Democrats for Values are committed to protecting your
privacy and security when visiting this website. Outlined below is
our online privacy policy. If you have questions about this policy,
please let us know.
Collection and disclosure of information:
We are continually trying to expand online activism and give
interested, eligible individuals the political information they need
in a timely manner. For this reason, we collect some information that
can be directly associated with a specific person. We call this
"Personal Information," and it includes, by way of illustration,
names, addresses, telephone numbers and e-mail addresses.
We collect Personal Information from eligible individuals who
affirmatively request to receive e-mail or other services from us. We
collect this Personal Information in order to provide these eligible
individuals with timely information via e-mail regarding political
events, resources and issues. We also collect Personal Information
from those who make online contributions to the campaign, in order to
process the contributions.
It is our general policy not to make Personal Information available to
anyone other than our employees, staff, and agents. We may
occasionally make personal information available to organizations with
similar political viewpoints and objectives, in furtherance of our own
political objectives. MyDomain.com hosts this Site, and, therefore, has
access to Personal Information in the course of their work with us.
MyDomain.com has its own, independent privacy and security policy related to
its information collection and use, however they will not use your
information in any way unless directed by Democrats for Values.
Opting out and modifying information:
Subscribers to our e-mail list may terminate their subscriptions by
emailing
info@democratsforvalues.com and entering "unsubscribe" in the
subject field, or may correct their personal
information providing updated information.
Browser information collected on the web site:
We log IP addresses, which are the locations of computers or
networks on the Internet, and analyse them in order to improve the
value of our site. We also collect aggregate numbers of page hits in
order to track the popularity of certain pages and improve the value
of our site. We do not gather, request, record, require, collect or
track any Internet users' Personal Information through these
processes.
We use cookies on our site. A "cookie" is a tiny text file that we
store on your computer to customize your experience and support some
necessary functions. We also use cookies to better understand how our
visitors use our site. Our cookies contain no Personal Information
and are neither shared nor revealed to other sites. We do not look
for or at other sites' cookies on your computer.
You also have choices with respect to cookies. By modifying your
browser preferences, you can accept all cookies, be notified when a
cookie is set, or reject all cookies. (For more information on how to

some or all cookies, your experience at our site and other sites
throughout the World Wide Web may not be complete. Also, you would be
unable to take advantage of personalized content delivery offered by
other Internet sites or by us.
We do not use "web beacons."
Privacy of our email lists:
As noted above, we maintain e-mail lists to keep interested, eligible
individuals informed about important topics, and individuals must
affirmatively request to join them. We configure our list server
software to refuse to divulge the email addresses of our list
subscribers to anyone other than those whom we authorize. However, we
are not the author of this software, and are not responsible for any
failures in the software to preserve subscriber anonymity.
Children's privacy:
Because we care about the safety and privacy of children online,
we comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998
(COPPA). COPPA and its accompanying FTC regulation establish United
States federal law that protects the privacy of children using the
Internet. We do not knowingly contact or collect personal information
from children under 13. Our site is not intended to solicit
information of any kind from children under 13, and we have designed
our site to block our knowing acceptance of information from children
under 13 whenever age-related information is requested. We would
remind parents that they have a duty to supervise the Internet
activities of their children.
It is possible that by fraud or deception we may receive information
pertaining to children under 13. If we are notified of this, as soon
as we verify the information, we will immediately obtain parental
consent or otherwise delete the information from our servers.
Security:
We maintain a variety of physical, electronic and procedural
safeguards to protect 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 to those who need such access in the course of
their duties for us.
In addition, we work to protect the security of your personal
information when transmitted via our site by using Secure Sockets
Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input. You
should know that we have no control over the security of other sites
on the Internet you might visit, interact with, or from which you
engage in financial transactions.
Your own efforts to protect against unauthorized access play an
important role in protecting the security of your personal
information. You should be sure to sign off when finished using a
shared computer, and always log out of any site when viewing personal
information.
We may have links to other, outside web sites that we do not control.
We are not responsible for the content or privacy policies of these
sites, and users should check those policies on such sites.
