Garden State Heritage PAC (“the PAC,” “we,” “us” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit our website, sign up for updates, contact us, register for an event or make a contribution, and how we use and share that information.
1. Information we collect
Information you give us. When you fill out a form, RSVP, sponsor an event or contribute, we may collect your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, ZIP code and any message you send us.
Contributor information required by law. New Jersey election law requires us to collect certain information from contributors, including name, address, occupation, employer, employer's address and confirmation that you are a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident.
Payment information. Credit card contributions are processed by a third-party payment processor. We do not store full card numbers on our website.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, ours may collect basic technical information such as your browser type, device, IP address and the pages you visit, using cookies and similar technologies.
2. How we use your information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your questions and requests;
- Send updates about our seminars, events and activities;
- Process event registrations, sponsorships and contributions;
- Meet our reporting and recordkeeping obligations under state and federal law;
- Operate, secure and improve our website.
3. Text messages and email
If you give us your phone number and check the consent box on one of our forms, you agree to receive communications from Garden State Heritage PAC, which may include recurring text messages. Message frequency varies. Text and data rates may apply. You can opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP, or reply HELP for help. Consent is not a condition of any contribution or purchase.
You can unsubscribe from our emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link in any message or by emailing team@gardenstateheritage.com.
We do not sell, rent or share mobile phone numbers or text-messaging consent with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
4. How we share information
We may share your information:
- With government agencies, as required by law. Contributor information is reported to the New Jersey Election Law Enforcement Commission (ELEC) as required. Contributions over $200 are reportable, and these reports are made available to the public.
- With service providers who help us run our website, process payments, send email and text messages, and manage events. They may use your information only to provide services to us.
- For legal reasons, such as responding to a subpoena or court order, or protecting the rights and safety of the PAC and others.
Subject to Section 3, we may share information with like-minded organizations whose goals are consistent with our mission. [CONFIRM OR REMOVE THIS SENTENCE]

We may use cookies and similar tools to understand how visitors use our site and to improve it. You can set your browser to refuse cookies, but some parts of the site may not work as intended.
6. Data security
We use reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards to protect your information. No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Our website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has given us information, contact us and we will delete it.
8. Your choices
You may ask us to update or correct your contact information or to stop sending you communications by emailing team@gardenstateheritage.com. Records we are legally required to keep, such as contribution records, cannot be deleted.
9. Links to other websites
Our site may link to other websites, including payment pages run by third parties. We are not responsible for their privacy practices, and we encourage you to read their policies.
