Privacy Policy

What We Collect, and What We Do Not

One Form, and Nothing Else

There is one form on this site, on the contact page. It asks for a name, a ZIP code, an email address, an optional phone number, and whatever you want to say to us. Nothing else on any page asks you for anything. There is no sign-up box, no newsletter to join, no account to create, and nothing that has to be filled in before a page will show you what is on it. Reading these pages hands us nothing about you.

The Only Thing We Hold

What we hold is what you chose to send us. If you use the contact form, we then have your name, your email address, the ZIP code you gave, your phone number if you added one, and anything else you wrote. The ZIP code is there so we can tell whether a volunteer organization operates near you; it is used for nothing else. Nothing further reaches us, because there is nowhere else on this site to enter anything.

After You Write to Us

The form sends your message to our mailbox as an email. This website keeps no copy of it and has no database behind it. We read what arrives and we answer it. The message stays in the mailbox it came to, so the conversation you started can be picked up where it left off. It joins no list, which means there is nothing for you to unsubscribe from later. If you would rather we delete what you sent, write and say so, and we will.

Cookies and Tracking

This site runs no advertising cookies and no third-party analytics, and it sets no cookies of its own. The one thing it stores in your browser is a note that you closed the banner at the top of the page, so that it stays closed. That note never leaves your browser, is never sent to us, and disappears when you clear your browsing data.

The web host keeps the ordinary records any server keeps in order to deliver a page, and those records are not used to identify you or to follow you anywhere else. To keep automated spam off the contact form, the server also notes briefly that a message was sent from your connection. That note is a one-way scrambled value, it cannot be turned back into an address, and it expires within an hour. If any measurement is ever added to this site, this page will describe it.

Sites We Link To

Some pages link out to official election sites, such as vote.gov (opens in a new tab) and votetexas.gov (opens in a new tab). Those sites are run by public bodies and set their own privacy terms. A link from us is not a connection between them and Faith Votes USA, and it is not an endorsement by them of anything here.

Changes to This Policy

This describes the site as it stands at launch: one contact form, no measurement, and no list. If anything else is added later, this page is updated to say so, and the update is written in the same plain terms as the rest of it. Questions about any of this go to the contact page.

Things We Will Never Do

We do not sell, rent, trade, or otherwise hand over information about the people who write to us. No advertising network receives anything from this site. We will not build a list out of the people who get in touch, and we will not use what you send for anything other than answering you.
