Privacy & funding transparency
How we handle your information — and how we’re funded.
Niwot Together is a volunteer campaign asking you to sign up, pledge, and vote. Here is plainly what we collect when you do, how we use it, and how this campaign is paid for.
What we collect
We only collect what you choose to give us through the forms on this site: your name and email when you capture your email or pledge to vote; your contact details and interests when you sign up to volunteer; and your name, affiliation, and statement when you submit an endorsement.
If you arrived here from a link in an email newsletter you already subscribe to, that link carried your name and email address so this page could show them back to you before asking. Nothing was added to our list until you pressed Confirm. Close that box without confirming and we hold no record of you at all. No other organization gives us its list.
We never collect or store payment-card data. This site does not process any card numbers, and no card information is ever transmitted to or stored by us. Donations are handled entirely off-site by PayPal (see funding transparency below).
Our site analytics are privacy-first, aggregate, and collect no personal information. We also advertise to reach voters — on Google, and on Facebook and Instagram — and each of those companies’ measurement tags runs on this site and sets cookies on your device. They report to us only in aggregate — how many people who saw an ad went on to act, never who you are. You can turn off ad personalization at myadcenter.google.com for Google, and at facebook.com/adpreferences for Meta.
How we use it
We use your information to run the campaign: to send you updates about the incorporation vote, to coordinate volunteer efforts, to record and display endorsements you have agreed to share, and to comply with Colorado campaign-finance reporting where the law requires it.
Any form on this site that asks for your email adds you to the campaign list — pledging, signing up for updates, volunteering, donating, or picking a poster. Each of those forms says so on the page before you send it. You can unsubscribe from any email we send, at any time, and we keep a record of when and where you signed up so we can tell you exactly what you agreed to.
We do not use your information for any purpose you did not sign up for.
Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We do not share it with any other organization for their own use. We share data only with the service providers who help us operate this site (for example, email delivery and hosting), and only to the extent needed to provide that service, or when disclosure is required by Colorado campaign-finance law or other legal obligation.
Retention & your choices
We keep your information for as long as the campaign is active and as long as Colorado campaign-finance record-keeping rules require, and then we delete it.
You can opt out at any time: every email includes an unsubscribe link, and you can email us at contact@niwottogether.org to ask us to correct or delete the information you have given us.
Funding transparency
Paid for by Niwot Together, a Colorado ballot-issue committee. We register and report our contributions and expenditures as required of a Colorado issue committee.
Donations are processed off-site by PayPal, on an account that belongs to Niwot Together alone — it is never shared with any other organization. As stated above, no payment-card data is ever collected or stored by this site.
