PRIVACY POLICY
1. Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains what information of yours will be collected by California Common Good (CCG) when you use our website and online services, how the information will be used, and how you can control the collection, correction and/or deletion of information. We will not use or share your information with anyone except as described in this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy does not apply to information we collect by other means (including offline) or from other sources.
2. Information We Collect
User-Provided Information: You provide us information about yourself, such as your name and email address, if you sign up using a form on our site. If you correspond with us by email, we may retain the content of your email messages, your email address and our responses
3. Third Party Services
CCG uses The Action Network, Meta, NationBuilder, and other services to organize our community of supporters. You can read more about those companies and their features on their respective websites. When you visit cacommongood.com, services associated with the campaign and our website may send one or more cookies – a small text file containing a string of alphanumeric characters – to your computer that uniquely identifies your browser. A cookie does not collect personal information about you. You can reset your web browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some features of cacommongood.com may not function properly if the ability to accept cookies is disabled.
4. How We Use Your Information
We use the personal information you submit to operate, maintain, and provide to you the features and functionality of acceaction.org. By providing CCG your email address or phone number (“the contact information”), you consent to our using the contact information to send you messages such as newsletters and fundraising requests. If you do not want to receive such email messages, you may opt-out using the links in the footer of such messages or responding “Stop.”
5. How We Share Your Information
Personally Identifiable Information: CCG will not rent or sell your personally identifiable information to others. CCG may share your personally identifiable information with third parties for the purpose of providing acceaction.org services to you. If we do this, such third parties’ use of your information will be bound by this Privacy Policy. We may store personal information in locations outside the direct control of CCG (for instance, on servers or databases co-located with hosting providers).
Except as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy, CCG will not disclose personal information to any third party unless required to do so by law or subpoena or if we believe that such action is necessary to (a) conform to the law, comply with legal process served on us or our affiliates, or investigate, prevent, or take action regarding suspected or actual illegal activities; (b) to enforce this policy, take precautions against liability, to investigate and defend ourselves against any third-party claims or allegations, to assist government enforcement agencies, or to protect the security or integrity of our site; and (c) to exercise or protect the rights, property, or personal safety of CCG staff, our users or others
5. How We Protect Your Information
CCG cares about the integrity and security of your personal information and uses SSL where possible. We cannot, however, ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to CCG or guarantee that your information on the service may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards. Your privacy settings may also be affected by changes to the functionality of third-party providers, such as social networks. CCG is not responsible for the functionality or security measures of any third party.
6. Compromise of Personal Information
In the event that personal information is compromised as a result of a breach of security, CCG will promptly notify those persons whose personal information has been compromised, in accordance with the notification procedures set forth in this Privacy Policy, or as otherwise required by applicable law.
7. Your Choices About Your Information
You may, of course, decline to submit personally identifiable information through cacommongood.com, in which case CCG may not be able to provide certain services to you.
8. Children’s Privacy
Protecting the privacy of young children is especially important. For that reason, CCG does not knowingly collect or solicit personal information from anyone under the age of 13. If you are under 13, please do not send any information about yourself to us, including your name, address, telephone number, or email address. No one under age 13 is allowed to provide any personal information to or on acceaction.org. In the event that we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under age 13 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information as quickly as possible.
9. Links to Other Websites
We are not responsible for the practices employed by websites linked to or from cacommongood.com nor the information or content contained therein. Please remember that when you use a link to go from acceaction.org to another website, our Privacy Policy is no longer in effect. Your browsing and interaction on any other website, including those that have a link on our website, is subject to that website’s own rules and policies. Please read over those rules and policies before proceeding.
10. Notification Procedures
It is our policy to provide notifications, whether such notifications are required by law or are for organizing purposes, to you via email notice, written or hard copy notice, or through conspicuous posting of such notice on cacommongood.com, as determined by CCG in its sole discretion. We reserve the right to determine the form and means of providing notifications to you, provided that you may opt out of certain means of notification as described in this Privacy Policy.
11. Changes to Our Privacy Policy
If we change our privacy policies and procedures, we will post those changes on cacommongood.com to keep you aware of what information we collect, how we use it and under what circumstances we may disclose it. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
