Privacy Policy

How the campaign collects, uses, and protects your information.

The Committee to Elect Derek Muncy respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you share through this website and campaign communications.

Effective Date: [Month Day, Year]

1. Information We Collect

We may collect information you voluntarily provide to us, including your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, employer and occupation if provided in connection with a contribution, and any message or information you submit through contact forms, event registrations, volunteer forms, or email signups.

We may also collect certain information automatically when you use this website, including your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, referring website, date and time of access, and cookie or analytics data.

If you make a contribution, payment information may be collected and processed by a third-party payment processor or fundraising platform rather than directly by the campaign.

2. How We Use Information

We may use collected information to:

  • communicate with you about the campaign
  • respond to your questions or requests
  • send email updates, event invitations, volunteer opportunities, and campaign news
  • process donations and maintain campaign contribution records
  • comply with applicable election and campaign finance laws
  • improve the website, outreach, and campaign operations
  • protect the security and integrity of the website and campaign systems

3. Donations and Campaign Finance Compliance

If you make a contribution, we may collect and retain information necessary to process the donation, send confirmations, maintain records, and comply with applicable campaign finance and reporting requirements.

Certain contributor information may be required by law to be reported to election authorities and may become part of the public record.

4. Cookies and Analytics

This website may use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to improve site functionality, understand website traffic, and support campaign outreach.

You may be able to adjust your browser settings to refuse cookies or alert you when cookies are being used. Some parts of the website may not function properly if cookies are disabled.

5. Email, Text Messages, and Communications

If you sign up for updates, register for an event, volunteer, or otherwise provide your contact information, the campaign may send you campaign-related communications by email, phone, or text message, as permitted by law.

You may unsubscribe from campaign emails by using the unsubscribe link in the message. If you receive text messages from the campaign, you may opt out by replying STOP where applicable.

6. When We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share your information only as reasonably necessary with service providers who help operate the website or campaign communications, payment processors and fundraising platforms, email or text vendors, compliance vendors, legal or professional advisers, government agencies or election authorities when required by law, or other parties if necessary to protect legal rights, supporters, website security, or the public.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

This website may contain links to third-party websites, donation pages, social media platforms, or outside services. The campaign is not responsible for the privacy practices, security, or content of those third parties.

8. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to help protect personal information. However, no website, email transmission, or electronic storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.

9. Children’s Privacy

This website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the website. If we learn that such information has been collected without appropriate consent, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

10. Your Choices

You may contact the campaign to opt out of certain communications, update or correct your contact information, or ask questions about privacy practices.

We may retain certain information as necessary for legal compliance, campaign finance reporting, security, recordkeeping, and operational purposes.

11. Retention of Information

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to operate the campaign, comply with legal obligations, maintain records, resolve disputes, and enforce our policies.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. Continued use of the website after changes are posted means you accept the updated policy.
