Sun City Texas Community Association

Sun City Texas Community Association operates a website for its residents in Georgetown, Texas, which includes a private online resident directory. This directory contains personal information such as names, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses of the community members. The primary purpose of this directory is to facilitate communication and foster community bonds among the residents of this large retirement community. While access to the detailed directory is restricted to residents through a login, the public nature of a community association's web presence can still pose privacy risks. The aggregation of personal data in one place could be a target for bad actors attempting to gain unauthorized access for purposes of fraud, identity theft, or targeted scams against the senior population. To protect their information, residents should carefully manage their profile's privacy settings to hide any data they do not wish to share and can opt out of inclusion in the printed directory.
