6. Public Submissions and Editorial Coverage
Materials submitted specifically for public coverage may be published. These may include biographies, professional links, images, event details, and contact information expressly provided for public use.
Published information may be indexed by search engines, shared by readers, or remain accessible in editorial archives.
Do not include private information in materials intended for publication.

7. Newsletter Communications
When you subscribe, we use your subscription information to deliver the Jersey City Art newsletter and manage your preferences.
Our email delivery tools may process subscription status, delivery records, and interaction information, such as email opens or link clicks, depending on the settings enabled. Open measurements may be affected by email privacy features and may not accurately reflect individual activity.
You can unsubscribe using the link included in a newsletter or by emailing info@jersey-city-art.com.
We may retain a limited suppression record to honor your unsubscribe request and prevent your address from being inadvertently added again.

We may disclose information as necessary to service providers supporting:
- Website hosting and maintenance.
- Forms and website functionality.
- Newsletter delivery and communications.
- Security, spam prevention, and troubleshooting.

Information may also be disclosed to professional advisers, where required by law, to protect legal rights or safety, or with your authorization.
Information intended for publication is disclosed publicly as described in this Policy.
If operation of Jersey City Art is transferred or reorganized, relevant records may be transferred subject to applicable law and appropriate privacy protections.
9. Data Retention
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including managing communications and subscriptions, maintaining editorial records, meeting legal requirements, and resolving disputes.
Retention depends on the type and sensitivity of information, the purpose of processing, the ongoing relationship, and applicable obligations.
Published editorial materials may remain available as an archive, subject to applicable rights and legal requirements.

No method of internet transmission or electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
