This Privacy Policy applies to the website votejtf.org (the “Site”), owned and operated by Better Way Campaign, a political campaign committee.
Better Way Campaign has created this policy to explain how we collect, use, and protect information you may provide while visiting this Site. We are committed to transparency and responsible data use. We may modify this Privacy Policy from time to time, so please review it periodically. By using this Site, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
Use of Your Information
When you engage with our Site — for example, by signing up for updates, volunteering, or contributing — we may ask you to provide personal information including:
- Name
- Address
- Email address
- Telephone or mobile number
- Other contact or demographic details as voluntarily provided
We may also supplement this information with data from publicly available sources or trusted third-party data providers, consistent with applicable laws.
How We Use Your Information:
We use your information to:
- Operate, improve, and maintain the Site.
- Send you campaign news, updates, and fundraising appeals.
- Communicate with you about volunteering, events, and ways to support the campaign.
- Process contributions in compliance with relevant election laws.
- Analyze engagement and website usage to improve our outreach.
We may share your personal information in the following limited ways:
- Service Providers: With third parties who support our operations (e.g., email marketing platforms, web hosts, payment processors). These providers are only allowed to use your data to serve us.
- Legal Compliance: When required by law, regulation, subpoena, or to protect the rights or safety of our campaign or users.
- Like-minded Organizations: With other political organizations, committees, or candidates that share our mission or objectives — excluding SMS/mobile opt-in data, which we do not share.
By providing your contact details, you consent to receive communications from Better Way Campaign. We may also display your first name (for example, “Jane signed up for updates”) to reflect recent supporter activity on the Site.

We use standard security measures to protect your personal data. Authorized campaign staff or contractors who have a legitimate need to access the information must keep it confidential. While we work to protect your data, no online system is completely secure.

These disclosures are made in accordance with Federal Election Commission rules and other applicable state or local campaign finance laws.
