Privacy Policy
We make every effort to ensure the privacy and security of information that you share with us online.

Our site links to a limited number of other websites. We are not responsible for the content or the privacy policies of those websites. We encourage you to read the privacy statements for each website you visit. We may occasionally update this privacy policy as we deem appropriate.

How do we protect your information?
Our website has a number of security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of the information under our control. Our computer systems have restricted access that is limited only to those persons and organizations necessary to our campaign’s and its computer systems’ proper functioning. This access applies to all electronic and physical security measures. Highly sensitive data, including credit-card information, is also secured through the use of encryption. Our servers are located in a locked, secure environment.

How do we use the information you provide?
We will use your e-mail address to provide you news and information about our efforts. We may use the information that you provide online to contact you for other purposes or to solicit contributions. When you register or sign up online, we may share your contact information with other organizations that share similar goals and objectives, and they may contact or solicit you.

When you contribute money online
We do not store your credit card information under any circumstances.

To comply with campaign-finance laws, we are required to disclose information regarding your contributions. For example, we are required to collect and report the name, mailing address, occupation, and name of employer of individual contributors. That information is required to be disclosed in filings that are made available to the public.

When you sign one of our petitions or other endorsement-type forms
We treat your name, city, state, and any comments as public information. We may, for example, disclose this information to public officials, the press, and the general public. We may also use the information that you provide to contact you for other purposes or to solicit contributions. We may share your email address and other contact information with other organizations that share similar goals and objectives.

Information we collect automatically
In partnership with third parties, we use various technologies to learn how visitors are using our websites, improve our websites, and customize your experience. This may include sending cookies (small data files) to your computer or mobile device. You may configure your device to limit or prevent access by cookies, such as to notify you when you receive a cookie, to block all cookies, or to delete existing cookies. We may also collect information using “web beacons” or “tracking pixels” (electronic images that may be used in our website or emails that deliver cookies, count visits, understand campaign effectiveness, and determine whether an email has been opened and acted upon).

Sharing of information
We may share information about you with vendors, consultants, and other service providers or volunteers who need access to such information to carry out work on our behalf. We may also share information when we believe in good faith that we are lawfully authorized or required to do so or that doing so is reasonably necessary or appropriate to comply with the law, including but not limited to responding to subpoenas, warrants, or court orders. We may also share information when we believe it is necessary to protect the rights, property, and safety of Miller for Georgia and our employees, volunteers, and others.

Information on children
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 regulations protect 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 sites to block our knowing acceptance of information from children under 13 whenever age-related information is requested. Parents with questions may contact us directly at info@millerforgeorgia.com.

How to Unsubscribe or Opt Out
You may opt out of receiving text messages, updates, and other communications by following the instructions in those messages or communications. If you opt out, we may still send you other types of emails, such as those about your use of our website or any donations or transactions. To comply with the law, our contributor records will not be altered and are continuously maintained in a separate database. 

Updates to our Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to update this policy. If we make updates, we will change the “last-updated date” above.
