Privacy Policy

Heart of Texas Conservatives PAC ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through our website at heartoftexasconservatives.org, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Information We Collect

When you fill out a form on our website, we collect the information you provide directly to us:

• Name — so we know who is signing up or contacting us.
• Email address — used to send you our email newsletter and updates about elections, events, and volunteer opportunities.
• Mobile phone number — collected only if you choose to provide it and check the box consenting to receive recurring SMS text messages from Heart of Texas Conservatives PAC. If you do not check the consent box, we do not store a phone number.
• Messages you send us — the contents of any message you submit through our contact or signup forms.

When you submit a form, we also record the date and time of your submission, the page you submitted it from, your IP address, and your browser information. We keep this alongside the exact consent language you were shown, as a record of your opt-in.

How We Use Your Information

• To send email newsletters and updates about local elections, ballot measures, policy issues, events, and volunteer opportunities.
• To send recurring SMS text messages — but only to supporters who have expressly opted in to our text message program. Our SMS program is described in our Terms of Service and on our SMS Program Terms page.
• To respond to messages and questions you send us.
• To organize volunteer activities you have expressed interest in.
• To maintain records of consent for our text message program.

Mobile Information and Text Messaging

No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. All other categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

You can leave our text message program at any time by replying STOP to any message. Reply HELP for help, or contact us at info@heartoftexasconservatives.org. Message frequency varies, and message and data rates may apply.

Cookies and Analytics

Our website uses privacy-friendly, cookieless analytics to understand overall site traffic — for example, which pages are visited most. This analytics data is aggregated and does not identify individual visitors. We do not use advertising cookies and we do not sell visitor data to anyone.

Sharing of Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We share information only with service providers who help us operate this website and deliver our email and text communications (such as our website host, database provider, and messaging platform), and only as needed to provide those services. These providers are not permitted to use your information for their own purposes. We may also disclose information if required by law.

Data Retention

We retain signup and consent records for as long as you remain subscribed to our communications, and afterward as needed to demonstrate consent history, comply with legal obligations, and resolve disputes. If you ask us to delete your information, we will do so unless we are required to keep it.

Your Rights and Choices

• Text messages: reply STOP to any message to unsubscribe at any time.
• Email: use the unsubscribe link in any email, or contact us to be removed.
• Access, correction, and deletion: you may request a copy of the information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it by emailing info@heartoftexasconservatives.org.

Children's Privacy

Our website and communications are intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The current version will always be posted on this page with its effective date.
