We collect personal information from visitors when they register to join an organization, subscribe to a newsletter, or take action on an issue using our service. The personal information we collect is always voluntarily submitted by you. This information is used by us to communicate with you in the future (if you have given your permission for such contact), to send messages (when authorized by you) from you to policymakers, and to understand your interests and activities. We keep confidential all personal information entered during registration. If, for any reason, you would like to be removed from any or all of our email lists, you can unsubscribe by simply visiting your subscription management page on our website and clicking the unsubscribe button, or you can opt-out of future mailings by simply stating this desire in a reply to any email we send you.

Protecting your privacy As part of our commitment to ensuring the privacy of our visitors, we do not sell or exchange names or any other personally identifiable information about our online visitors and members with, for example, mass marketers. We may also provide personal information to third parties on a completely confidential basis to enable such third parties to perform certain tasks, such as maintain a membership database or send email alerts and/or newsletters, on our behalf. These third party providers are committed to protecting the privacy of our members and subscribers, and will utilize your information only to provide the services that we contract for. We may share aggregate information about website usage and traffic patterns, stripped of any personally identifiable information, to third parties to comply with various reporting obligations and for business or marketing purposes.
