Respect MO Voters Privacy Policy

Respect MO Voters 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 RespectMOVoters.org, the Respect MO Voters group on ActionNetwork.org, and other platforms and tools of the Respect MO Voters campaign.

We may revise and update this policy if our practices change, if we add new features, 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.

Information Collected About You

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, email address, or information about activities that are directly linked to that person.

We collect information you give us when you register on our sites, contact us, or make an online contribution. For example, when making a contribution, in addition to providing us your name, address, occupations and name of employer, you will need to provide us with 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 linked to from the RespectMOVoters.org site. You may also contact us team@respectvoters.org with any questions or changes to your account.

Network And Information Security

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 people who need to know that information to provide services to you, and those people are first required to sign our legally binding Confidentiality Pledge as part of our Excellence Pledge. 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.

Disclosure Of Personal Information

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.

We keep information about our donors confidential. Personal information is made available to others for the following, limited purposes:

• 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 and other platforms and tools of the campaign. For example, we will share personal information with third parties as necessary to complete a donation transaction or to deliver an email 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.

Web Beacons

We may collect information using Web beacons. Web beacons are electronic images that may be used in our emails to tell if an email has been opened and acted upon.

Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act

We do not knowingly, directly or passively, collect information from children under the age of 13. To respect the privacy of children and to comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, children under the age of 13 should not provide any Personal Information on this or any other site, platform, or tool of the Respect MO Voters campaign. We ask that parents supervise their children while online.

Links To Other Sites

Please be aware that we may provide links to third-party websites, including those sites maintained by other organizations and news media outlets, as a service to our visitors. We are not responsible for the content or information collection practices of those sites. Please note that these sites’ privacy policies may differ from ours. We encourage you to review and understand their privacy practices before providing them with information.

Updating This Policy

We may revise or update this policy if our practices change, as we change existing or add new features or as we develop better ways to inform you of features we think will be of interest. You should refer back to this page often for the latest information. If we decide to change this policy, we will post a new policy on our sites and change the date at the top of the policy.
