estricted access limited only to those persons and organizations
necessary to its proper functioning. This access applies to all
electronic and physical security measures. Highly sensitive data

protocol. Our servers are located in a locked, secure
environment.
How do we use the information you provide?
On registration, sign-up and contribution
forms on fcdcc.org, we may ask for your name, address, telephone
number, and e-mail address. We may also ask who, if anyone,
referred you to the site so that we can credit those who are
organizing volunteer support or fundraising for the FCDCC.
We will use your e-mail address to provide you
news and information about the FCDCC. We may also use your zip
code and state to send you e-mail messages about upcoming
campaign events or activities in your area. On occasion, we may
also use the information that you provide online to contact you
for other purposes or to solicit you for contributions. When you
register or sign-up online, we may share your contact
information with successor organizations and other like-minded
Democratic candidates and organizations, and they may contact
you. When you make a contribution to us, we may also exchange
your contributor information with successor organizations and
other like-minded Democratic candidates and organizations, and
they may solicit you (see below for additional information
regarding your contributor information). However, we will not
sell or exchange your credit card information to any other third
party under any circumstances.
When you contribute money online we are
required by federal law to collect and report to the Federal
Election Commission the name, mailing address, occupation and
employer of individuals whose contributions exceed $200 in an
election cycle. These records are available to the public.
However, they cannot be used by other organizations for
fundraising. We also make a note of your telephone number and
email address, which helps us to contact you quickly if
follow-up on your contribution is necessary under Federal
election law. For additional information, visit the FEC website

comments available to the press and public online, identifying
only your city and state.

Use of Photos and Videos
The FCDCC (the "Committee") regularly takes
photographs and video ("Images") of campaign events. Unless a
participant or attendee requests otherwise, his/her attendance
at, or participation in, an event with the Committee or the
Candidate is considered a release to use images obtained during
that event for any lawful purpose, including on the Committee's
website or in other promotional materials.
For the purposes of this policy, “images”
includes any still, digital, video, and photographic images,
recordings, or drawings, which may include sound or other audio
clips. The Committee does not require specific permission from
any or all individuals appearing in photographs or video of the
audience at an event where specific individuals are not easily
identifiable. Your attendance or participation is considered a
release to use said images for any lawful purpose. The Committee
reserves the right to use or not to use images of this type, in
its sole discretion, without seeking any further permission.
In the event that an image of a child is used,
the Committee will not disclose the child's name, age, location,
or other "directory information" without specific written and
verifiable consent by the child's parent or guardian. Alll
images, both solicited and unsolicited, which are submitted to
the Committee become the exclusive property of the Committee.
You understand that you will not receive compensation or other
consideration for any images. You agree that you will not assert
any claim against the Committee, its successor entities or other
parties who use such images, and you relieve the Committee of
liability for its use of the image(s).
By submitting images, you guarantee that you
have obtained the permission of all persons contained in the
image(s), and that it was taken lawfully. You further understand
that images of minors must follow the guidelines listed above.
The Committee reserves the right to edit and use any images as
it sees fit including but not limited to advertising or other
communications in any media, edited or unedited. You waive any
right to inspect or approve the finished images or any printed
or electronic use of the images on the part of the Committee.
If you object to an image of you (or your
child) from appearing in photographs or video of campaign
events, please notify the Committee in writing at:
