This Privacy Policy explains the information that Sanjay Narayan for State Representative (“the Campaign,” “we,” or “us”) collects, uses, shares, and discloses with respect to your use of our website (sanjayfortexas.com) and any related mobile applications or services. We reserve the right to change the terms of this Policy at any time for any reason. Please review this Policy from time to time to make sure you understand it and any changes.

1. What is Personal Information?

For purposes of your use of our website and any campaign mobile applications, “Personal Information” means information that specifically identifies an individual, such as your name, address, telephone number, cell phone number, email address, and any other identifier when combined with your online activities in a way that enables identification.
Personal Information does not include aggregate, de-identified, or anonymized data about usage of our website or application, or statistics about groups or categories of users, from which identifying information has been removed.

2. Information Collected Automatically

When you access or use our website or mobile app, we may automatically collect information about your computer, mobile device or usage of our services. This information may include:

Your device’s unique identifier;
Your device’s geographic location while the app is actively running;
Your computer’s or device’s IP address;
Technical information about your device (browser, operating system, version, etc.);
Your preferences and settings (time zone, language, privacy preferences, etc.);
The URL of the last webpage you visited before ours;
The links, buttons or ads you clicked on;
How long you used our website or app, and which features you used;
Whether the application is online or offline, and status of sessions.

3. Information You Provide

Whenever you voluntarily submit Personal Information through publicly-viewable parts of our website (for example, signing up for updates, donating, or submitting contact information), that information may be visible to others and may be collected and used by them. We cannot control what other users may do with information you voluntarily post, so we encourage discretion.

You may also provide additional information about yourself (for example, your interests, biography, mailing address, phone number) as part of registration, volunteering, surveys, or donation processes. This information may be used by us consistent with this Policy and will be treated as confidential Personal Information unless otherwise specified.

If you wish to have us delete your account information, please contact us at info@sanjayfortexas.com and request deletion.

4. Information About Others

If you provide contact information (for example, addresses, phone numbers) of other people (for example in a referral or advocacy context), you represent that you have the right to share that information with us, and you consent to the collection, storage and use of that information by us. We may also access your contact list/address book via the application (where allowed by device settings) to identify supporters or contacts. You may revoke your consent via device settings, by deleting your profile, or by uninstalling the application.

5. How We Use Your Information

We may use your Personal Information and other information we collect to:

Provide, support and improve our website, mobile application and campaign services;
Send you updates, alerts, newsletters, and campaign-related communications;
Customize content, offers or communications to your interests;
Understand how supporters use our website or app and analyze usage and trends;
Diagnose problems and fix technical issues.

6. Geo-Location Information

If you use our mobile app (if any) and enable location services, we may track your device’s geographic location while the app is running in order to provide location-based updates, events, or features. You may disable location tracking via your device settings.

7. Use of Your Information by Others

Legal Matters: We may disclose any information about you if required to comply with law, court order, subpoena, to investigate or report illegal activity, or to enforce our rights.
With Your Consent: If you consent to the sharing of certain information (for example when you opt-in to a partner communication), we may share that information consistent with your consent.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of any third-parties. Before you share information with another organization, we encourage you to review their privacy policy.

We encourage you to contact us before resorting to litigation.

Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms shall be settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association, in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules in effect at the time. The arbitration shall be held in Travis County (or another county designated by the Campaign) in the State of Texas.

These Terms and the materials referenced in them constitute the entire agreement between you and the Campaign with respect to the website and services and supersede all prior communications and proposals (whether oral, written or electronic). If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid under applicable law, that provision shall be deemed limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that the remainder of the Terms remains in full force and effect. The failure of either party to enforce any right under these Terms shall not be deemed a waiver of that right.
These Terms are personal to you. You may not assign, transfer or sublicense them without our prior written consent. The Campaign may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights and obligations under these Terms without your consent, and we will provide notice of such assignment via email, website posting or other written notice.
