Privacy

Welcome to Lone Star Success, the official Website of Texans for Positive Economic Policy. We have developed this privacy policy to explain what information we might collect from you during your visit to our Website and why we collect it.

As part of our effort to provide you with up-to-date information, we may at times ask you to submit information such as your name, address, email address, and phone number. You are not obligated to divulge this information unless you choose to do so.

We sometimes provide this information to authorized third parties who provide services for us, such as managing our website, posting social media, and contacting our supporters via email. We require that such information only be used for very specific purposes, and we require assurances that they will appropriately protect personal information entrusted to them. We will also disclose information concerning you if we are required to do so by law or if we believe that such action is necessary to comply with a legal obligation or to protect and defend our rights or property, or those of others. We do not otherwise share or sell your information under any circumstances.

We are committed to maintaining the security of the information we receive through the Website, and we employ appropriate security measures to secure and protect that information.

Please note you can opt-out of receiving communications from us at any time, by using the contact information below or an unsubscribe link in an e-mail message from us.

Additional information about our privacy policy can be found below.

Contact Information

When you use one of our online contact forms, we receive the personal information you provide, such as:

  • Your name
  • Phone number
  • Email address
  • Zip code

We also make note of your expressions of interest in participation via these online forms.  We use this information only for ordinary purposes of this effort, such as to respond to your inquiries or to contact you regarding possible opportunities to participate or otherwise show your support. We will also periodically send you news and information that we believe may be of interest to you.

Cookies and Log Data

To better understand your preferences and to improve our Website, we may use and collect cookies and log information when you visit our Website.

We use cookies to enable certain features of our Website, and to preserve your preferences and customize your experience when you visit and return. However, most Web browsers provide instructions on how you can block receipt of cookies, delete cookies, or to be prompted before cookies are received. We suggest you go to your Web browser for instructions on how to do this.

Our Website may also automatically record visitor information about use of the site, including a visitor’s Internet Protocol (“IP”) address. Or, if you arrived at our Website by clicking on a link on another Website, we may also take note of that other Website. This information helps us keep our Website content current and also find out the types of information that is most viewed by visitors and how often.

We also use Google’s Analytics services, a service used by many Websites, which involves the use of cookies to collect web traffic data.  Please note that, per the applicable service terms, Google Analytics does not collect personally identifiable information using such cookies, and Google’s use of data collected is subject to Google’s privacy policy.

Social Media

This policy does not apply to information provided in connection with social media Websites. The collection and use of such information is governed by privacy policies applicable to those. Please remember, however, that any information posted on public Facebook Pages such as the Lone Star Success/Texans for Positive Economic Policy is publicly available and not private.

Children’s Privacy

We are strong proponents of children’s privacy. Children under the age of 13 should not provide any information to us using the Website. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13.

We urge all parents to participate in their children’s exploration of the Internet and to teach them about protecting their personal information while online.
