Privacy Policy
Collection of your Personal Information
There are several places on our web site where we may ask for your name, address, telephone number, email address, interests and other information. We use the information you provide to send you the latest news and updates.
We work closely with national, state, and local Democratic committees and candidates, and we may share some basic contact information with them, and they may contact you. In addition, we may contact you on behalf of some other like-minded organizations, but we do not share your contact information with them.
When you sign one of our petitions or endorsements: We treat your name, city, state, and any comments as public information. We may, for example, provide compilations of petitions, with your comments, to national leaders, without disclosing email addresses. We may also make comments along with your city and state available to the press and public online.
When you contribute money online: Under election law, we are required to make periodic filings that provide the Secretary of State's office with information on each contributor who gives more than $200 in a calendar year: name, address, amount of contribution, date of contribution, employer, occupation, employer city, and employer state. We collect and disclose this information, and we also request other information to verify the legality of your contribution.
We will never sell or give your contact information to any business or commercial entity.
