The campaign cares about your privacy rights, and about providing you with
the information you need in order to protect them. Accordingly, we've created
this policy to explain our privacy practices. This applies to www.yesforparkslex.com only.
We may revise and update this policy if our practices change, if we add new
features to the site, or if we change existing ones that affect these practices.
We may also modify this policy if we find better ways to inform you of products
or services that we think will be of interest. You should refer back to this page
often for the latest information.
We collect a variety of personal information about those who register on our
site, make contributions through our site or use other functions or features on
the site. Personal information is information that can be directly associated
with a specific person or entity such as a name, address, telephone number,
credit card information, bank account information, e-mail address, or
information about activities that are directly linked to that person.
We collect information you give us when you register on our site, contact us or
make an online contribution. For example, when making a contribution, in
addition to providing us your name, address, occupation and name of
employer, you will need to provide us a billing address and credit card or bank
account information, and answer a series of brief questions to make sure we
may legally accept your contribution.
You may make changes to the information you have provided by visiting any
form throughout the yesforparkslex.com site. You may also contact us
at info@yesforparkslex.com with any questions or changes to your
account.
Automatically Collected Information: We automatically receive certain types of
information whenever you interact with us online. For example, when you visit
our site, our systems automatically collect your IP address and the type ofbrowser you use. Information may be automatically collected through the use
of “cookies” (more information below). We also collect “clickstream” data
about your use of the site.
We employ a variety of physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to
guard your personal information. For example, we use commercially
reasonable tools and techniques to protect against unauthorized access to our
systems. Also, we restrict access to personal information about you to those
employees who need to know that information to provide services to you. In
addition, we work to protect the security of your personal information by using
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input
and allows you to view your information in a secure manner.
You should be aware that we have no control over the security of other sites
on the Internet you might visit, interact with, or from which you buy products or
services. Further, we store the personal information we collect from you
behind a secure firewall and place the transaction site on a secure server.
Text messaging originator opt-in data will not be shared with any third party,
except: (1) with vendors, consultants and other service providers who need
access to such information to carry out work on our behalf (and who will not
use such information for their own purposes); or (2) if we believe disclosure is
required by any applicable law, rule, or regulation or to comply with law
enforcement or legal process.
Information about our donors and website visitors is one of our most important
assets and therefore we keep it confidential. Personal information is made
available to others for the following, limited purposes:
To Comply with Campaign Finance Laws. We are often required to disclose
information regarding our contributions to comply with campaign finance laws.
For example, federal law requires us to use our best efforts to collect and
report the name, mailing address, occupation and name of employer of
individuals whose contributions aggregate in excess of $200 in a calendar
year.
To Carry Out Your Requests. We also may be required to disclose personal
information in order to carry out your requests when you use the site. Forexample, we will share personal information with third parties as necessary to
complete a donation transaction or to deliver an e-mail to someone you have
identified or when we disclose your return address as part of the service.
To Protect You and Ourselves. We release personal information when we
believe release is appropriate to comply with the law (e.g., a lawful subpoena),
to protect our rights or property, or to protect our donors and supporters from
fraudulent, abusive, or unlawful conduct, or if we reasonably believe that an
emergency involving immediate danger of death or serious physical injury to
any person requires disclosure of communications or justifies disclosure of
records without delay.
To Support Democratic Candidates and Organizations. We may disclose
selected personal information (other than credit card information, bank
information, or mobile phone numbers) to other campaigns and organizations
that we believe are like-minded or that we believe you may wish to hear from.
