Privacy Policy
Effective date: October 12, 2026
Welcome to the Bundy Club! This policy explains what information we collect when you use bundyclub.com and the Bundy Club app for iPhone and Android (together, the “Service”), why we collect it, and the choices you have. The Bundy Club is a Married with Children fan community and membership network run by Brian Messenlehner in New Jersey, USA (“we,” “us,” or “our”).
The short version: we collect what we need to run the community, process your membership and shop orders, and keep things working. We do not sell or rent your personal information. Ever.
1. Information we collect
Information you give us
- Account and profile details: your name, username, email address, password, profile photo, cover photo, and any profile fields you fill in.
- Community content: posts, activity updates, comments, group posts, photos, videos, reactions, friend connections, and private messages.
- Membership and shop orders: your billing name, billing and shipping address, phone number (if given), order history, and membership level. Card and PayPal payments are handled directly by Stripe and PayPal. We never see or store your full card number.
- Contact and support requests: what you send through our contact form, such as your name, email, contact reason, subject, message, order number, device details, and any screenshot you upload.
- Zoom events: if you join a live watch party or event, your name, and your voice and video if you turn them on.
Information collected automatically
- Device and usage data: IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, pages you visit, links you click, referring pages, and the date and time of visits.
- Cookies and similar tools: see section 3.
- Badges and activity: the GamiPress badges, points, and membership levels you earn, plus counts like how many free views you have used.
Information from the Bundy Club app
- Push notification token: if you allow notifications, your device gets a token so we can send you alerts. You can turn notifications off anytime in your phone’s settings.
- Device information: device model, operating system version, app version, and basic diagnostic data to help us fix bugs.
- Photos and camera: only if you choose to upload a photo or video, and only the items you pick.
- We do not collect your precise location or your contacts.
2. How we use your information
- To create and run your account and profile.
- To show your posts, comments, and activity in the community.
- To process membership payments, shop orders, refunds, and shipping.
- To host Zoom events and share recordings with members.
- To award badges and membership levels.
- To send email and push notifications, such as replies, messages, friend requests, order updates, and account notices. You can change most of these in your account notification settings.
- To send occasional news and updates. You can unsubscribe at any time.
- To answer support requests.
- To understand how the Service is used and make it better.
- To measure our ads on Facebook and Instagram (see section 4).
- To keep the Service safe, prevent spam and fraud, and enforce our Terms.
- To follow the law.
3. Cookies and analytics
Cookies are small files saved by your browser. We use them to:
- Keep you logged in and remember your settings (needed for the site to work).
- Run the shop, such as remembering your cart.
- Count views for visitors who are not logged in.
- Analytics: we use Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager to see which pages are popular and how people find us. Google may collect your IP address and device data. Learn more at policies.google.com/privacy or opt out with the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.
- Advertising measurement: see the Meta Pixel section below.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block essential cookies, logging in and checkout may not work.
4. The Meta (Facebook) Pixel and advertising
We use the Meta Pixel, and Meta’s Conversions API through our shop, to measure how well our ads on Facebook and Instagram work and to show our ads to people who might like the Bundy Club. When you visit our site, Meta may receive information such as the pages you view, items you add to your cart or buy, your IP address, browser data, and a cookie ID. For purchases, hashed (scrambled) contact details like your email may be sent so Meta can match the sale to an ad.
Meta uses this data under its own privacy policy. You can control ad personalization in your Facebook ad settings, through the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out, or by blocking third-party cookies in your browser.
We do not get paid for this data. We do not sell it. But some US state laws count this kind of ad tracking as “sharing” for “cross-context behavioral advertising.” See section 10 for how to opt out.
5. Who we share information with
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We share it only as needed to run the Service:
- Hosting and website tools: our web host and server providers, and WordPress plugins that run on our own site.
- Payments: Stripe and PayPal process payments.
- Merch fulfillment: Printful receives your name, shipping address, and order details to print and ship your order.
- Events: Zoom hosts our live events.
- App and notifications: AppPresser and Apple and Google notification services, to run the app and deliver push notifications.
- Email delivery: services that send our emails.
- Analytics and ads: Google and Meta, as explained above.
- Other members: content you post in the community is visible to others (see section 6).
- Legal reasons: if required by law, to protect someone’s safety, or to protect our rights.
- Business transfer: if the Bundy Club is ever merged or sold, your information may move to the new owner, who must honor this policy.
6. Your content is visible to the community
The Bundy Club is a community. Your username, profile photo, profile details, badges, membership level, posts, comments, and group activity can be seen by other members, and some of it may be visible to the public and search engines. Some member posts are made public as previews. Please do not post anything you want to keep private. Private messages are visible only to the people in the conversation, although our admins can access them to deal with abuse or legal requests.
Zoom events may be recorded. By joining, you agree that your name, voice, and video (if turned on) may be recorded and shared with members.
7. How long we keep information
- Account and profile data: as long as your account is open.
- Community content: until you delete it or your account is deleted. Copies may remain in backups for up to 90 days.
- Order and payment records: as long as tax and accounting laws require, usually up to 7 years.
- Support messages: up to 2 years.
- Analytics data: according to Google’s and Meta’s retention settings, usually 14 months or less for Google Analytics.
8. Deleting your account
You can ask us to delete your account and personal information at any time:
- On the website: use our contact form and choose “Account and Login Help” as the reason, or email support@bundyclub.com.
- In the app: go to the account or settings area and choose the option to delete your account, or open the contact form from the app.
We will confirm your request and delete your account, profile, and content within 30 days. Cancelling your account also cancels any membership renewals. We may keep some records we are legally required to keep, such as order history for taxes.
9. Children
The Bundy Club is for adults and is not meant for children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13, and you must be at least 18 to create an account. If you believe a child has given us information, contact us and we will delete it.
10. Your privacy rights (US residents)
Depending on where you live, including California, Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, Utah, Texas, Oregon, New Jersey, and other states, you may have the right to:
- Know what personal information we have about you and get a copy.
- Correct information that is wrong.
- Delete your information.
- Opt out of the “sale” of personal information, “sharing” for cross-context behavioral advertising, and targeted advertising.
- Not be treated differently for using these rights.
Do we sell or share? We do not sell your personal information for money and we never rent it. We also do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, except through the Meta Pixel and similar ad tools described in section 4, which some laws may treat as “sharing” or “targeted advertising.” To opt out, contact us through our contact form or email support@bundyclub.com with the subject “Do Not Share,” and also block third-party cookies in your browser. We honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signals as an opt-out request where the law requires it.
We do not use sensitive personal information to infer things about you.
To use any of these rights, contact us. We will need to confirm your identity, usually by matching the email on your account. You can also have an authorized agent contact us for you. We will respond within 45 days. If we deny your request, you can appeal by replying to our answer.
11. Visitors from the UK and European Union
If you are in the UK or EU, we process your information based on:
- Contract: to provide your account, membership, and orders.
- Legitimate interests: to run, secure, and improve the community.
- Consent: for marketing emails, push notifications, and non-essential cookies. You can withdraw consent at any time.
- Legal obligation: for tax and legal records.
You have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing of your data, to data portability, and to complain to your local data protection authority. Your information is stored and processed in the United States.
12. Security
We use reasonable safeguards to protect your information, including encrypted (HTTPS) connections, secure payment processors, and limited admin access. No system is perfectly secure, so please use a strong, unique password and keep it private.
13. Links to other sites
The Service links to sites like YouTube, Zoom, Facebook, and others. Their privacy practices are their own, so please check their policies.
14. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the effective date at the top. If the changes are significant, we will let members know by email, a site notice, or the app.
