Last Updated: January 30, 2020

This Privacy Policy explains how Voto Latino Inc. (“Voto Latino”, “we” or “us”) and its subsidiaries and affiliated companies collects, uses and discloses information about you. This Privacy Policy applies to information we collect when you use our website, mobile application and other online products and services linking to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Services”).

We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make changes, we will notify you by revising the date at the top of the policy and, in some cases, we may provide you with additional notice (such as adding a statement to our homepage or sending you an email notification). We encourage you to review the Privacy Policy whenever you access the Services or otherwise interact with us to stay informed about our information practices and the choices available to you.

We collect information you provide directly to us. For example, we may collect information when you make a donation, request information, register to vote, fill out a form, send us an email, sign up to receive updates, sign a petition, make a purchase, or otherwise communicate with us. The types of information we may collect include your name, email address, postal address, phone number, t-shirt size, voter registration information, and other information you choose to provide.

Web beacons (also known as “pixel tags” or “clear GIFs”) are electronic images that may be used in our Services or emails and help deliver cookies, count visits, understand usage and campaign effectiveness and determine whether an email has been opened and acted upon. For more information about cookies, and how to disable them, please see “Your Choices” below.

Information We Collect from Other Sources
We may also obtain information about you from other sources. For example, we may obtain information about you when you purchase our products from a merchant, Rock the Vote, your public voter file, and other publicly available sources and combine that with information we collect through our Services.

Social Sharing Features

The Services may offer social sharing features and other integrated tools (such as the Facebook “Like” button), which let you share actions you take on our Services on other platforms, and vice versa. Your use of such features enables sharing information with your friends or the public, depending on your privacy settings on the social sharing platforms you use. Please visit the privacy policies of the social sharing platforms you use for more information about the purpose and scope of their data collection and processing.

We may engage others to provide analytics services and serve advertisements on our behalf across the web and in mobile applications. These entities may use cookies, web beacons, device identifiers and other technologies to collect information about your use of the Services and other websites and applications, including your IP address, web browser, pages viewed, time spent on pages, links clicked and conversion information. This information may be used by Voto Latino and others to, among other things, analyze and track data, determine the popularity of certain content, deliver advertising and content targeted to your interests on our Services and other websites and better understand your online activity.

Third-Party Tools

Our Services use third-party tools to provide certain features or to assist with the operation of the Services. These third parties may collect your information directly from you on their own behalf. Under those circumstances, the third party’s privacy policy governs its use of that data. For example, the voter registration tool on the Voto Latino website and VoterPal app is provided and operated by Rock the Vote. Information you provide to them is governed by their privacy policy.
