SSL Security Policy

Know Voters

Our Commitment to Online Security

Know Voters is committed to maintaining a secure online environment for users, donors, volunteers, candidates, political committees, community partners, and visitors who access our website, forms, donation pages, communication tools, and digital services.

Secure Sockets Layer Protection

SSL, or Secure Sockets Layer, is a security technology used to help create an encrypted connection between a user’s web browser and our website. This encryption helps protect information entered through our website from being easily intercepted while it is being transmitted online.

Information Protected Through Secure Pages

Our website may collect information such as names, email addresses, phone numbers, mailing addresses, donation details, volunteer interest forms, contact messages, campaign-related inquiries, and other information submitted by users. When SSL or similar encryption technology is active, data transmitted through secure pages is protected during online transfer.

Additional Security Measures

Know Voters may also use updated encryption protocols, secure payment processors, firewalls, hosting protections, monitoring systems, access controls, password protections, and other security measures designed to reduce the risk of unauthorized access, misuse, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of data.

Limits of Online Security

Although we take reasonable steps to protect user information, no website, server, payment processor, email system, database, or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Users understand that submitting information online carries some risk, and Know Voters cannot guarantee absolute protection against cyberattacks, data breaches, malware, phishing, unauthorized access, technical failures, or third-party service interruptions.

Third-Party Donation Processing

Donation transactions may be processed through third-party payment providers. Know Voters does not directly control the security systems of outside processors, banks, credit card networks, digital wallet providers, or external platforms. Users should review the privacy and security policies of any third-party provider before submitting payment information.

User Responsibility

Users are responsible for protecting their own devices, passwords, internet connections, and personal accounts. We strongly encourage users to avoid submitting sensitive information over public Wi-Fi, shared devices, unsecured browsers, or suspicious links.

Monitoring and Protective Action

Know Voters reserves the right to monitor website activity, investigate suspicious behavior, restrict access, block harmful traffic, update security systems, and take action to protect our website, users, donors, and organization.

Acknowledgment and Liability

By using this website, you acknowledge that you understand the limits of online security and agree that Know Voters is not liable for damages arising from unauthorized access, technical failure, third-party processor issues, or risks beyond our reasonable control.
