Privacy Policy
Effective Date: 15 February 2026
The team at Patricia Stamper for Chairman of the DC Council ("we," "our," or "us") is dedicated to protecting the privacy of our website visitors and users ("you"). This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal data through our website.
By interacting with our website, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.
1. Information Collection
We collect information to better serve our constituents and communicate campaign updates effectively:

• Personal Details: We may collect information you voluntarily provide, such as your name, email address, mailing address, and phone number when you fill out forms, volunteer, or sign up for updates.

• Text Message Opt-In: If you choose to receive SMS updates, we collect your phone number and consent specifically for campaign text messaging services.

• Automated Data: We may automatically collect device-specific information, including IP addresses, cookies, and browsing patterns, to improve our website’s performance and accessibility.

2. Use of Information
We use the information gathered to:

• Communicate Patricia Stamper’s vision for the Council and respond to your inquiries.

• Send newsletters, legislative updates, and relevant District-wide information.

• Analyze website traffic to improve user experience across all eight wards.

• Ensure compliance with DC Office of Campaign Finance (OCF) regulations and other legal obligations.

 
Note on SMS: Your phone number and consent for text messaging will be used solely to deliver campaign-related messages and updates.
3. Information Sharing
We value your trust. We will not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. Data will only be shared when necessitated by law or as stipulated in this policy. We do not share text messaging opt-in data or consent with any third-party affiliates for their own marketing purposes.
4. Data Security
We employ industry-standard security measures to protect your data. While we strive to use every reasonable means to protect your personal information, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure; therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
5. Children’s Privacy
Our services are not directed to individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we become aware that such data has been collected without parental consent, we will take immediate steps to delete it.
6. Amendments to this Policy
We may periodically update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our methods or for other operational, legal, or regulatory purposes. Any amendments will be immediately effective upon posting. We encourage you to check this page periodically to stay updated.
