RNSYS Values Your Privacy
RNSYS is committed to protecting the privacy, confidentiality, accuracy and security of your personal information. Whether we collect, use, retain or disclose your personal information in the course of conducting business, you can rest assured that we will only do so in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Personal Information Collected by RNSYS
In building a lasting relationship with you, and in order to provide you with the valued products and services that you desire, we require specific personal information. Such information varies depending on the products or services purchased or utilized by you. We define "personal information" as information - oral, electronic, or written - about an identifiable individual, including, but not limited to: name, address, telephone number, age, gender, photograph, basic employment information, identification numbers and credit or banking information.

Why RNSYS Collects Your Personal Information
During the course of our relationship with you, we may collect, use and disclose your personal information for the following reasons: to identify you, to confirm your application or membership information; to provide you with ongoing products and services, establish and maintain communication, and respond to your inquiries; to offer you additional products and services; to provide you with information that we believe you may find of interest; to promote products and services to you from business partners with whom we have an association; to meet legal and statutory requirements;  banquet or wedding coordinator or any other person, firm, corporation or enterprise, as may be reasonably necessary for the purposes already stated.

You can take comfort in knowing that our use of your personal information is always in a manner consistent with applicable laws. Should we need to use your personal information for purposes other than those already listed, we will explain the purpose to you and obtain your consent - before we use it. Please note that we do not collect, use or disclose your personal information unless we have your consent or unless it is done so in accordance with our Privacy Policy. And, we do not sell your personal information.

Only authorized personnel have access to your information and our systems and procedures are designed to prevent the loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of your personal information. We retain your information only as long as is required for the purposes for which it was collected and to meet any legal requirements.

Your Rights Regarding Your Personal Information
As a valued RNSYS member/client, you have the right to access your personal information and request changes at any time. It is your legal right to choose not to provide us with some or all of your personal information, or to deny us the use or disclosure of your information for certain purposes. Should you exercise this right, we will not unreasonably withhold any requested products or services. However, certain basic information must be provided in order to supply most requested products or services.

By providing your consent for us to collect, use and disclose your personal information, we are better able to provide you with personalized products and services. This may include, but is not limited to, special product and service offerings, contests, league events, new discounts and promotions.

Limiting The Use of Your Personal Information
If you would prefer not to receive further service and product information and instead are content to limit your personal information use to the current RNSYS product and service offerings utilized by you, please let us know by sending us an email or dropping a letter in the mailbox. However, if you wish to be able to receive service and product information, simply do nothing and we will be able to use your personal information to share ideas about RNSYS products and services that we feel may be of benefit to you.
