy of everyone who visits our website at www.tsnd.org (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.
Information We Collect
We collect information in two ways: information you give us directly, and information that is collected automatically when you visit the Site.
Information you provide to us.
When you fill out a form, make a donation, register for an event, or sign up for our email list, you may provide information such as:
- Your name, email address, phone number, and mailing address;
- Event or program registration details;
- Donation information you submit through our online giving tool (payment card details are processed by our payment provider and are not stored by Temple Sinai — see “Third-Party Services” below);
- Any message or information you choose to include when you contact us.
Information collected automatically.
Like most websites, our Site automatically collects certain technical information when you visit, including your IP address, browser type, device information, the pages you view, and how you arrived at and move through the Site. We collect this information using cookies and similar technologies, described below.
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device to help it function and to understand how visitors use it. Some cookies last only for your current visit (“session cookies”); others remain on your device until they expire or you delete them (“persistent cookies”). Our Site uses the following types of cookies:
- Necessary cookies — required for the Site to work properly, such as remembering your progress during the online donation process. The Site cannot function correctly without these.
- Preference cookies — remember choices you make so the Site can be more convenient on your next visit.
- Analytics cookies — we use Google Analytics, a web-analytics service provided by Google LLC, to understand how visitors find and use our Site so we can improve it. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information such as pages visited, time spent on the Site, and general location (city/region level). This information is aggregated and helps us see overall trends; we do not use it to identify individual visitors.
Managing cookies. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. You can also opt out of Google Analytics across all websites by installing Google’s official opt-out browser add-on, available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. Disabling cookies may affect how some parts of the Site function.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your questions, requests, and messages;
- Process donations and send acknowledgments or receipts;
- Register you for events and programs and send related information;
- Send our newsletter and communications to those who have signed up (you can unsubscribe at any time);
- Understand and improve how our Site is used;
- Maintain the security and proper functioning of the Site.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to anyone.
Third-Party Services
We rely on a small number of trusted service providers to operate the Site. These providers process information only as needed to provide their services and are governed by their own privacy policies:
- Google Analytics (website analytics);
- Our online donation provider (processes donations and payment information securely);
- Our email/newsletter provider (delivers communications to subscribers).
We may also disclose information if required by law, or to protect the rights, safety, or property of Temple Sinai, our members, or others.
Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the information collected through our Site. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children’s Privacy
Our Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the Site. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to remove it.
Your Choices
- You can unsubscribe from our emails at any time using the link at the bottom of any message;
- You can adjust or disable cookies through your browser, or opt out of Google Analytics as described above;
- You may contact us to ask what information we hold about you, or to request that we correct or delete it.
Links to Other Websites
Our Site may contain links to other websites, such as our affiliated organizations or social media pages. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies.
Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting that signals websites not to track your browsing activity. There is currently no industry-standard way for websites to respond to these signals, so our Site does not respond to Do Not Track requests at this time. You can still control tracking through the cookie and Google Analytics options described above.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. We encourage you to review this page periodically.

Note for review: bracketed items ([ ]) are placeholders to confirm before publishing. This is a practical, plain-language policy intended to disclose the Site’s use of Google Analytics and cookies and to reflect current data practices; it is not legal advice. If Temple Sinai actively serves visitors in the EU or California, consider having counsel review it.
