Overview

Your privacy is important to the Schottmuller Campaign. We provide this Privacy Statement to inform you of our privacy policies and practices, including:

1. The types of information we may collect
2. Why we collect it
3. How we use that information
4. How you can exercise your choices as to how your information is used

This Privacy Statement is accessible from the bottom of each page on this website.

Personal Information

Personal information is information that identifies an individual personally, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and email address. We collect personal information in cases of volunteer sign-up, newsletter sign-up, and donations. We will never share, sell, or release any of your information.

We will only collect the personal information reasonably necessary to accomplish the purpose for which it is collected, and will retain it only as long as is reasonably necessary. At any time, if you wish to be removed from our email or mailing list, please contact us.

Cookies and Tracking Technology

Like most Web sites, our site may collect and log information automatically through the use of electronic tools that may be transparent to you. Information collected may include items such as your IP address, the type and version of your browser, the length of time that you visit our site, your screen resolution, the location that referred you to our web site and the average number of pages viewed. The primary purpose of gathering this information is to tally statistics on how our site is being used and how it might be improved.

In addition, in order to improve our site and your experiences with it, we may use "cookies" or other electronic means to track your visits. Cookies are simply small text files that our Web site can place on your computer's hard drive in order, for example, to collect information about your activities on the site or to make it possible for us to display relevant information to you based on interests that you submitted on your sign-up form. Our site's server, generally speaking, is the only computer that can read it.

Many consumers do not know that "cookies" are being placed on their computers when they visit most websites. Cookies cannot read data from your hard disk or read cookie files created by other websites, and they cannot infect your computer with viruses. If you want to know when this happens, or to prevent it from happening, you can set your browser to warn you when a Web site attempts to place a "cookie" on your computer. Please click on the "Help" menu of your browser for information on setting your cookie preferences. You can also read more about cookies and how they work at various online sources, including www.cookiecentral.com.

Links to Other Web Sites

Our site may provide links to third-party Web sites for your convenience and information. If you access those links, you will leave the Schottmuller Campaign web site. We do not control those sites or their privacy practices. Any information you provide to or through those sites is covered by the privacy policies of that site, not by this privacy statement. Please review the privacy policies of such sites before sharing your personal information.

Disclosures Required by Law

Please be aware that in certain circumstances, we may be required by law to disclose your personal information. We will make every reasonable effort to limit the disclosure to only that information which is necessary to comply with such law.

Contacting Us

If you wish to contact us about our privacy policies or to correct or delete information we may have about you, please contact us.

Changes to this Privacy Statement

We may change this Privacy Statement from time to time. If and when we do, we will post those changes to our website and update the revision date of this document, so you will always be aware of our privacy policies.
