Last updated November 2026

Who we are

Gainesville Business Collective (“we,” “us”) organizes Gainesville Business & Real Estate Professionals and She Means Business networking events in Gainesville, Florida. Questions about this policy can be sent through our contact page.

What we collect

When you fill out our contact or invite-list form, we collect the information you provide, such as your name, email address, phone number (optional), business or role, the gatherings you're interested in, and your message. Like most websites, our site and hosting provider may also collect basic technical information such as your browser type and pages visited.

How we use it

We use your information to send calendar invitations for the gatherings you choose, reply to your messages, follow up about speaking or sponsorship inquiries, and share occasional updates about our communities. You can ask to be removed from our invite list at any time.

How we share it

We do not sell your personal information. We use trusted service providers to run this website, our forms, and our event calendar, and they process information on our behalf. Calendar invitations are sent through Google Calendar.

Event photos

We sometimes take photos at our gatherings and share them on this website and our social media. If you'd prefer not to be photographed, or would like a photo of you removed, let us know through our contact page.

Your choices

You can ask us to update or delete your information, or to remove you from our invite list, by reaching out through our contact page.

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last changed.
