Privacy Policy
How we handle the information families share with Muslim Scouts of America.
Last updated · July 2026
1. Overview
Muslim Scouts of America ("MSA," "we," "us," or "our"), located in Islamberg, Hancock, NY 13783, operates the website msajourney.com. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through the Website, how we use it, and the choices families have.
2. Information We Collect
When you submit an inquiry or contact form, we may collect:
- Parent or guardian first and last name
- Email address and phone number
- Scout's first name and age
- City and state
- Program interests and how you heard about MSA
- Any questions or comments you choose to include
Please share only the information requested. Do not submit sensitive details such as medical, financial, or identification numbers through the Website.
3. Information About Children
Because our programs serve youth, forms may include limited information about a scout, such as a first name and age. This information is intended to be provided by a parent or legal guardian, and by submitting it you confirm you have the authority to do so. We do not knowingly collect information directly from children through the Website, and we collect no more information about a scout than is needed to respond to your inquiry.
4. How We Use Information
We use the information you provide to:
- Respond to your inquiry and answer questions about MSA
- Share information about programs, events, and next steps
- Send program updates, if you have asked to receive them
- Maintain internal records of inquiries and improve our outreach
We do not sell, rent, or trade your information.
5. How Information Is Shared
Information is accessible only to authorized MSA leadership and volunteers who need it to respond to your inquiry. We may use trusted service providers — such as our website hosting, database, and email delivery providers — who process information on our behalf and are expected to keep it confidential. We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect the safety of participants.
6. Data Security and Retention
Inquiry information is stored in a protected, access-controlled database and is transmitted over encrypted connections. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect the information families share. We keep inquiry records only as long as needed for the purposes described above or as required by law.
7. Photographs
The Website displays photographs from MSA activities. If you would like a photograph reviewed or removed, please contact us and we will address your request.
8. Cookies and Website Data
The Website may use essential cookies and similar technologies needed for the site to function, such as maintaining an administrator's signed-in session. You can control cookies through your browser settings, though some features may not work correctly if they are disabled.
9. External Links
The Website may link to other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites, and we encourage you to review their policies.
10. Your Choices
You may ask us to review, correct, or delete the information you submitted, or ask to stop receiving updates, at any time by emailing info@msajourney.com.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updates take effect when posted to this page, and the "Last updated" date above will reflect the change.
