Privacy Policy
How we handle your information
Last updated: July 24, 2026
1. Overview
Shutterpaws is a community of photographers and fursuiters who organize furmeet events. This policy explains what happens to information connected with our events and this website. It works alongside our Code of Conduct, which covers behavior expectations in more detail.
2. What Data We Store
This website’s pages are static, and we don’t embed analytics or advertising trackers or collect browsing data on visitors. However, we do offer optional accounts for RSVPing and event coordination. Information we handle includes:
- Account details: your email address, display name, and any Telegram or Discord accounts you link. Your email is used to send sign-in links, and may also be used to send transactional messages related to your account, such as RSVP confirmations or payment reminders. We will never send you opt-in communications, such as newsletters or general updates, without your explicit consent.
- Event RSVPs and attendance history, tied to your account, used to coordinate events and communicate with attendees.
- Event payments, made online at checkout or in person via PayPal Point of Sale (POS), linked to your RSVP and account so we can track who has paid. Your payment card details are handled directly by PayPal and are not stored on Shutterpaws systems.
- Contact form and email submissions, used only to respond to your inquiry.
You can sign in and manage your account, including your display name and linked platforms, on the My Account page.
3. Copyright and Ownership
Content published through Shutterpaws (including event write-ups, graphics, and other materials) remains the property of its creator. Unless stated otherwise, please assume all rights are reserved and ask before reusing, editing, or redistributing it.
